WHY US

    We sat on the investment committee. We built the layer we wished the firm had.

    Charlotte and Reid are second-time founders who have spent their careers on both sides of the fundraising table. Between them: more than half a billion dollars raised for founders, a nine-figure exit, and the rarest combination in venture tech. Investor instinct, founder scar tissue, and the technical chops to build the product themselves.

    Capwave gives investors back the two things that actually make a fund: judgment and relationships.

    THE FOUNDERS

    Proven investors. Proven founders. Engineers who ship.

    "The best investors will spend their time on relationships and judgment. Everything else should already be done by the time they sit down."
