About Us
Mod Squad Capital is an operator-led venture platform where capital, cybersecurity expertise, and enterprise access are aligned around measurable impact.
Most venture firms provide capital and advice.
Mod Squad Capital provides capital, operators, and enterprise access.
Every participant in the ecosystem is aligned through performance-based incentives. Advisors earn upside only when their contributions materially move the startup forward. This creates a culture of accountability where everyone is expected to "put up or shut up."
Mission
To accelerate the next generation of cybersecurity and enterprise technology companies by aligning capital, expertise, and enterprise market access around measurable impact.
We believe the best outcomes happen when founders, operators, and investors share the same goals and are rewarded based on real results—not just time or connections.
Positioning
Operator-Led Venture Platform for Cybersecurity Startups
We're not just another venture firm. We're building a new model where experienced security leaders actively drive value creation alongside founders.
Investment Approach
Mod Squad Capital participates in early-stage companies through flexible investment structures aligned with startup milestones.
Instead of managing a traditional venture fund, the platform deploys capital and expertise through flexible structures designed to maximize speed and alignment with founders.
Every investment comes with hands-on support from the Mod Squad network—experienced operators who actively help drive growth and market adoption.
How We Engage
When Mod Squad Capital partners with a startup, the engagement focuses on measurable business outcomes.
$1 million in ARR generated within the first 12 months can correspond to a defined equity allocation.
Future milestones are negotiated as the company grows, ensuring ongoing alignment between the platform, advisors, and founders.
This performance-driven model ensures that Mod Squad Capital earns its upside through real impact rather than passive ownership.
The Network
The Mod Squad is a curated network of experts who support portfolio companies in areas critical to enterprise adoption.
CISOs and security architects from Fortune 500 companies and leading enterprises.
Risk and compliance leaders who understand GRC requirements and frameworks.
Operators with proven track records scaling cybersecurity companies.
Leaders who can facilitate strategic relationships and design partner engagements.
Respected voices in cybersecurity who can amplify your company's message.
Deep understanding of how enterprises evaluate, buy, and deploy security solutions.
Each startup engagement typically includes 5–10 Mod Squad members selected for their strategic relevance to the company's market.
Incentive Model
A portion of Mod Squad Capital's economics is reserved for advisors who create measurable impact for portfolio companies.
Approximately 30% of platform economics is allocated to the Mod Squad Advisor Pool.
Advisors earn participation in this pool based on verified contributions that materially advance the startup.
Revenue generation from enterprise introductions
Securing enterprise design partners
Strategic partnerships that accelerate adoption
Funding introductions that result in successful investment rounds
Product architecture guidance that enables enterprise readiness
Customer references and testimonials that unlock new deals
Advisors do not receive automatic equity. Participation is earned through measurable outcomes.
Governance
Advisor contributions are evaluated through a lightweight governance process designed to remain fair without creating bureaucracy.
A small internal committee reviews contributions and allocates credit accordingly.
The goal is to ensure transparency while keeping the system efficient and practical.
Growth Strategy
Mod Squad Capital takes a highly selective approach to partnerships.
The platform typically adds no more than three new startup partnerships per year.
This ensures that each company receives meaningful support from the Mod Squad network rather than superficial engagement. Our focus is depth of impact, not breadth of portfolio.
