Incisive Ventures is a Seattle pre-seed fund that backs technology companies reducing friction at scale, often as the first institutional check. Founder and managing partner Martin Tobias writes $250K–$500K checks into B2B founders, using a screening process built over two decades and more than 300 investments, and a network from 60+ angel investments in the sector, including four unicorns that raised $2.5B+ in follow-on financing. The firm has made 81 investments across Fund 1, an Access Fund, a syndicate and an Opportunity Fund, and offers free founder tools including Investor Match, a pre-seed deck scorer and an AI chat trained on Martin's writing and talks. Venture partner Nataraj Sindam, a senior product manager at Microsoft Azure, also hosts the Startup Project podcast.
