Note from measured.vc
We use a data-driven process to select for high-signal seed and pre-seed deals that have the best chance to generate outsized cash-on-cash returns.
We believe that using a systematic process to select only the most promising startups is crucial to stacking the deck in our favor.
With this in mind, we have developed a data-driven process that takes into account the unique nature of early-stage investments.
Our selection process scores startups on a multitude of factors, and gives us an objective measure of the likelihood they will have a successful exit in the future.
While we use more than 100 data points to make our investment decisions, we are essentially trying to answer two big questions with our data-driven process for every deal:
- Is there an opportunity for 50-100x returns?
We broadly define opportunity by market size and timing. In addition, we take into account valuation and capital efficiency to project their impact on our returns.
- Is this a high-signal deal?
We define “high-signal” as a startup with market traction led by a great team with the support of high-quality co-investors.
Dealflow
- We source seed and pre-seed deals with a strong tech component and a capital efficient business model.
- Our primary industries are SaaS and Fintech.
- Most of the syndicate deals are sourced from my personal network.
- As an angel investor I have co-invested with many top-tier VCs including Sequoia, a16z, Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, 776, Bessemer, RRE, and Y Combinator. This syndicate will have similar quality deal-flow.
- Check sizes range from $100k to $250k.
- I will syndicate all on-thesis deals where at least a $100k allocation can be secured.
- If you have any questions about the syndicate, please feel free to send me a message through AngelList or by email (tony@measured.vc) and we can setup a call to discuss.
Policies
- We accept all active investors as LPs, and strive to keep investment minimums low so that everyone can participate.
- There is no management fee. You only pay carry if the deal is profitable.
- There is no obligation to invest in any deal.
- Skin in the game: The syndicate lead's investment in each deal will be no less than 1% of the aggregate Capital Commitments of Limited Partners.
- The syndicate will offer follow-on investments as they are available.
- LPs should be aware that early-stage investing is inherently risky, and may result in the loss of your entire investment.
- LPs should be aware that even for successful companies there may not be a liquidity opportunity for 10+ years.
