About
super{set} is a venture studio that conceives, funds, and builds data and AI-native companies from formation through scale. Based in San Francisco, the company operates as a company-builder - combining capital, talent, and hands-on operational expertise to turn ideas into lasting businesses. Unlike traditional venture capital firms that write checks and step back, super{set} stays deeply involved at the strategy, positioning, and operational layers, working alongside founders from the whiteboard to exit. The studio focuses exclusively on AI and data-centric solutions, with a portfolio spanning applied AI, fintech, developer tools, privacy, healthcare, and marketing technology. Companies typically start fully seed-funded by super{set} before inviting outside investors at Series A. Notable portfolio companies include Ketch (data control platform), Checksum (developer tools for test automation), Headlamp Health (clinical insights), Mazlo (nonprofit technology), Boombox (creator economy), and PointHealth (AI-powered prescription optimization). The super{set} team consists of seasoned operators and AI technologists who bring decades of experience building and scaling technology companies, including prior successes like Krux (acquired by Salesforce) and Rapt (acquired by Microsoft).
