Louis Schotsky is a managing partner at Navitas Capital who specializes in vertical AI and intelligent SaaS for physical industries like housing and construction, personally leading investments from seed through multiple rounds including EliseAI's journey from early-stage startup to a $250M+ Series E company with over $100M in revenue. He focuses on backing exceptional founding teams with strong distribution advantages rather than purely technical defensibility, and leverages Navitas's LP network of major real estate and construction companies to provide product validation and training data for portfolio companies' AI models.

Notable Investments
Navitas Capital is one of a small number of built world-only early-stage VCs with a 15+ year history, founded in 2009 and focused exclusively on transformative tech for real estate and construction, with partners who are themselves real estate owners, operators, and developers that deploy new tech first across their own portfolio. The fund's LP base is unusually concentrated in blue-chip real estate strategics like AvalonBay, Equity Residential, and PulteGroup, enabling Navitas to offer startups direct access to large-scale owners and operators as design partners and customers rather than just capital introductions.
