HackLegacy VC

Hacklegacy VC is a venture capital firm led by Managing Partner Ed Roman and COO & Partner Sanford Lincoln, investing in founders who want to change the world. The firm partners with visionary entrepreneurs to build transformative companies across B2B SaaS, marketplaces, and fintech. While many of its investments are in North America, the firm describes itself as market- and region-agnostic, investing across the globe, including Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, and Australia, with a stated preference for solutions that are necessary but not always glamorous. Its portfolio includes Jasper, Slope, Tavus, CommandBar, Method Financial, Zuma, Redbird, and Duplo, spanning enterprise software, fintech infrastructure, and marketplace platforms. The firm's approach favors founders with early traction, generally seeking startups with at least three months of demonstrated, month-over-month growth, and prioritizes warm introductions through existing founders or partner VCs over unsolicited outreach.
