Hashed
When the boundaries between industries collapse, Hashed is already there. We back founders building the next paradigm in AI and frontier tech, with offices across the key regions of the AI supply chain: Seoul, San Francisco, Singapore, Bangalore, and Abu Dhabi.
Day zero to global scale.
MoE Capital
MoE Capital is a $30M pre/seed fund founded by the team behind AGI House, operators with deep technical and academic roots. We back researcher-led model and agentic infrastructure, as well as AI-native apps, with $400k–$1M checks. We’re builders first and investors second. Our edge is a select circle of research experts and AI product leaders from frontier labs and scaled product orgs, carry-aligned to co-diligence hard tech, stress-test roadmaps, and open design-partner doors.
We move fast, go deep, and support founders end-to-end across infra, compute, GTM, and recruiting.
