We invest in founders who are reshaping outdated industries. We believe in a world where top tier fintech products help the 99% grow their wealth and build businesses. Where everyday people have transparent, efficient, and attentive healthcare experiences. Where managers and front-line employees in legacy industries have tools that save time, increase transparency, and take minutes to learn (vertical SaaS).
