We’re more than investors. We’re your secret weapon. From strategic consulting, technical development, and go-to-market strategy, we help founders of AI SaaS startups and more redefine their industries.
For Founders That Plan to Lead.
Mindgrub Ventures partners with AI SaaS-based and other ambitious startups to turn bold ideas into breakout companies. Through targeted capital and hands-on expertise, our award-winning product strategy, technical architecture, and go-to-market support give founders the tools they need to scale smarter and faster.
Don’t just build a product. Build the whole industry.
Ready to Break the Mold?
Take a look at our investment criteria to see if we’re the right fit for each other.
We typically invest in companies that meet the following criteria:
- Post-revenue, with $25,000+ in EBITDA, or more than $50,000 raised through a friends-and-family round
- Seeking less than $1.5 million to close the current round
- Willing to offer up to a 30% equity stake
We’re especially interested in opportunities where a relatively modest investment can unlock a meaningful milestone, significantly reduce risk, and create a substantial increase in valuation. Sound like your company?
