Investment thesis
Seabed VC backs seed-stage startups, sometimes at the earliest 'two people in a garage' point. The firm's investing framework weights early success roughly 70% on the founders, 20% on the product, and 10% on the market, believing strong teams can overcome weak products and breakthrough products can disrupt unattractive markets. It seeks founders driven to make a major impact and favors strong teams over a single powerful CEO. The firm emphasizes hands-on support—helping with fundraising, advisers, hiring, enterprise customer introductions, operations, supply chain, and sales/marketing—and promises fast responsiveness. It actively cultivates a diversified portfolio with founders of varied backgrounds and encourages more female founders.
