About
We back technical founders building technical products from developer tools to infrastructure, AI to security.
Investment approach
- Thesis
- We believe the next generation of category-defining software won’t be born in pitch decks. It’ll be hacked together in VSCode at 2 a.m. by someone who deeply understands the problem they’re solving.Source (opens in a new tab)
- Traction requirement
- You don’t need revenue to impress us. You need conviction, clarity, and curiosity.
