Last update to database: October 05, 2026

Leading Early-Stage Investors & Venture Capital Firms Funding Pre-Seed Startups Across the US

Pre-seed funding in the United States continues to accelerate in 2025 as founders seek early backing to bring new ideas to market. The top active pre-seed investors and venture capital firms funding startups in the US are focusing on emerging opportunities in AI, SaaS, fintech, health tech, and consumer technology.


These investors provide the earliest rounds of capital—often the first institutional checks—to help startups build MVPs, validate product-market fit, and prepare for seed or Series A funding. Many are based in major hubs such as San Francisco, New York, Austin, and Miami, while others are micro-VCs and accelerators investing nationwide.


Our database highlights investors currently funding and supporting pre-seed startups across the United States. Updated weekly, it gives founders, analysts, and business development teams real-time visibility into who’s actively investing at the earliest stage of the American startup ecosystem.
