About SF Playground
An SF-based platform for live startup pitches and real investor decisions.
Our Mission
We believe that great startups deserve real opportunities. Too many founders spend months trying to get in front of investors, only to receive generic feedback or no response at all.
SF Playground changes that. We create an environment where startups can pitch live to active VCs who make real decisions. No waiting. No gatekeeping. Just real capital and real feedback.
We're building the future of startup fundraising — one live pitch at a time.
