Communication Tools

Union Square Ventures (USV)

Check: No individual check range is published. USV's firm-wide range is $1 million to $30 million, but Jared's special-advisor placement does not establish personal decision authority; the partnership discusses investments collectively without a vote.

Jared brings a repeat founder's consumer-product lens to networks at the intersection of AI and crypto. His published thesis favors strange, initially fringe behaviors that create genuinely new social and creative formats; AI tools that lower creation barriers; transparent economics that reward creators; open social protocols where users own identity, content, audience, and economic activity; and vertical search products that make expert knowledge broadly useful.
