What if the pursuit of predictable returns is holding venture back?

Is this the highest signal startup conference speaker lineup in Arizona history? The 2027 MatCap Annual is going to be legendary. (Made possible by @goodwinlaw)!

Hosting a office hours session with @davj on Monday for the @matcapvc portfolio. Opening up 3-5 slots for exceptional founders who want to join and soak it in. Shoot me a DM and we can take it from there.

Tell us what your startup does in one sentence, and we will tell you how fundable the idea is, with reasons included in each answer. We're often wrong, but never on our own threads ;). Okay, go!

Hi @harris - does your funding tool get me closer to the investors or just let me know that investors exist that in theory fund what i'm doing? If it doesn't make intros, it doesn't move the needle.

Warm intros paths are for bad founders. You either have homies that are gunna vouch for you or you don't. If you don't, get some homies. This isn't hard.

Hi @MetalRaise heard that you start at $1,000/mo. Is this true?

Ya this is why @matcapvc exists. Thousands of intros later, I never ask investors for a fee. I never ask for an allocation. I never give the investors a reason to second guess investing in that founder by having funky terms. This is why founders work w/ me and investors like me.

Guy just decided to re-invent how a venture capital allocates capital and crushes it every day, wtf.

100 unique firms and 15 angels have taken intros to MatCap portfolio companies so far in 2026. Thankful to my own investors for the chance to pioneer a new category in the funding stack. Here's to the next 100!
