Our thesis-driven investment approach.

When we invest, we’re all-in.

 

AI-Native Apps

Software will transform as AI-native apps unlock value in unstructured data, disrupt traditional enterprise SaaS, and realize the “no-code” promise.

Vertical SaaS

Vertical operating systems and marketplaces will replace hacked-together tech stacks to bring business operations together in a single solution.

B2B Fintech

The future of finance is embedded. Any non-financial org will be able to offer financial services and tools previously only available via banks.
