The most seasoned seed stage venture capital firm focused on the New York City technology ecosystem
"Contour was the first institutional investor to commit capital to our seed round and they have invested in every subsequent round. They saw the potential for Datadog early on and have been valued partners to the company on many levels at each step along the company’s journey from seed stage to IPO."

Olivier Pomel, CEO and co-founder
"Contour was our first institutional investor and helped us build the critical aspects of our business from the beginning. Any early stage company looking for the right mix of operational, financial, strategic skills and solid all around business judgment should work hard to get Contour on their team."

Andrew Dreskin, CEO and co-founder
"Contour has been an extension of our operating team ever since they led our seed round. They have played an integral role as board member, sounding board and advisor in helping guide the company to the point where we now have 700 major brands as happy and growing customers."

Vivek Sharma, CEO and co-founder
"Contour was our first institutional investor and was our only outside director for several years. They were a great partner and advisor who actively helped and added value in all major facets of our business as we scaled to over $100 million in revenue at our exit to GTCR."

Frost Prioleau, CEO and co-founder
"Contour was the only institution we brought into our company early on and ever since they have been the ideal early stage lead investor. They have been helpful with every material aspect of our business and are a terrific partner and friend."

Ryan Urban, CEO and founder
"Contour is not just an investor - they are a true business partner. Whether I am seeking input on a strategic relationship, analyzing a complex business decision or exploring financing alternatives, their experienced team always provides sound, invaluable and insightful advice."

Jason Finger, CEO and founder
