About Antler
We work with founders through our signature founder residency, adding value immediately, and taking no equity up front. We receive over 117,000 applications each year to build companies with us, and have grown to 18 funds with residencies in 26 cities around the globe. Founders also have the opportunity to pitch our Investment Committee to receive a $250k investment for 9%, allowing them to build for 12-18 months rather than attempting to raise before they have real traction.

We invest across stages and sectors, from consumer and fintech, to infrastructure and software, leveraging 25 years of investing experience.

This allows us to see local trends up close, partner with winning founders, and lead rounds at every stage. Once we commit to a team, we go to the ends of the earth to help them win, bigger. A selection of current and former Headline companies include Acorns, Angi, AppFolio, Bumble, Creditas, Farfetch, Fetch, Gopuff, Honeycomb, NGINX, Pismo, Raisin, The RealReal, Scopely, Segment, SEMrush, Sonos, and Staffbase.
