Betaworks Ventures

About

We invest in surprising new consumer behaviors and trends powered by frontier technologies.

We’re usually among the first institutional investors. We’ve backed more than 150 companies; some that you may have heard of include Giphy, Anchor, Gimlet Media, Product Hunt, Medium, Kickstarter, and Tumblr. We invest at pre-seed and seed stage and our typical check size ranges from $100,000 to $500,000.

We go deep into new categories through Betaworks Camp, our structured pre-seed investment program. Areas we’ve focused on include augmented reality, computer vision, voice interfaces, conversational software, and live+interactive.

As our name suggests, we like betas – we rarely invest pre-product. If you have something great, we’d love to speak with you.
