fueling founders Building Deeptech software companies

Early Stage Venture Capital Fund

Apertu Capital is an early stage venture capital fund that invests in deep tech software startups, from pre-seed to Series A stages of fundraising. The fund focuses on software companies creating new products essential for artificial intelligence, cloud, and developer tools. We very early on cultivate strong relationships with software founders, including engaging with founders from the beginning, this may include charting a launch strategy. We invest in founders who understand technological roadblocks intimately and have built new software solutions that solve the biggest problems. Our fund has a strong and active relationship with open source and other avid software communities. Because of our experienced team and our history of working with startups, founders trust us for advice on building a business around innovative software. This access provides us an advantage when capturing value and driving returns for our investors.

We prioritize opportunities where our founders demonstrate rare talent for pushing the margins of software innovation. Our deeptech investments improve programmer productivity and solve the hardest problems outstanding in software.
