We exist to fund progress, not hype.
Early founders don’t need a pitch-deck theater. They need a first push: $500–$5K, real feedback, and believers who show up before the world claps.
The problem we’re fixing
There’s a dead zone before VC, before traction, before “proof.” That’s exactly when founders need help.
Founders
Need small money to validate + ship. Not a year of fundraising.
Micro-investors
Want early access and to support builders directly — with small checks.
What we believe
A simple set of rules. If we break them, the product breaks.
Execution beats storytelling.
Progress updates are the real pitch. The best founders ship, learn, and iterate in public.
Small checks can change everything.
A tiny amount at the right time can turn a stalled idea into momentum.
Access should be fair.
Discovery shouldn’t depend on existing followers, loudness, or status.
Trust is built with transparency.
Backers deserve clarity: what’s the milestone, what changed, what shipped.
Builders and backers should meet directly.
No gatekeepers. No theater. Just a clear idea, a clear milestone, and a conversation.
We optimize for long-term believers.
The goal isn’t a one-time raise. It’s compounding support as you keep shipping.
What we won’t do
- —We won’t force pitch decks, buzzwords, or “fundraising performance.”
- —We won’t hide the process behind gatekeepers or pay-to-win visibility.
- —We won’t optimize for hype cycles that punish real builders.
Build in public. Earn believers.
Post a milestone. Share progress. Let small backers help you move faster.
