From 12,000 teams to 500 worth meeting. All powered by AI. On this episode of The Data Minute, Peter sits down with Benjamin Orthlieb, Founding Partner at Blue Moon, to explore how his firm has completely re-engineered the venture capital process using a proprietary tech stack. Blue Moon uses unsupervised machine learning to whittle down thousands of teams based on one key question: "Who has the highest probability of graduating from seed to Series B?" Before Series B, founders are basically the only data you have. After Series B, there are systems in place that you can use to better analyze a company's trajectory. Ben also breaks down why the "warm intro" is obsolete, how AI-generated founder dossiers result in a 75% meeting acceptance rate, and why human judgment is still the final decision-maker. Plus, insights on the "hollowing middle" of venture and why small check strategies allow Blue Moon to cooperate - not compete - with top-tier firms.
