Mitra is thoughtful, sharp and kind. She partnered with us to refine and position our pitch and the end result was orders of magnitude better than what we had come up with. She is clear about next steps and sticks to those as promised. It's hard to not think of her as a friend instead of an investor, but she navigates that very well. I'd recommend anybody who has the chance to bring her and SPC to their board to do so.

I have only amazing things to say about NFX. James pulled the trigger on a term sheet the week of March 12 (right as markets were cratering due to COVID) which showed a lot of courage. Their process was also very fast (3-4 weeks from 1st meeting to $ in bank). Since they invested, it's been invaluable to work with James and NFX. Great advice, lots of good operating experience. Lots of good brand halo too with other SV investors. Tough negotiators on price & ESOP, we took a lower price to work with them (worth it thus far).

Sara and Kerry of TWV are good people. That's rare for investors. They are sticklers for numbers, very detailed oriented, and not the most experienced investors out there, but I can honestly say they are honest, mean what they say, and won't bullshit you.

I'd met Ryan through a warm intro and pitched via Zoom. He ultimately did not invest. Pitching Ryan (and Weekend Fund partner Vedika) was the single best experience I've ever had pitching an investor. Despite the product being highly technical beyond Ryan's scope, he truly listened, asked intelligent questions, and riffed on the idea with me. The rejection email was very well thought out, and clearly not the classic cop-out feedback most VCs give. He's been highly responsive via email since, and is always willing to field updates. Ryan is simply a nice person.

Jai has been great to work with and is genuinely good person. He’s a quick responder and decisive. Despite not investing, he’s made incredibly valuable introductions that have been hugely helpful. 100% recommend.

Mor Assia, the founding partner of iAngels, is responsive to the needs of the stakeholder community. Though proactive, the group is struggling to attract great ventures, which could be a little disappointing for the investment community. I believe the stakeholders have made some mistakes with their crypto investment thesis. Overall, I believe they are dedicated to developing a reliable investment platform.

Look, none of us are here to pat each other on the back and dance around soft letdowns. Delian understands what his job is (and what it isn't), knows where to be fast and efficient, and doesn't waste time- his, or yours. He's lightning quick on email responses, totally throws himself into your world, made time to visit in-person as fast as possible, and asks the hard questions to (quickly) get a sense of what it's like to walk in your shoes. Every interaction with him (and Keith) was to-the-point, efficient, energizing, and blunt; if your baby is ugly, he'll do you a favor and tell you. He wrote us a thoughtful pass note (more than "not a fit at this time"), offered to continue to give advice until we could be in a more relevant stage to FF in the future, and it was obvious he backs his quick action up with lots of thought. If you want to push yourself, Delian has high expectations. If intensity is uncomfortable, then don't waste your time.

Got a warm intro to Paul, who to his credit was quick to respond, and made it easy to set up a meeting. However, he was totally unprepared when the meeting happened, and checked out from the conversation as soon as he was done introducing himself. Though he interrupted several times, none of his questions were relevant. Was clearly distracted with something else the whole time. I knew it wasn't going anywhere and, as politely as I could, ended the call after about 10 minutes. Would not recommend.

Super thoughtful around anything gaming and clear world-class partner at a top-tier fund. Now I know why they’re considered one of the best. Unfortunately they passed on my round, but I recommend Mitch and Benchmark to any founder who wants to build a category defining business.

Amanda has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Extremely helpful, lots of great feedback, and asks lots of questions we frankly should've been asking ourselves already.

We believe that there are always two sides to every story and accountability goes both ways, so we want to allow for investors to respond to their own reviews. Please navigate to the link below to leave a reply.
