Investment thesis

Back founders going after big markets (big business needs a big TAM to grow into). In consumer and fintech, we look for execution excellence and deep local operating knowledge. For AI, we back technical founders and preferably has good/exceptional track record in the space. Across all of it, what I'm really underwriting is ambition and paired with the ability to execute on it.

Full thesis

Communication style

Direct and numbers-first. We pair every merit with the consideration. Skeptical of superlatives e.g. "largest," "first," "10x cheaper" until they're independently validated.

Red flags

capped ambition

projections that top out below our underwriting threshold

mandate mismatch

2.If a well-funded incumbent copied your product in six months, what would you still have that they wouldn't?

3.Walk me through one customer's unit economics

What convinces them

•A market big enough that a $50–100M+ exit in four to five years is realistic, not a stretch.

•Evidence you can execute, not just spot the opportunity: local operating knowledge in consumer/fintech, technical depth in AI.

•Unit economics that compound through repeat behavior, not one-off spikes.

•A moat that survives an incumbent copying your product in six months.
