Investors at TechCrunch Disrupt advise on raising a Series A and warn of an AI-driven venture correction in 2027
At TechCrunch Disrupt, three investors from Peak XV, Index Ventures and Bessemer described how founders can raise a Series A in the current market. Shailendra Singh of Peak XV called seed and venture markets the most dysfunctional he has seen and predicted a correction as soon as 2027. He cited inflated ARR figures, rounds priced at up to three different prices at once, and rounds split into tranches ("tranchopalooza"). The panel said capital is flowing into defense, robotics and AI infrastructure, and that founders should tell a persuasive story, attract top talent and present honest time-series metrics.
