Standard Metrics, a San Francisco-based AI-driven portfolio management platform for venture capital and private equity firms, has raised $20 million in Series B funding led by 8VC, with participation from Salesforce Ventures, Spark Capital, January Capital, First Trust Capital Partners, Socii Capital, Kindergarten Ventures, Calm Ventures, and Gaingels. The main objective is to deepen the company’s AI capabilities—including AI document parsing, an on-platform AI Analyst, and MCP interoperability—expand its team, and extend its wealthtech platform to more private-market investors and portfolio companies; the company says its business has grown roughly 20x since its Series A. Standard Metrics now supports more than 10,000 portfolio companies and 150 investment firms collectively managing over $400 billion in assets, with 30% of the current Forbes Midas List among its customers. Key players include Standard Metrics co-founder and CEO John Melas-Kyriazi, who framed the round as a bet that “firms who embrace AI now will be the ones defining the next era of the private markets,” and 8VC board member and partner Alex Moore, who co-founded the company alongside Standard Metrics in 2020.
