Case Study: Antler builds a smarter Series A funnel with Harmonic

Antler builds a smarter Series A funnel across 20+ ecosystems with Harmonic

Antler Elevate, the Series A+ fund of global venture capital firm Antler, faced the challenge of identifying breakout investment candidates at scale across its vast portfolio and the broader market. The lean team needed a faster, data-driven method to prioritize companies gaining momentum and to efficiently turn broad investment themes into targeted founder outreach. To address this, they implemented Harmonic's platform, utilizing its Scout AI, Research Reports, and Affinity integration.

Using Harmonic, the team layered in quantitative and behavioral signals to spot inflection points and identify promising net-new opportunities aligned with their thesis. The solution dramatically accelerated their sourcing funnel, growing outbound to a significant portion of their pipeline. This enabled them to operate with greater speed and focus, culminating in direct investments sourced through the platform.
