How to use this directory

  • Search for a firm, a city or a focus, or filter by stage, sector and region. The list updates as you type.
  • Filter by stage first. It is the fastest way to set aside firms that cannot invest in you at all.
  • Read the firm's own words. Our stage and sector labels are shorthand for filtering. Each profile shows the stage and focus in the firm's own words, which is what counts.
  • Open a regional directory for local context. Firms in the Bay Area, New York, Boston and Los Angeles link to their row in that region's directory, which adds notes on the local investor landscape.
  • Keep a shortlist as you go. Add to my research saves a firm to your research list, and Download my shortlist turns your picks into a spreadsheet with the source links.

Frequently asked questions

How many venture capital firms are in this directory?

257 firms, each with enough public evidence to profile accurately. 149 are in the San Francisco Bay Area, 33 in New York, 18 in Boston and Cambridge and 11 in Los Angeles.

Which firms write first checks?

Filter by the Pre-seed or Seed stage to see the firms that say they write first checks, then confirm on each firm's site that it still invests at that stage. For the Bay Area, the pre-seed and seed directory compares them side by side.

Is this a list of investors who will fund my startup?

No. Inclusion means a firm has enough public information to profile, not that it is investing now or would invest in you. A category match is a reason to research a firm further, not a prediction.
