ABOUT_PLAINTEXT.VC

We are operators-turned-investors who understand the pain of building and scaling companies.

MISSION_STATEMENT:

We invest in companies solving the unglamorous but critical problems that keep businesses running.

While others chase consumer trends, we focus on the boring infrastructure that powers the economy.

Our thesis: the less sexy the problem, the more necessary the solution, the better the investment.

INVESTMENT_PHILOSOPHY:

[PROBLEM_FIRST]

We start with the problem, not the solution. Real pain points create lasting value.

[OPERATOR_MINDSET]

Having built companies ourselves, we understand the operational challenges founders face.

[LONG_TERM_FOCUS]

We're patient capital. Great businesses take time to compound.

[VALUE_CREATION]

Beyond capital, we provide operational expertise and strategic guidance.
