I’ve been working on LPBacked.com, a database of limited partners that invest in venture funds.
If you’ve ever tried to figure out who actually invests in VC funds, you probably know how messy the data is. LP information is scattered across SEC filings, university reports, press releases, and random PDFs. There’s no simple place to search it.
LPBacked tries to pull that information together and make it searchable.
Right now you can:
Browse LPs (family offices, endowments, pensions, foundations, fund-of-funds, etc.)
See which venture funds they’ve invested in
Filter by LP type
Export the data
The original motivation was helping emerging managers find potential LPs, but I’ve also found it useful for research and just understanding how capital flows in venture.
It’s still early and the dataset is growing. I’m continuing to add LPs and fund relationships as I find them
