Itamar Novick.

I work with startup founders at the very beginning - when it’s still messy, uncertain, and full of possibility.

I’m the founder of Recursive Ventures, a pre-seed fund backing AI startups from day one. I partner closely with founders as they go from idea to company, help shape product & strategy, and support founders raising subsequent capital to scale their business.

I’ve been on all sides of the startups table: founder and executive, institutional VC, and angel investor. Over the years, I’ve backed 100+ startups, including Deel, HoneyBook, Placer.ai, Life360, Tile, May Mobility, Credible, and SafeGraph. Business Insider has named me a Top 100 global seed investor each year since inception in 2022.

I was part of the early team at Life360 (NASDAQ: LIF), helping scale the company from seed to IPO and to $300M+ in revenue. Prior to that, I was a founding team member and Head of Product at Gigya, which was acquired by SAP for $350m.

I’m especially interested in founders building with AI at the core. People rethinking industries from first principles, not just adding AI on top.

If you’re building something ambitious, I’d love to hear from you.
