Success Venture Partners (SuccessVP) is a San Francisco seed and pre-seed fund for applied-AI founders, built on the thesis that most AI companies fail in deployment, not product. Founded in 2023 by General Partner John Gleeson, who scaled Customer Success at Motive from $1M to $300M ARR, the fund helps portfolio companies land first customers, get live, staff deployments, and get known. Its LP base is 150+ Customer Success leaders from companies such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Stripe, Notion, GitHub, and Salesforce, and it is backed by a 5,000+ operator community (the SF and NYC Customer Success Meetups) and the Founder-Led Customer Success newsletter.
