Early Bets on
Big Ideas
|BE| stands for Butterfly Effect—the principle that a small change in initial conditions can lead to vastly greater outcomes.
We invest $25-50K at the earliest stages into companies building mission-critical infrastructure. Our thesis: the smallest checks at the right moment can create infinite outcomes.

We back founders before product-market fit, when conviction matters most
People Over Resumes
