Pitch the funds that back startups like yours.

Round Funded holds 1,541 active VC firms in the United States next to 60,000+ investors worldwide, each with the partner to write to, and the outreach to do it from your own inbox.

Start with these 100 firms

How to pitch a VC firm in the United States

Open the firm's profile first: its stage focus, the sectors it actually funds and the size of round it usually joins. Then write to the partner who covers your space, with the traction and the ask in the first three lines. A fund that has done many deals in your sector this year is a warmer lead than a famous name that has not.

About this list

This list is part of Round Funded, an investor database and outreach platform for founders. It covers 60,000+ active VCs, angels, family offices and accelerators with verified contacts, lets you send pitches from your own Gmail, and includes a free Data Room for your raise. How this data is built.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many VC firms are there in the United States?

The Round Funded catalog lists 1,541 active venture capital firms in the United States, after excluding banks, lenders, wealth managers, insurers and real-estate vehicles. This page shows the top 100 by investments on record; the count updates as the catalog is refreshed.

How is this list ranked?

By the number of investments on record for each firm, then by how complete its profile is. It is a catalog ranking, not an editorial one: a fund with many recorded deals sits above a famous name with few.

How do I get in touch with a VC firm in the United States?

Every firm on this page links to its profile with stage and sector focus. Sign up to see the partner contact behind each firm and send your pitch from your own Gmail, with replies tracked on the Round Funded pipeline.

Are these firms actively investing?

The catalog is built from funds with recent investment activity and is re-checked continuously; each profile shows the investments on record. Read the firm's stage and sector focus before you write, since an active fund in the wrong sector is still a no.

What is Round Funded?

Round Funded is an investor database and outreach platform for startup founders. It lists 60,000+ active investors with verified contacts, filtered to recent investment activity, and lets founders send personalized pitches from their own Gmail, track replies, and share a free Data Room. Round+ starts at $99 per month with a 3-day trial.
