Turner is very nice and courteous. He’s a good listener and asks good questions. However, I’m not sure Turner has the risk or appetite to be an early stage investor. His lack of operating expertise makes me question what value he’d add to our domain. His fund check sizes are minuscule so I fail to see what value he can add from a strategic or monetary front? Hard pass.

Joel is a great early investor to have on your cap table. He's not only an investor but someone who's opened up his network and given me a lot of time to iterate and strategize which is fundamental in the early stages of launching a business. He's supportive and doesn't impose his will - instead he's spent a lot of time helping me think through various critical decisions to find the best outcome for the business. He's always very happy to introduce investors, employees or strategic stakeholders and quite often does so without being asked. Finally, he lets you just get on with your business - no silly requests or distractions.

When we signed the term sheet, Gil told us that now he works for us. He really meant it. He's very involved in the company (but not too much), he wants to learn as much as he can about our space, he has great product ideas (even for an industry he's not that familiar with), and he tries to find connections whenever we need intros. He's one of the smartest and fast-thinking investors I know. His way of thinking 10x may sometimes be too intense and a bit hard to handle when you're living in the day-to-day but on the flip-side he will never let you settle. I consider myself lucky to have him on board.

I've known Tom for years, and he's one of the most singularly self-interested, self-aggrandizing, and decidedly unhelpful investors in the US or Europe. In each of roles, current and prior, he's only ever been interested in Tom. Pick another partner at GV, or look elsewhere for capital.

Roy genuinely cares about the tech community and its role in the world. Present, engaged, and candid. Smarter than he needs to be and uncommonly generous with his intelligence and insight. Whether he funds you or not, you definitely want Roy in your corner. A true mensch.

Ah Adam, the one that got away. What a super guy. Took the time to understand me as a founder and dig into an unsexy industry. Respectful, responsive, clear and transparent in his process and decisions. In the end he passed but it was done with class. I’d happily spend time doing it again. His team is great too.

Received a warm intro through a mutual acquaintance. Had a very good meeting and he seemed very knowledgeable and visibly excited about our solution and product roadmap. Concluded the meeting by promising to follow up in 24 hours. Eventually followed up about a month later after multiple updates from our end.
