What they've been talking about across their social media accounts

- Deep interest in the infrastructure layer of the AI stack, specifically tools that help structure or extract value from messy data. This includes enthusiasm for Reducto and their work on document intelligence and data extraction pipelines for LLMs.
- Focus on healthcare infrastructure that addresses systemic issues like price transparency and incentive structures rather than just consumer apps. Highlighted SmithRx for bringing transparency to pharmacy pricing and TrueMed for fixing healthcare incentives.
- Strong conviction in fintech automation and vertical-specific financial tools. Frequently cites Ramp as a prime example of exceptional execution and customer obsession in the financial automation space, while also noting niche plays like Ambrook for agricultural fintech.
- Support for developer-first platforms and API infrastructure that solve critical backend problems like security and workflow efficiency. Pointed to Graphite for improving code review processes and Basis Theory for handling data security and tokenization.
- Appreciation for founders who combine high-velocity execution with humility. Often praises teams like Ramp not just for their growth metrics, but for their hard work and humble approach to building at scale.

Notable Investments
BoxGroup is one of New York's most prolific seed firms, having backed hundreds of companies at the earliest stages with a philosophy of taking smaller stakes than typical lead funds while focusing on being a high-conviction, collaborative partner rather than optimizing for maximum ownership. The firm operates with a lean, partner-only structure where founders deal directly with decision-makers, and maintains a distinctive focus on consumer and consumer-social investments even when many peers have moved away from these sectors.
