Companies I've invested in
My personal and firm portfolio includes over sixty companies across AI developer tools, infrastructure, security, and data and observability. The full list is at jesserobbins.com/invested-in.
Nineteen portfolio companies are valued at $500M or more. Five went public: PagerDuty, Instacart, Fastly, Caribou Biosciences, and Zymergen. Fourteen are private companies at $500M or more, including Snyk, Figure AI, Shield AI, LaunchDarkly, Sanity, Tailscale, Axiom Space, Netlify, Blockdaemon, Eight Sleep, Honor, Firefly, Kentik, and CircleCI.
I cofounded Chef, the infrastructure automation platform acquired for over $220 million. As a seed-stage advisor, I backed PagerDuty, Instacart, and Fastly before their IPOs.
Other highlights across sectors: Gradle (build infrastructure), Sanity (composable content), Continue (AI code assistant), Memgraph (real-time graph database for AI), CircleCI, and Groundcover (observability).
I sit on the boards of Continue, Memgraph, Sanity, and Mobot. I have served as an advisor to LaunchDarkly, PagerDuty, Fastly, Instacart, and Conjur. My investments cluster in areas where I have direct operating experience, the kinds of tools and infrastructure I built and relied on throughout my career.
