Our Values

Gravity Labs invests in the future of financial technology infrastructure. In close collaboration with Defy, we combine venture capital resources with hands-on company building. Four beliefs drive what we do.

1. Exceptional founders build exceptional businesses.

We are a founders-first venture studio. We believe people are paramount. When we invest in a project, we commit to finding and supporting the right leaders: operators with the vision, expertise, and determination to see ideas through to execution. If we can't find a match, we'll wait — even if it means missing a market. But when it clicks, we move fast.

2. The best companies are built on solid foundations.

Gravity Labs empowers founders by providing the funding they need to turn bold ideas into market realities. We don't stop at writing checks. We provide the strategic grounding, technical expertise, and advisory infrastructure that give ambitious founders the stability they need to take calculated risks.

3. Community is currency.

The companies we incubate become part of an interconnected system of future investors and partners, unlocking opportunities and opening doors from the moment we onboard.

4. Great ideas emerge from many places.

Gravity Labs turns insights into successful companies. We source opportunities from individuals with deep domain expertise, enterprises identifying market gaps, and protocols seeking specialized capabilities. We don't just fund exceptional founders; we listen to them.

Our Model

We incubate ideas, build teams, and provide the resources and infrastructure needed to bring companies from concept to market. Here's how.

Opportunity Identification

We spot market gaps before they become obvious, giving our companies first-mover advantage. Then we stress-test them, rigorously.

Validated Opportunities

We don't ask anyone to bet on unproven ideas. For every 30 ideas we go deep on, we fund one, and support from start to finish.

Founder Matching

We understand you're making a significant career decision, and we structure partnerships to reduce risk while maximizing upside. When we match the right founder to the right idea, we provide the initial capital, market validation, and institutional backing you need to get started.

Initial Funding

Gravity Labs companies receive meaningful initial capital, operational guidance, and access to our network of advisors, strategic partners, and founders. We remain actively involved as companies scale, helping navigate challenges and capitalize on opportunities.
