For funds and family offices

Deploy capital into companies built to scale.

We do the upstream work, so your team doesn't have to. Each company in our pipeline arrives diligence-ready. You spend your time on the conviction call, not on chasing data.

How it works

From pipeline to term sheet, with the noise stripped out.

Four steps from partnership to a closed round.

Step 01

Onboard

You tell us your thesis. Geography, sector, ticket size, stage. We calibrate our pipeline filter to match.

Step 02

Pipeline access

Each cohort is small, with around ten vetted companies matched to your thesis. Known risks already addressed.

Step 03

Warm intro

Pick the companies you want to meet. We make founder intros directly, with context on both sides. Companies that fit, with the data room ready for inspection. Saves time on both sides.

Step 04

Diligence support

Artifacts that confirm we have closed the gaps. Validated by top-tier partners including CMS Wistrand and Pyyne. Faster due diligence on your side.

Why partner with us

The diligence rigour your partners apply, applied upstream.

We are not a placement agent. We are not a marketplace. We are an analyst team that shares its working, on the founders we believe in, with the funds whose thesis fits.

Pre-vetted to your standard

Every company in your brief has been through the same diligence rigour your partners would apply. Notes, models, and risk flags attached.

You see the working

The cohort cuts that worked, the ones that did not, the open questions still on the board. The same view a partner writes internally.

Calibrated to your thesis

Sector, geography, stage, ticket size, even the kind of founder you back. Your monthly brief is shaped around it. Not the same list everyone gets.
