Investment Thesis

Script is an early-stage, founder-first fund that prioritizes curiosity, rapid learning, and product velocity over strict labels or categories. They invest at the 0-1 stage (often as the first institutional check), backing technical founders and ideas formed at the intersection of culture and technology; they prefer to “think about trends and market movement instead of sectors and categories” and prize unique insights made where “art/culture and math/science” meet. The firm is flexible about company stage/round names so long as teams can “create at a rapid pace and … learn quickly from their customers,” and they move quickly on conviction-driven opportunities (decision in 24–48 hours).

Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

Script Capital is most relevant for founders raising Pre-Seed and Seed rounds in AI/ML, Enterprise SaaS, Vertical SaaS, and Developer Tools, especially across San Francisco and United States, with public check-size signals around $250k to $500k.

Focus statement

Script focuses on early-stage internet and software startups, partnering with technical founders and writing typical checks of $250k–$500k in pre-seed and seed rounds (leading or co-leading <$1M pre-seed rounds and co-leading or smaller positions in $1M–$5M rounds).

Value Add

Explicit programmatic support for pre-company exploration: 'Script Sabbatical' (12–18 month 'Curiousity' checks for PhDs/sabbaticals) and 'Script Summer' for high-school/college founders.
Fast, conviction-driven process — 'Our partners take a "pound the table" approach to investing' and they 'typically decide on our investment in 24-48 hours after our initial meeting.'
Stage flexibility: they 'don't really care what the round is called' as long as founders show rapid building and learning.
Willingness to fund 0-1 work and founders who haven't yet formed companies or built products ('You don't need to have started a company yet or have a product to apply for funding').
Thematic, vector-based outlook: focuses on trends/market movement and insights at the intersection of art/culture and math/science rather than strict sector boxes (illustrated by a diverse portfolio spanning AI, web3, SaaS, security, data infrastructure, consumer, and developer tools).
