About Usman Gul
I was a part of early team at DoorDash (2016-18). Most recently, I founded Airlift that went on to raise $120m+ in venture financing, but was ultimately unsuccessful amidst the market crash of 2022.
I am now building Metal, a platform that allows founders to be more targeted & intentional in fundraising. I can be reached at gul@metal.so.

Companies & Work

Apollo Group
Backed by a16z and YC, Metal is building an AI-native operating system for founders raising venture rounds. Metal brings proprietary intelligence on the venture ecosystem, enabling founders to identify the "most likely" investors, research various firms, and identify who they know that can introduce them to specific investors.
More than 100 YC founders have signed as paying customers.
