How to apply to Whiteboard Capital

Use the pitch form

  • The only stated way in is the Submit Your Pitch form on the homepage. It needs your name, email, LinkedIn profile, a description of your idea and a pitch deck file, so have the deck ready before you open it.
  • The site gives no review timeline, no eligibility checklist and no deadline. Do not read a missing reply as a rejection or as an acceptance.

Check the stage first

  • The firm states that it invests at ideation, pre-seed and seed stages. If you are already raising a later institutional round, this is probably not the right door.
  • It says it is sector agnostic, but the portfolio leans towards consumer, B2B commerce, fintech and SaaS. Read the portfolio table to see companies like yours and who invested alongside.

Make the idea easy to judge

  • The form asks only for a short description of the idea and a deck, so the deck carries the pitch. Lead with the problem, the team and what has been built so far.
  • The firm describes itself as hands-on with founders, so say what help beyond capital you are looking for.

About Whiteboard Capital

Whiteboard Capital is a Mumbai-based early-stage venture fund. Its own About page calls it an institutional investor dedicated to co-building companies where technology drives innovation, and says it invests at ideation, pre-seed and seed stages. It was founded in 2018 by Sandeep Tandon and Anshu Prasher and has grown from a 2-person team to an 8-member team.

Who it backs

The firm says it is sector agnostic. In practice its portfolio table, which lists a sector and a one-line description for each company, is weighted towards consumer brands, B2B commerce, fintech and SaaS, with some health tech, ed tech and hardware or IoT companies as well. It describes its role as more than capital: it says it invests time, expertise and resources in the ideas and teams it believes in, and works with founders on strategy.

The portfolio page marks each company as active, partially exited or exited, and names the co-investors alongside. The About page adds that portfolio companies have gone on to receive follow-on capital from funds including Premji Invest, Elevation Capital, Tiger Global, Accel, Nexus Venture Partners and Matrix Partners, which gives a sense of the funds that tend to follow it into later rounds.

Where it is

The corporate office is at A 808, Rustomjee Central Park, Andheri - Kurla Road, Chakala, Andheri East, Mumbai 400093. The footer also lists Bangalore and New Delhi, with no address given for either.

How to reach them

The site has a Submit Your Pitch option in its menu. It opens a short form on the homepage that asks for your first and last name, email, LinkedIn profile, a description of your idea, and an upload of your pitch deck. The site publishes no role inbox, phone number, intake window, eligibility criteria or deadline, and it does not say how pitches are reviewed or how quickly you will hear back.
