How Jack Altman Hit 100x Growth With Uncapped: AI, VC, Founders

Jack Altman built Lattice into a multi-billion-dollar category leader, raising hundreds of millions along the way.


Now he runs Alt Capital, backing 25 bold AI startups out of the $150M AUM fund III. This includes existing portfolio companies like Antares, Owner.com, David AI, Retell AI and more.


In addition to that, we breakdown Jack’s new podcast Uncapped, which recently reached escape velocity in just 14 episodes after interviews. Uncapped is a podcast where Jack interviews founders and investors he genuinely admires, using those conversations to publicly explore the inner workings of venture capital. Legendary guests include Marc Andreessen, Keith Rabois, Gary Tan, Josh Kopelman, Elad Gil, Aaron Levie, Qasar Younes, Elad Gil, Adam Guild, and of course, his brother Sam Altman.


In this episode with Molly O’Shea, he dives into:


• why there’s no such thing as a “right strategy” in VC

• how your board shapes your long-term trajectory

• what AGI could mean for our world, and more
