Untapped Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm based in Los Angeles, California, that backs technical founders building AI-native companies aiming to define the Autonomous Economy. The firm focuses on startups developing end-to-end systems for economic work, emphasizing infrastructure, orchestration, control, and execution layers that enable autonomous operations. It invests in pre-seed and seed rounds, and participates as a lead, co-lead, or follower, with a portfolio of more than 35 AI-native and AE-native companies and a community of more than 90 LPs who actively contribute to sourcing, diligence, and portfolio support. Untapped emphasizes working closely with founders from day one to shape narrative, sharpen go-to-market, accelerate distribution, and build toward durable software systems as software evolves from tools into systems. Recent activity includes investments in Nexxa.ai (seed announced January 2026) and Climax Foods (seed funding announced April 2024), and a collaboration with the City of Burbank on a pre-seed accelerator launched in 2023.
