About Bonfire Ventures Bonfire Ventures is a seed-stage venture capital firm that leads rounds for founders building AI-native B2B companies. With more than $18B in exit value and over two decades investing in business technology, Bonfire brings hard-earned pattern recognition from prior platform shifts. By design, the firm invests in just 10 to 12 companies a year, so the team can stay close to each founder from the messy early days through Series A and beyond.
