For our founders

Announcing Wireframe Fund II

Driven people, pioneering products, singular purpose

Our focus.

Building an extraordinary company is (very) hard. But we believe in founders setting out to do just that, while also making a positive impact on our world. If you embody all of these traits and you’re just beginning your own journey, please get in touch.

Tell us about your company

People

You're driven by a clear vision for an extraordinary company that you're uniquely qualified to build.

Product

Your groundbreaking product can re-define an existing large market, or create an entirely new one.

Purpose

Your mission is a strategic advantage - a North Star that attracts talent, capital & belief even when the path is hard.

Hover and explore our vision.

Our approach.

Stage

First check

We invest early, at Seed or Pre-seed. We will invest pre-revenue (and at times pre-product), but we look for a very clear & compelling articulation of your business. Our initial check typically ranges from $500K-$2M and we can either lead or join a high-quality syndicate.

Style

Hands on

We build strong working relationships with our founding teams. From the moment we invest, we are intensely focused on supporting your path to product/market fit and your institutional Series A.

Theme

High conviction

You've chosen to invest yourself in a mission that matters to people & planet. We've chosen to invest ourselves in supporting founders exactly like you.

Our Approach. Our Approach. Our Approach.
