Co-founded by super connectors Marc Nathan, Elijah May and Paul O'Brien, Funded House was originally created for the express purpose of connecting investors with companies seeking a later stage investment. While we remain true to that purpose, several of our VC friends have indicated that they are also angel investors from time-to-time. So, following SXSW 2023, the decision was made to create an official Funded House Portfolio and include investable startups of all stages.

We also now offer a proprietary Growth Viability Assessment and issue corresponding Growth Viability Score, which makes it easier for investors to see where their money can have the most impact.

Too many investors told us they don't know where to find great startups. Too many startups told us they don't know where to find the right investors. We decided it should not be that hard for people who are looking for each other to connect. In a world where Match Group and Indeed are both worth billions, we think there's a place for someone committed to radically improving the investor/entrepreneur matching process.

Our Funded House Portfolio and Top 20 Lookbook are carefully curated and deliberately designed to make it easy for investors to find the information they are looking for. But that's only half the equation. Our super connector team is tasked with with learning who people are, in addition to what they are looking for, so that the matches we make create relationships that work.
