Antler Austin

Run by Antler.

Antler's Austin residency runs eight weeks in person, after which teams may pitch the US Investment Committee. Teams it backs receive a $250,000 pre-seed investment on a SAFE at a $2.75m post-money valuation, which is 9.09% equity; teams that do not take investment give up no equity, and relocating founders are eligible for a $2,500 founder grant. Generalist by sector. Antler publishes one set of US terms, so Austin, Boulder and New York City share them and differ only by location.
