About
A field guide, not a leaderboard.
Round Zero helps Australian founders understand pathways, check fit, and prepare better questions before outreach.
What it is
A dated, browsable map of Australian venture investors, portfolio companies and programs. Records are compiled from public sources and published as a static site.
What it is not
It does not endorse providers, guarantee eligibility, invent undisclosed cheque sizes, or replace legal, tax or financial advice. Reconfirm deployment status, partner roles and application windows directly.
How to use it
Browse investors and companies, follow the links between them, and treat every record as a starting point for diligence, not a substitute for it.
Built by
Round Zero is built by Tom Jowitt. It uses both AI and deterministic tooling to collate, process and enrich data on a schedule. It is a self-learning system that slowly corrects its own errors and grows the data corpus without human oversight.
