Investment thesis

Earl Grey Capital positions itself as an early-stage venture fund run by real operators and founders who have built and exited companies, distinguishing itself from investors without operating experience. Its founders previously built Clearbit, an API-first data company used across GTM stacks that served billions of API requests and millions of users before its nine-figure acquisition by HubSpot in 2023. The team includes alumni of Stripe and Stanford. The firm emphasizes hands-on, founder-friendly investing and continues to back early-stage startups across a range of technology sectors.
