About LAUNCH Team

LAUNCH is a San Francisco-based venture capital firm founded in 2010 by Jason Calacanis that operates as part of a broader startup ecosystem including accelerators and investor syndicates. The firm invests primarily in early-stage companies, focusing on pre-seed and seed rounds across sectors such as SaaS, AI, fintech, and consumer technology, with a strong emphasis on U.S.-based ventures while investing globally. Typical check sizes range from $25,000 to $5 million, and LAUNCH often leads rounds while actively participating in follow-on investments. Notable portfolio companies include Uber, Robinhood, Calm, and Wealthfront, with the firm backing several before they reached billion-dollar valuations. Additional portfolio names include Ozone.AI, Xendoo, Thalamus, and Balloon. LAUNCH distinguishes itself through a multifaceted strategy that combines direct investing with a public angel syndicate of over 10,000 accredited investors and structured accelerator programs. The firm supports founders through events, podcasts, and research products rather than relying solely on capital deployment.
