Moxxie Ventures
Most investors wait for signals. Katie Jacobs Stanton built Moxxie Ventures to move before they appear. Launched in 2019, the firm operates at the earliest edge of company creation, placing first bets on founders building software that makes life and work better in ways that feel obvious only after the fact. Katie Jacobs Stanton brings a career shaped inside Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Color, and the White House, but the sharper edge is pattern recognition built across 100+ early investments including Airtable, Coinbase, and Cameo, long before the market agreed those were inevitable outcomes.
Moxxie moves where conviction has to do the heavy lifting. Pre seed. Seed. The rounds where decks still feel like questions and product is more instinct than infrastructure. In 2024, the firm closed a $95M Fund III, a signal that the market is not just watching, it is allocating with intent. The thesis stays tight. Back founders building software solutions to hard problems across AI, healthcare, climate, fintech, and enterprise systems. Not tourists chasing categories, but builders living 2–5 years ahead, where timing is uncomfortable and clarity is earned. The portfolio now spans more than 50+ companies, with a meaningful share led by women and founders from underrepresented backgrounds, not as a headline, but as a sourcing advantage that compounds.
What separates Moxxie is not just where they invest, it is how they show up when things get messy. Early stage is not clean. It is hiring mistakes, unclear pricing, a product that almost works, and a roadmap that changes after every real customer conversation. Moxxie leans into those moments with operator instinct, helping founders sharpen narrative, tighten go to market, and build teams that can carry weight before the spotlight arrives. This is not passive capital. It is proximity, speed, and a willingness to make decisions when information is incomplete and stakes are real, when most firms are still waiting for cleaner data that never comes.
There is a rhythm to how Moxxie plays the game. Fewer bets, deeper belief, and a bias toward founders who are not trying to impress the room, they are trying to build something that lasts in it. If you are paying attention, the signal is clear. The next wave of companies making life and work actually better is forming earlier than most people are willing to look, and Moxxie keeps showing up before it is obvious, before it is crowded, before it is safe.
The Moxxie Ventures portfolio is hiring across AI, climate, fintech, healthcare, and enterprise software. The builders are already in motion and they need operators who can keep up. Tap into their job board and find where you fit inside companies being built before the crowd shows up.
