About

basecase writes the first check to builders who are still dreaming, tinkering, and exploring what they want to create.

no decks, no pitch meetings

* i write the very first check into companies

* i lead rounds with $1-2m checks, no board seat

* i work with founders pre-traction, pre-product, and pre-idea

* i am often an early beta tester, active user, and paying customer of the products founders build

* i put my network to work for founders, making introductions to candidates, customers, and investors

* i spend most of my time with people who have not yet started companies and don't take pitch meetings

* former founders who are driven to make a comeback

* solo founders who've been told they need a co-founder

* underdogs who feel deeply compelled to prove people wrong

* builders who can't help themselves from bringing ideas to life

* futurists who have strong convictions about where the world is going

* anyone who has been told they are too intense, too curious, or too impatient
