关于我们

f7 Ventures is a pre-seed and seed fund investing in founders creating the future of work and the consumer utility to shape tomorrow. f7 was founded by Kelly Graziadei and Joanna Lee Shevelenko, who met in the trenches in the early days at Facebook, launching break-through products and helping to scale the company to a trillion-dollar valuation. Now, they've built f7 Ventures, fostering a strong ecosystem of best-in-class operators and investing in founders to build the next decade defining companies. The f7 team knows firsthand what great 0 to 1 talent looks like, and we're excited to partner with incredible founders to arm them with the tools and partners needed to build successful, evergreen companies.

    ?? The Path to True Autonomous Drones: Why Most Fail & How Corvus Succeeded Autonomous drones have long been a vision for logistics, defense, and industrial applications, yet many companies attempting to build them have struggled to make the leap from concept to commercialization. The challenges? Navigation in dynamic, GPS-denied environments, reliable obstacle avoidance, flight endurance, and seamless integration into existing operations. Many early attempts relied too heavily on GPS, external sensors, or rigid flight paths, making them vulnerable to real-world complexities. Others underestimated the importance of AI-driven adaptability—autonomy isn’t just about flying without a pilot; it’s about making real-time decisions in unpredictable environments. This is where Corvus Robotics has broken through. By leveraging AI-powered perception, their drones operate effectively in confined, GPS-denied spaces, such as warehouses and industrial sites. They don’t just collect data—they understand it, providing actionable insights that improve efficiency and accuracy. The journey wasn’t easy: battery life optimization, ensuring safety and compliance, and integrating with existing systems were significant hurdles. But by focusing on autonomy as more than just flight—prioritizing perception, decision-making, and enterprise utility—Corvus Robotics succeeded where others stalled. For companies looking to integrate autonomous drone technology, the lesson is clear: success isn’t about building drones; it’s about solving operational problems. Autonomy must be practical, scalable, and seamlessly fit into workflows to create real value. The future of autonomous drones isn’t just about machines in the air—it’s about intelligence in motion, and Jackie Wu shares those insights and what the journey looked like to be able to succeed in this incredible technology. We'd love to hear from others working on autonomy—what challenges do you see? ??

    Co-founder & CEO at Fireflies.ai | Forbes 30U30

    Forbes just named Fireflies one of the Top Startup Employers of 2025. This was a pleasant surprise because we don’t talk much about hiring. We don’t market our open roles aggressively. And we intentionally keep the team small and hire slowly. Most startups at our stage are 500+ employees. We work hard to stay under 150. Dunbar’s Law says that’s the max number of social connections you can maintain—and we’ve found it makes for a stronger, tighter-knit team. Fireflies has been remote from day one—long before the pandemic made it a thing. Lately, a lot of tech companies are forcing people back into offices, saying remote work kills productivity. And yes, if you hire the wrong people, it absolutely can. I recently visited one of our teams overseas. Rode the local metro. It took 4 hours round trip just to get to work. That’s brutal. And it made me realize—so many people at other companies are showing up to work already exhausted. The problem isn’t remote work. It’s how you hire and who you hire. When you build a team of self-motivated, accountable people, they get stuff done—whether they’re in an office or not. It’s not a perfect system. Some people fly under the radar and do the bare minimum when not monitored in person. But we want to optimize for trust, ownership, and high standards than force everyone back in to the office. We're fortunate to have built a diverse team in 20+ countries and 40+ cities. Oh and yes we’re hiring :) If you want to work on some of the most exciting things in, AI check us out. I'm actively looking for people who have a passion for PLG to join our marketing and customer success teams. We also have several engineering roles available.
