[ 2026 → 2026 ]

Time Machine. Back the inevitable.

A group of angel investors, ten years ahead. We back founders building what the world looks like a decade from now.

Time Machine closes the gap between what founders are building today and the world they will have built by 2036.

Two ways in

Time Machine invests in founders building the world of 2036.

The 2036 lens

We invest from a decade ahead.

  1. SignalWeak signals and emerging patterns, before they're obvious.
  2. ThesisLong-term theses, pressure-tested against 2036.
  3. MembersTop angels aligned around the highest-conviction ideas.
We believe in
  • Backing founders who bend reality.
  • People who think impossible is an opinion.
  • Choosing courage over comfort.
  • Longevity over hype.
  • Seeing 2036 before it's obvious.
