Pitchdrive is a founder-first, hands-on pre-seed VC based in Amsterdam and Antwerp, helping startups get from pitch to launch with speed, clarity, and strategic support. Focused on SaaS, marketplaces, and AI, the firm helps founders hit their first growth milestones fast.
Pitchdrive invests €100K–€500K at the earliest stages, providing not just capital but intensive support in product development, go-to-market strategy, and fundraising preparation. The firm's team of experienced operators works shoulder-to-shoulder with founders.
With a focus on the Benelux startup ecosystem and expanding across Europe, Pitchdrive fills a critical funding gap for pre-seed founders who need smart capital and hands-on help to prove their concepts and prepare for larger institutional rounds.
