Chartline Capital Partners

Chartline Capital Partners invests $500K to $5M in B2B and B2B2C companies using data and automation to make industries more efficient, reliable, and intelligent. The firm targets companies with $2–7M in ARR or run rate that have already established go-to-market traction, joining as a hands-on partner to help founders scale faster through strategic introductions and operational support. Founded in 2012 by Ben duPont and Phil Stern, Chartline focuses on core industry verticals including HR Tech, FinTech, PropTech, and Digital Industrials — software that makes businesses faster, smarter, and more resilient. The firm avoids capital-heavy models, pre-seed and pre-IPO stages, and control positions, typically co-investing or joining syndicates while leading rounds approximately one-third of the time. Chartline believes that entrepreneurship and venture capital, done right, can move critical industries forward.
