It has a very different PPS curve relative to like SAS, AI, et cetera, which are honestly just like much more like, you know, clear, smooth, sort of like, you know, typically obviously exponential curves if it's like a you know sort of great company, right?
Like if you look at Ramp, for example, there was just clear step ups all throughout.
You obviously had to like, you know, they did a great job of like um
Marketing themselves down in like the 23, you know, 2022 basically, you know, sort of crash.
And then that was proven to them, and then basically smoothly upwards basically since then.
And then we're going to.
Um
And so the the the the way that's played out is like, you know, now over the past couple of years, I've much more consistently done basically like super early stage PDF and a founder basically like you know early, early, you know, industrial deep tech companies.
And then I sort of sit there and bide my time and wait until what I think is like that basically last round right before the inflection point.
And then basically, you know, sort of do do that round.
And I've now done that, you know, over the past year.
I did basically three like later stage basically rounds of like, you know, series B, series C, and then like, you know, basically series C that I just you know sort of close terms on over the holidays.
Um, and all of them were companies that I'd either been tracking basically since seed or literally been an investor since seed.
talk about one of those, you know, part of what we were talking about earlier today was, you know, talking about one of those very particular companies.
Um but yeah, I think I'm starting to realize that I like that win more than I like doing the like, you know, sort of messy middle um in some ways.
And so yeah, wanna double down on that.
And you know, whatever Tuesday night was cool where I literally felt that happen where I signed two term sheets that were indicative of both ends of the barbell for me.
Yeah.
mean, I'm not somebody I don't think I would ever be able to do like a raw series C where it's like I've met the company for the first time and have the time to go do the diligence, et cetera, from scratch.
Cause it's just like, dude, I've got a fucking company that I gotta run.
