Obvious Ventures

some head-turning news! techcrunch.com/2026/01/26/obv…

From small practices to hospitals, the pattern is clear. If scheduling breaks, everything else struggles. Correct bookings protect care quality. Everything depends on that first step.

#Obello raised $8.5M in Seed funding led by StepStone platform manager @obviousvc to scale its AI design platform and expand its GLAM engine, which delivers intelligent, on-brand creative across channels with one-click adaptive design. Continue learning: bit.ly/47L7OyN

We are excited to announce our latest #generativescience investment!

Big news: Inductive has raised a $25M Series A to democratize AI that transforms small molecule drug discovery. Our Compass platform, powered by our pre-competitive data consortium, predicts ADMET properties before synthesis - helping find higher quality drugs for patients, faster. • Backed by @obviousvc, @a16zBioHealth, @Lux_Capital, @S32_VC & more • 1st place in Polaris ADMET challenge • Supporting dozens of active drug programs already We’re just getting started. 👉 inductive.bio/news/inductive… #DrugDiscovery #AI #Biotech #Pharma #InductiveBio

We are proud to support @kyosu and the team at Inceptive. They are building AI models on the languages of biology and computer science, and using them to produce new mRNA therapies and vaccines. obvious.com/ideas/creating…

In 2014, we founded Obvious with the simple idea that venture capital could be a force for positive change. Our next chapter will center on #GenerativeScience and the companies using AI to discover new technologies in climate, healthcare, and robotics. obvious.com/ideas/obvious-…

Generative science is already rewiring every field of science, from physics to biology, with enormous potential for the future of our species and our planet. Our co-founder, @JamesJoaquin, on how it will help us solve the unsolvable. #GenSci

Credit card points are funded by small businesses. @bytandym issues private label cards with processing fees that are less than 1%, allowing merchants to bypass the big banks and fund their own rewards programs that build customer loyalty. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

In our debut episode, "Our Electric Journey Unveiled," we sit down with our co-founders, Toby and Ben, to discuss Lightship's bold vision for #sustainable energy solutions in the #travel trailer industry.

Join us in November! We’re partnering with @norrsken_org to bring you Impact Week 2024: two days of inspiration and networking in Barcelona with 1,000+ of the world’s top impact founders and investors.

Howdy is an Austin-based hiring startup that connects developers in Latin America with jobs at companies in North America. Since the beginning, @howdy's mantra has been “the devs come first.” And it’s obvious from their retention that it’s paying off. obvious.com/ideas/engineer…

VSCO was founded on the belief that you can do anything with the right creative tools, inspiring resources, and a supportive community. This ethos is the throughline in everything it does, and its new product, @vsco Pro, is no exception. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

Many factors interfere with a good night’s sleep, but too much screen time and caffeine are the big ones.  Since its founding, @beam_wellness has been helping the Seventy percent of adults in America who have trouble getting enough rest. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

In the U.S., 1 in 5 students faces similar challenges with learning differences. That’s where @joinparallel_us comes in. Their mission is to support all learning styles so that every student can access the resources they need to reach their full potential issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

It can take years of testing and 3,000 to 6,000 compounds to go from the discovery stage to identifying a drug for clinical trials. @Gandeeva_Tx can do the same thing by testing 200. It’s the difference between using a floodlight and a laser pointer. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

Our energy supply will not be able to keep up with the demands of AI/crypto, reshoring of manufacturing, and the electrification of everything. @Andrewbeebe explains how geothermal is THE stopgap solution + bridge to better technology like nuclear fusion. obvious.com/ideas/how-geot…

Using state-of-the-art lab automation, machine learning, and one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world, @RecursionPharma can advance a drug into the early stages of discovery about 80% faster than and at half the cost of industry averages. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

There were three pivotal moments in the journey that led @deprimer to co-found @taikacoffee. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…

Sometimes, the cure is worse than the disease. Chemotherapy takes a nuclear approach, obliterating healthy cells along with cancerous ones. So, how do you develop therapeutics that leave healthy cells unharmed? That's what @labgeni_us is here to answer. issuu.com/obviousvc/docs…
