Investment Thesis

The AI Revolution is Just Beginning

We're in the earliest innings of the AI transformation. The companies being built today will define the next decade of technology. Here's where we believe the biggest opportunities lie.

Our Conviction

AI is not just another platform shift—it's a fundamental reimagining of how software is built, deployed, and experienced. We believe the most valuable companies will be those that deeply understand both the technical capabilities and limitations of AI, while solving real problems for real users.

We invest in founders who combine technical excellence with product vision, who move fast but think long-term, and who are building businesses that can become category leaders.

Foundation Models & Core AI

The foundation model layer continues to evolve rapidly. We invest in teams pushing the boundaries of what's possible—whether through novel architectures, training methodologies, multimodal capabilities, or specialized models for specific domains.

What we look for:

  • Novel approaches to model efficiency and performance
  • Specialized foundation models for verticals (medical, legal, scientific)
  • Multimodal systems that understand text, images, video, and audio
  • Teams with deep research backgrounds and publication track records

Enterprise AI Applications

Enterprises are rapidly adopting AI, but they need solutions built for their specific workflows, security requirements, and scale. We back companies building AI-native tools that transform how businesses operate.

What we look for:

  • Clear ROI and measurable value for enterprise buyers
  • Integration with existing enterprise workflows and tools
  • Strong data security, privacy, and compliance capabilities
  • Founders with deep domain expertise in their target vertical

AI Infrastructure & Developer Tools

Every AI company needs infrastructure—for training, deployment, monitoring, and optimization. We invest in the picks and shovels that enable the AI ecosystem to scale.

What we look for:

  • Developer-first products with exceptional DX
  • Solutions to real pain points in the AI development lifecycle
  • Strong technical moats and defensibility
  • Network effects or data flywheel potential

Consumer AI & Prosumer Tools

AI is enabling entirely new consumer experiences and democratizing capabilities that were once reserved for experts. We back companies reimagining consumer categories with AI at the core.

What we look for:

  • Products that feel magical and delightful to use
  • Strong product-market fit signals and organic growth
  • Sustainable business models (not just feature demos)
  • Founders with deep consumer product intuition

What We Don't Invest In

Being focused means saying no to great companies that don't fit our thesis

Pure Services Businesses

AI consulting or professional services without scalable product revenue.

Non-AI Core Businesses

Companies where AI is just a feature, not the core value proposition.

Late-Stage Companies

Series B+ rounds where we can't add meaningful strategic value.
