Who we are

We are builders ourselves with 0 to Series B startup experience spanning North America and Europe. Badhouse is also a network of engaged angel investors keen to give back and help when the founder asks are relevant. We are strong believers in the test & learn ethos, as well as advocates for strong data protection and jurisdictional sovereignty.

Funding Requirements

We invest in very early-stage software (SaaS, AI, web3, infosec) startups solving problems that fall under two themes: smarter communities and/or smarter data systems. We have a strong Western Canada (West of Toronto) selection bias given the acute Pre-Seed funding/investment gap in this region compared to others.

Minimal criteria for consideration for investment:
1. There is a team or at least one co-founder
2. The company is past the idea stage
3. There is some evidence traction, whether it’s revenue or usage
4. Is below $1M in annual revenue (revenue can be $0)

Value add

We write first cheques and, as former startup operators, we're glad to get our hands dirty with founders, investing with our time and sweat as well.

Frequently Asked Questions
