What they claim to have backed
From their own portfolio page (on their website)
0 of 1 we have independently watched raise
Jumpingjackrabbit
Weaker than a round we watched, stronger than a list somebody sold us. A firm is far less willing to put a company on its own site that it never funded.
Exits from the portfolio
