The People's VC
We're don't believe in high burn, go big or go broke models. We don't push founders to take more money than they need. We look for founders who are cash efficient, scrappy, and pragmatic. We focus on companies with $2mm to $30mm of run-rate revenue, with year over year growth of 20% to 50%+ depending on revenue. We'll invest anywhere in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and broader Europe. We prefer to lead, but also follow. Our check is $2mm. We like plain-vanilla preferred stock in traditional growth rounds, inside rounds, small rounds, extensions, recaps, and secondaries. Unlike other VC, we like hearing from founders directly.
