Pre-seed and seed venture firm backing frontier-technology founders with operator-led deal support.
Location
San Francisco, CA, US
Founded
2016
Early frontier-technology founders need capital paired with operating help to reach customers, hires, and follow-on funding. Mana Ventures is a pre-seed and seed venture firm backing AI, robotics, space, and health-technology startups with checks alongside a Collective of founders and operators and a Scout network that extends its sourcing.
Unlike generalist pre-seed funds and AngelList syndicates that compete mainly on access to capital, Mana wins deals through operator-led evangelism, pairing founder support in hiring and enterprise introductions with early conviction in frontier markets. Its position is the specialist evangelist that earns allocation by helping technical teams commercialize.
