Active Capital

What is Active Capital?

Active Capital is a venture capital firm with a focus on leading pre-seed rounds for business software companies. Established in 2017 and based in San Antonio, Texas, they are committed to investing in ambitious founders who are at the intersection of software, cloud, and artificial intelligence. Their passion lies in supporting scrappy founders until true product-market fit is found.

Active Capital typically invests in B2B SaaS companies, recognizing the bright future of AI-powered B2B software. With assets under management of $21,400,000, their initial check size usually ranges from $500,000 to $1 million, and they are open to investing more as a company grows and the relationship develops.

Their investment sweet spot is notably around the $500,000 mark, notwithstanding a minimum investment limit of $100,000 and a maximum of $1 million. Specializing in seed, early stage, and even debt financing, they also participate in series A rounds, angel investing, and convertible note offerings.

As a firm, they've been starting, scaling, and investing in startups for over 20 years, positioning themselves particularly well for pre-seed founders building products in SaaS, cloud, and AI domains.

Importantly, while they are Texas-based, they do not limit their investment to their home state; instead, they have a nationwide reach. Their portfolio showcases a variety of companies they've invested in, and testimonials from these companies' founders and CEOs attest to Active Capital's founder-centric approach and active involvement in their growth stories.
