We Back the Builders

A venture fund built in Austin, for people who started something before anyone told them it was a good idea.

About Inprimio Capital

Inprimio Capital is an Austin-based seed and pre-seed venture fund writing $250K–$1M checks into exceptional early-stage founders across every sector. Founded in 2019, the fund has backed 18 companies across 11 sectors and deploys capital before most institutional investors are paying attention.

The fund is sector-agnostic by design. We invest in climate, healthtech, fintech, developer tools, AI automation, edtech, and more — organized around founder quality and early timing, not a predetermined theme.

Our partners are former operators who've been on both sides of the table: early employees, founders, and product leaders who know what the pre-seed stage actually looks like. That experience shapes how we diligence, how we structure terms, and how we show up after the check clears.

If you're building something and you want a partner who'll answer a Saturday morning call, that's us.

Three Principles We Don't Compromise On

01

People First, Thesis Second

Market timing matters. TAM matters. But the founder is the variable that changes everything. We spend most of our diligence understanding the person — their track record, how they think under pressure, and whether they'll tell us the truth when things go sideways.

02

No Fake Urgency

We don't manufacture FOMO. If we're interested, we say so and we move. If we're not, we tell you why. Founders deserve real answers, not a three-week stall followed by a form rejection. We aim to close or pass within three weeks of first contact.

03

After the Check Clears

The investment is the beginning, not the finish line. We make introductions, help with recruiting, review your pitch for the next round, and show up to customer meetings when it matters. Being a good investor is an active job.

Still early and unsure if you're ready?

Send us the half-finished deck. We've backed companies that came to us with a napkin and a conviction. The pitch doesn't have to be perfect.
