For investors

Two ways to invest with us.

Choose a diversified fund investment or select individual syndicate deals.

The index approach

Rolling Fund

First access to every investment we make. Subscribe once; capital is called quarterly over sixteen quarters.

  • Every deal, automatically
  • Quarterly subscriptions on AngelList
Join the Rolling Fund

Deal by deal

The Syndicate

Pick and choose company by company, at the same terms as the Rolling Fund, with a live Mentor Pitch and Super Memo on every deal.

  • Opt in per deal from $2,500
  • Dues waived for fund LPs. Founding members receive their first year free.

Some fast-moving or capacity-constrained investments are available only through the Rolling Fund.

The information on this page is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security, or personalized investment advice. Any offering — including the Rolling Fund and syndicate SPVs — is made solely through definitive offering documents on AngelList, available to eligible investors, which you must review in full.
