Zigg Capital

What Zigg Capital does

Zigg Capital is a New York-based venture capital firm that invests in early to growth-stage companies at the intersection of real estate and technology. Founded in 2019, the firm is led by a five-person team — Ryan Orley, Dave Eisenberg, Guy Johnston, Elizabeth Chrystal, and Giulia Martins — and backs entrepreneurs operating in construction, residential and commercial real estate, property management, mortgage and lending technology, insurance, hospitality, and adjacent verticals. The firm operates a single global investment platform and has built a portfolio of approximately 35 companies, including recognizable names such as Procore, VTS, Snapdocs, Juniper Square, OpenSpace, Kasa, and Cherre.

Zigg's core product is its capital, supplemented by strategic support and industry relationships drawn from the team's real estate technology experience. Its $225 million Fund II (announced 2023) is backed by leading universities, sovereign wealth funds, and philanthropic organizations, and the firm has participated as both lead and follow-on investor across seed, Series A, and later stages. Recent portfolio activity in 2025–2026 shows a tilt toward AI-native applications (Rentana, Hakimo, Sidekick, Zefir's ZIA assistant, allO's restaurant operating system) and geographic diversification into Europe (Zefir, allO), Latin America (Habi, Loft), and Australia (Sucasa).

The firm's business model follows standard venture capital mechanics: it earns management fees on committed and deployed capital, with the potential for carried interest on successful exits. The firm sources deals primarily through its professional network, direct founder relationships, and inbound inquiries, and distributes capital and strategic support through direct equity investments in negotiated funding rounds. As a 1–10 person specialist manager, Zigg Capital competes on thesis depth and network reach rather than scale.
