Park Rangers Capital is a venture firm backing community-driven startups at the earliest stages. We invest $100–250K at pre-seed and seed.
We’re building Park Rangers around two core beliefs. First, software has become a commodity. Second, the loneliness epidemic in the U.S. is catastrophic.
The strongest companies of the next decade will solve for both, not just by creating products, but by building communities. Their users won’t just transact; they’ll belong.
We back founders building these movements early with companies whose members are obsessive, loyal, and deeply connected to the brand. We call them “elephant companies.”

Beyond capital, we act as an extension of the founding team, helping transform early momentum into durable distribution.
Our support focuses on three areas that truly compound:
Content & Storytelling: Helping founders refine their narrative, craft launch announcements, and build thought leadership that attracts both customers and talent.
Community Access: Facilitating introductions to operators, early customers, and co-investors who share the founder’s ethos; the kind of alignment that builds trust and momentum.
Distribution Strategy: Providing tactical guidance on go-to-market, positioning, and creator-led distribution to ensure their story reaches the right audience early and often.
Together, these pillars help founders turn conviction into community and community into lasting advantage.

Q: At what valuations will you invest?
A: We don’t typically invest above a $20M post money valuation.
Q: Do you lead rounds?
A: Not yet! We’re very participatory with checks of $100-250k.
Q: How will you help me with my company?
A: We love to support our founders with asks as big as finding a founding CTO to as small as helping gut check marketing copy. We in particular like to help with all things GTM, public-facing founder comms, and fundraising intros. For the most recent company we invested in, we introduced them to the lead for their seed and 90% of the capital in that round.
Q: Is PRC hiring at this time?
A: Not right now, but if you think you could be a fit for our team send us a note. We are big believers in cold outreach!
