Virtual Malloc Logovirtual malloc

We build and back deep-tech companies

Ventures is our studio and investment arm. We turn research breakthroughs into companies and partner with founders building the infrastructure layer of the next decade.

Studio

We incubate companies from our own research, providing engineering, capital, and go-to-market from day zero.

Seed & Series A

We lead and co-lead early rounds in infrastructure, developer tools, and applied AI, writing checks from $500K to $5M.

Hands-on partnership

Founders get embedded engineering support, recruiting, and access to our research teams — not just a wire.

Portfolio

A selection of companies we've built and backed across the deep-technology stack.

Allocnova

Series A

Systems Infrastructure

Tier-aware memory management for latency-critical services, spun out of our virtualmalloc research.

Simulayer

Seed

Scientific Computing

A portable abstraction layer that runs large-scale simulations across CPUs, GPUs, and custom accelerators.

Retrieva

Seed

Applied AI

Streaming retrieval infrastructure that gives long-context models fresh memory without a vector index.

Consensys Labs

Series A

Distributed Systems

Low-latency consensus primitives for multi-region databases and financial settlement networks.

Forge Compute

Seed

Developer Tools

An optimizing compiler toolchain that closes the gap between high-level code and bare-metal performance.

Vaulted

Pre-seed

Security

Confidential computing infrastructure for running sensitive workloads on untrusted hardware.
