y0 (why not.)

I'm building y0 with Scott and Aswin.

What We Do

At y0 (“why not?”), we back founders from emerging markets who are building profitable technology businesses that serve the global market. We believe the best companies don't always need venture capital. They need enough support to figure out if something works.

Portfolio

Portfolio companies.

Two portfolio companies are live today, building in data infrastructure and restaurant software, with more on the way.

Projects

Building the y0 operating stack.

Alongside investing, I'm building the platforms that run y0 today: Base, the partner OS for fund operations, and Basecamp, an independent platform for founders across the portfolio and y0 founder community.

Base

Partner OS

The internal command center for pipeline, portfolio context, founder requests, follow-ups, and fund operations.

Basecamp

Founder platform

A private founder home inspired by YC Bookface: updates, asks, discussions, and a shared directory for the y0 founder network.

Inside Basecamp

y0 Wiki

Knowledge base

Playbooks, templates, memos, and answers we can keep improving for every founder.

Superdata

Data layer

Datasets that help founders decide what to build, who to sell to, and where the opportunities are.
