// What We Look For
Three qualities define the founders we back.
// 01
Technical depth
An earned, unfakeable understanding of the problem — gained through years of practice, research, or operating experience close to the ground truth.
// 02
Product conviction
A sharp, opinionated sense of what to build and what to ignore, and the discipline to hold that line through the chaos of early company-building.
// 03
Capital discipline
An institutional instinct for capital — raising only what is needed, deploying it toward durable compounding, and running the company as a long-term enterprise.
