An announcement gives the size of the round, not the size of this investor's cheque: the only rounds that imply a cheque are those where they were the sole named investor.

## The team

We hold **1** person at this firm from the lists this database was built from: a weaker source than the filings, since a list does not say when a title ended. Login to see them.

## What they claim to have backed

From their own portfolio page (on their website)

**4** of 8 we have independently watched raise

[BioAge](https://millionrounds.com/company/bioage-labs)[Harvey](https://millionrounds.com/company/harvey)[Perplexity](https://millionrounds.com/company/perplexity)[Scale](https://millionrounds.com/company/scale-ai) Braintrust Ncbi gene involved in lifespan muscle

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

Companies it backed that were later bought or listed **4 in all**

**[Twice](https://millionrounds.com/company/twice)** Bought by [eBay](https://millionrounds.com/fund/ebay) **Undisclosed** Jul 2015

**[Leo](https://millionrounds.com/company/leo)** Bought by [Lyft](https://millionrounds.com/fund/lyft) **Undisclosed** Jun 2015

An exit counts when it came after the firm's first round in the company. From historical deal records.
