VC partner email decoder
Type the firm's domain and the partner's name. Get the 5 most likely email patterns, ranked by how common each pattern is across 8,665 active VC firms in our database.
Enter at least a first name and a firm domain to see likely email patterns.
Why this works
Across 8,665 VC firms in our database, just 5 email patterns cover roughly 95% of all firm addresses. Once you have one verified address at a firm, the pattern is readable, and every other partner's address can be synthesized from it.
The full breakdown of pattern prevalence by firm size, vintage, and type is in our analysis: I mapped the email patterns of 8,665 VC firms.
