Network Advantage

Community Meets Capital

When Zero Prime invests, you get more than capital. You get our network of technical founders and operators, plus access to AI Council, our flagship conference for engineers building the future of AI.

Jordan Tigani
Founder, MotherDuck

“Zero Prime joined our seed early on and years later, we're still launching features on the AI Council stage. When we raised our last round, Pete and the team were my first call."

Dhruv Singh
Founder, HoneyHive

"Zero Prime led our pre-seed when most investors didn't get LLM evaluation yet. They regularly introduce us to teams dealing with the exact problems we solve."

Our Network Engine

Most VCs build networks one deal at a time. We built a community flywheel that compounds year over year.

Since 2013, we've built relationships across AI and data—founders, engineers, operators. AI Council is the annual spark. Intros, connections, and exclusive events keep the flywheel spinning year-round.

Get Access to Our Network of Operators

Our bench of advisors and operators runs deep. Engineers, executives and technical leaders who've scaled companies and seen the problems you're about to face. Just an intro away.

AI Council Community

In-person is our medium.

AI Council brings the community together once a year but the real connections are made in smaller rooms. Founder dinners, happy hours and meetups across SF, New York and the EU. We create the spaces where builders actually connect face-to-face.

Company Building Support

More than intros, we help you build.

Many of our founders are first-timers from companies like Google, Palantir and Meta. We provide what matters most: intros that accelerate your earliest milestones and take most founders years to find on their own.

We invest across the pond.

We help you break into the US with hands-on support and our network of enterprise buyers. We've guided EU founders through this before so you don't have to figure it out alone.
