It has never been easier to start an AI company. It has never been harder to fund one.
Foundation models can commoditize a category overnight. Two-person teams are reaching revenue milestones that used to take a Series A. The old pattern-matching is breaking, and every serious investor knows it.
Join the in-person launch of Venture Signals, AI Insiders’ global VC circle and new YouTube series tracking how investors are deploying capital in AI.
On June 25, we’re launching Venture Signals live at Silicon Valley Bank with two recorded conversations before the series continues digitally on YouTube.
WHAT IS VENTURE SIGNALS
Venture Signals is the global VC circle inside AI Insiders, built to track how capital is actually moving across the AI economy.
AI Insiders is a 15,000+ person vertical AI ecosystem spanning six Industry Circles: Cybersecurity, Fintech, Healthcare, Media, Government, and Robotics. Each circle brings together founders, operators, investors, and industry leaders around the sectors where AI is being adopted fastest.
Venture Signals is the investor layer of that ecosystem.
It connects angels, GPs, emerging managers, and early-stage investors across regions, from Silicon Valley to the Nordics, India, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America. Those conversations become a YouTube video series, private research channel, and curated investor gatherings.
Over the past two months, we sat down with 30+ fund managers and asked each one the same question:
How are you actually deploying capital in AI right now?
Where the checks are moving. What counts as a moat when the model layer keeps shifting. Why some smaller funds are moving faster than larger platforms. How pricing, ownership, and defensibility are being rewritten.
No panels. No talking points. Direct signal from investors, built for investors.
