Blockperfect is an early-stage venture studio providing services to startups focused on AI, blockchain, intellectual property, and the creator economy.
We believe great ideas should be shared.
Blockperfect's mission is to support early-stage ventures and make entrepreneurial opportunity accessible to everyone. To aid in our mission, we've partnered with hundreds of exited founders and senior executives to provide hands-on support to drive opportunities to revenue and on to exit.
Investing in venture-backed businesses is a risky undertaking - on average, in any given year, 95% of portfolio companies will fail without ever returning a profit, so venture funds must rely on a statistical likelihood of funding a “unicorn” to reliably produce a competitive Internal Rate of Return (IRR).
To effectively manage risk, funds are forced to sacrifice deal flow, and this is where friction between fund managers and founders can take root. This friction changes the focus toward conflict and away from the business. It leaves founders frustrated, unable to see their products to market, and fund managers with a high deal acquisition cost.
Bain and Company, in a survey of their client base, found that, on average, as companies grow, only 10% outperform their markets on a revenue basis and 5% on an earnings basis.
When asked why, the leaders of those companies didn’t cite the market; they cited an inability to focus the company's efforts on a singular set of goals and outcomes.
That’s why we created Founder’s Roadmap—a step-by-step set of guides to starting and operating a high-growth startup.
Founder’s Roadmap.
Blockperfect provides a vertically integrated fractionalized service where founders can receive long-term hands-on help from proven experts with prior exit experience. Together with the Founder’s Roadmap, these resources are available, as-needed, fractionalized. Founders can benefit from 100’s years of experience - at a cost of less than one FTE. To ensure founders receive maximum value, we carefully vet our bench and partner network to bring day-one operational maturity to the team as a peer. With this model, Blockperfect can substantially reduce the risk for all parties and align resources toward a jointly achievable and planned roadmap informed by data and executed by a depth of experience otherwise out of reach.
Venture studios typically create startups by incubating their in-house ideas or ideas from their partners. The studio's internal team works with founders to help build the minimum viable product and validate the concept by finding product/market fit and early customers.
Repeat entrepreneurs with a successful track record of exits are twice as likely to exit as first-time founders. They have a deep understanding of their market and industry, as well as a wealth of experience and knowledge in building and scaling successful businesses.
They will likely have a strong network of connections and resources, which can be crucial in securing funding and partnerships. Additionally, they gained valuable lessons and insights from their previous ventures, allowing them to avoid common pitfalls and make more informed decisions. These factors contribute to an experienced founder’s ability to outperform startups by first-time founders, but at Blockperfect, first-time founders can level the playing field.
By providing mentorship and guidance from experienced entrepreneurs over the life cycle of the business, Blockperfect's direction toward market leadership helps startups achieve key milestones and create traction in their markets sooner, leading to higher valuations and more favorable terms of investment.
“We believe every great idea deserves support. We arm founders with the tools and support to take an idea from conception to revenue.”

Blockperfect's Founder’s Roadmap program is a comprehensive plan for moving the organization forward. The program includes a series of milestones, each designed to help the organization validate the market, define metrics, validate the management team, validate the technology, validate revenue conversion, and propose a transaction to prepare to pitch. Once the proposal has been approved, the legal team will send a contract to the entity and the founders to initiate the engagement.
