Profile
Together, we write $25-500K checks into early-stage companies building in AI, deeptech, and future of work. Community has always been important to us. Previously, we built the Archive, a co-living house of 22 founders, engineers, and researchers (featured on the Today Show!).
Now, we host monthly events, including small AI dinners, fireside chats, and Builder Hours for folks thinking about starting something new. If you’re in the Bay Area, join us.
