Investing in your company's success

Our Triple-A Method

We see investors as partners, not wallets. We invest directly in the entrepreneur with training, engineering resources, and years of industry expertise so that they can focus on building, not managing.
AllocateWe don't do flings. We partner for the long haul, providing cutting-edge technology, enterprise tools, and industry expertise on top of funding, ensuring that our partners have all the resources they need to thrive.
AugmentWe like getting our hands dirty. Arctype has a dedicated corps of engineers who can jump directly into your organization to build proofs of concept, optimize for scale, and get your product to market faster.
AccelerateAfter five exits in ten years, we know a thing or two about speed. Our dedicated strategists work hand-in-hand with founders to build enterprise-level businesses that are ready for exit today.
