◆ Investment Thesis
Mission Street Capital invests at pre-seed and seed in AI-native companies emerging from hacker houses and talent clusters. They seek unconventional signs of exceptional ability in founders — hackers, college dropouts, and oddballs who have never raised venture capital — aiming to be the first institutional check before the rest of venture catches on. They get to know founders before they fundraise, while they live together, experiment, and find early traction, then help with positioning, investor introductions, and fundraising for the next round.
◆ About Mission Street Capital
A micro VC fund launched by former Mission Control hacker house residents Surabhi Todi and Lisa Shmulyan to invest in very early-stage founders from hacker house communities before traditional VCs find them. The fund focuses on pre-seed and seed investments in AI and deep tech startups.
