Kevin bills himself as the Leroy Jenkins of angel investors. This is accurate. He moves quickly and checks primarily for founder / market fit. Kevin is hands off, but also highly supportive and always happy to provide an introduction. He’s been an investor with me twice now, no regrets / all positive.

Met Dean 4 years ago when they just started fund. They made a seed investment decision in two weeks. Took a board seat. Dean is a former entrepreneur - took the company he cofounded as CEO to IPO and $1.5B market cap before exiting. He has been in my shoes and knows what a founder goes through. He is empathetic and very supportive. He loves to help and dives deep when asked. He is very good to building financial models and I have relied on him to build ours and keep it current. They are new to the VC world so are operating a smaller fund. They don't have the connections to other VC funds the way more established funds in the valley do. They funded two hardware companies but are now wary of hardware like most VCs as its a longer ramp-up and needs more capital than they can provide alone. Above everything they are honest, mean what they say and do what they say. Its a wonderful fund for a seed stage start up.

Bilal is a good investor. He's really driven by social signals and syndicate. If you have access to good investors he is responsive, else can be fairly flakey. He is involved post investment, and his firm certainly brings strong credibility to the cap table.

Honestly, I've only met with this investor for a review of a blog post he was about to publish on the landscape of the generation of startups revolving around Cloud Data Warehouses. First thing, he knows his stuff and definitely does his homework. An interesting person, and would definitely (try to) recontact him if going down the VC funding road for a European startup with a product in the data munging business... On the responsiveness part, I'm guessing like most, he is very responsive when interested (here he was interested in having my expert opinion on his piece) but very less so if not.

For context: I met with Niv once, via a warm intro from a Shrug portfolio company. He did not invest. I've left 10/10 reviews for other VCs who have not invested, so I consider my 1/10 review to be unbiased by his decision to not invest. Niv showed up to the meeting completely unprepared, acted like meeting was an inconvenience, and asked questions that indicated that he wasn't listening. He then completely ghosted, despite more than enough follow ups (which I know were read since I use tracking). Ghosting before a meeting is ok, I get it, but ghosting after a meeting is disrespectful. Of more than 50 investors I have pitched, Niv is the only one who has done this.

Jon Callaghan has been an ideal partner for growing my business from seed to exit. There were multiple times where he could have optimized for himself or the VCs in general, and he always chose the path that was in the best long term interest of the company. I have already worked with him a second time which is the strongest vote of confidence I gave someone.
