Investment Thesis

LunaCap takes a fundamentals-first, impact-light approach: provide venture debt (hybrid growth capital) to early-stage companies led by Military, Women and Minority (MWM) founders that have demonstrable product-market fit, sales pipeline and a path to profitability. The firm prioritizes downside protection and near-term cash yield for investors via senior/subordinated term loans while retaining equity upside through modest warrant coverage — i.e., “generate yield and return capital regardless of paper valuation, all while maintaining exposure to the potential upside of the VC world.”

Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

LunaCap Ventures is most relevant for founders raising Seed, Series A, and Series B rounds in Enterprise SaaS, Vertical SaaS, Media Entertainment, and Professional Services, especially across United States and New York City, with public check-size signals around $150k to $500k.

Focus statement

LunaCap invests $150K–$500K of venture debt to US-headquartered, MWM-founded companies with $1M–$10M ARR (or clear path to profitability), targeting firms that have product-market fit, an established sales pipeline and strong cash-flow discipline.

Value Add

  • Venture-debt / hybrid growth capital model (non-convertible term loan + equity participation via warrants) instead of pure equity VC
  • Explicit, repeated mandate to back Military, Women and Minority (MWM) founders and leadership
  • Investment sizing and underwriting criteria published: $150K–$500K debt financings; 10–18% interest rate; 1–5 year terms; 1–5% in warrants
  • Target company profile specified: US HQ, product-market fit, established sales pipeline, $1M–$10M ARR, profitable or on a path to profitability within 6 months
  • Focus on delivering cash yield and downside protection (loans often sit senior on the cap table) while keeping ~80% equity on founder cap table
  • Hands-on operator/investor team with military leadership experience and operator backgrounds (leveraging network and operational support)
  • Public commitments to diversity transparency (reporting metrics) and philanthropic alignment (Founders Pledge, impact-light thesis)
  • Operational policies that reduce founder friction: e.g., ‘no warm intro required’ for serious consideration
