The Hustle Fund invests in pre-seed rounds. Not seed. Not post-seed / mango seed. Pre-seed.

As their mantra states – “We invest in hilariously early startups”. The Hustle Fund’s first check is usually $25k unless the team has worked with the founder before.

Most of the time, founders can expect to receive a response from the team between 24 and 48 hours after having a call.
