RANDOM FOREST is a boutique early-stage fund.
We focus on market disruptive ventures, based on cutting-edge Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence technologies.
Along with our in-house algorithm team and experienced partners, we provide a unique offering of support to those startups we choose to invest in.
MEET THE MANAGEMENT TEAM
In today’s early-stage investment landscape, with more startups, faster-moving technologies, and growing hype around AI and other disruptive fields, we believe investors need to go beyond traditional venture capital evaluation and support.
Random Forest is led by an experienced management team with deep backgrounds in technology, entrepreneurship, company building, and investing. We take an active, hands-on approach to working with our portfolio companies, supporting founders not only in strategic and business decisions, but also in the technological challenges that are often critical to building category-defining companies.
To complement our internal capabilities, we have built and actively manage a network of mathematicians, data scientists, AI experts, and other specialists who work closely with us when relevant. This gives us access to deep technical expertise across areas such as machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, and predictive modeling.
Together, this combination of experienced leadership, technical depth, and close involvement with founders strengthens both our investment process and the support we provide after investing — from rigorous technical due diligence to helping portfolio companies navigate key product, technology, and growth decisions.

AI
Data
Product
Market
Traditionally, we used to evaluate a “regular” software-based company on having the right talents, checking the company’s product and market, and ensuring the product fits the market and solves a big pain for its customers.
But, when it comes to evaluating AI companies, checking the same old product-market fit is just not enough. We now must also add data into the equation.
So instead of a product-market fit, we need to carefully check the Product-Market-Data (PMD) fit.
Data is now a big part of the equation, which calls for a paradigm shift in the way VCs invest.
CAREERS
We are constantly looking for talented AI experts to enhance our partners and our research teams.
