Charge Ventures

Charge Ventures is a data-driven, pre-seed and seed-stage venture capital fund based in New York City, founded in 2015. The firm's mission is to partner with exceptional founders at the very inception of their entrepreneurial journey — 'When others wait, we Charge.' It employs proprietary data-driven technology to identify and reach promising founders beyond traditional networks, with a clear bias toward data-driven software companies with strong product-market sense and bottoms-up growth. Focus areas include AI/ML applications, low-code/no-code tools, the creator economy, marketplaces, D2C healthcare, developer tools, fintech, future-of-work SaaS, and Web3 infrastructure. The firm leads or co-leads pre/seed rounds with $250K–$1M investments and deploys follow-on capital via SPVs. It also operates 'The Collective,' a decentralized network of founders, angels, and senior operators who co-invest alongside the fund and provide on-demand expertise to portfolio companies.
