Most "most active VC" lists are self-reported: firms hand a PR team a portfolio count and it gets published. This one is inverted. We start with 11,089 tracked, VC-backed founders in our directory, unnest the firms named on each founder's profile (13,243 associations across 1,972 distinct firms), and rank by how many founders each firm is publicly associated with.
This report reads most active vc firms straight off the company directory: the distribution below reflects only records we could verify, so gaps in the underlying filings show up as gaps here rather than as interpolated numbers.
Most Active VC Firms tracks how the funded-company corpus in the StartupFundraising.com corpus break down on this dimension. Every figure on this page is computed from the same verified rows that power the company directory — no survey panel, no modelled estimates.
