Investment thesis

D3VC invests in early-stage companies raising capital through online crowdfunding platforms (Reg CF and Reg A+), sourcing from a proprietary dataset of 10,000+ offerings with 125+ data points each. The fund's approach applies AI-driven quantitative scoring alongside human review, targeting companies with disciplined valuations and strong fundamentals identified through backtestable signals unavailable to traditional venture funds. Rather than leading rounds, D3VC writes small checks to build a diversified portfolio engineered to capture follow-on opportunities at scale, positioning itself as a distribution channel for founders.
