RECEIPTS
investing in proof, not promises.
ReceiptsVC is Jaclyn Johnson’s investing platform, rooted in one belief: back founders with proof, not just promises. Jaclyn founded Create & Cultivate, bootstrapped it into a multi-million-dollar media and events business, sold it, and later bought it back. Today, she is the co-founder of Cherub, a platform helping founders unlock early-stage capital through community and network. She invests in companies at the intersection of brand, community, and culture because she knows firsthand what it takes to build them.
Investment Thesis
Early Stage
Receipts VC writes checks early. We back founders with something real: early users, early revenue, signs that the market is responding. The pitch matters less than what the numbers are starting to say.
Tech Forward
We invest in technology-centric companies across consumer, healthcare, and emerging platforms – with a specific focus on women’s health. We back companies with real utility and a market that is starting to pull.
RECEIPTS
We look for proof you can build. Bring the receipts — why you’re the person to solve this problem, and why this idea is built to win. We’re drawn to founders with real insight, real momentum, and the ability to execute when it’s still scrappy.
We can help
We back founders where we can open doors. We leverage our network, our community, and direct experience building and exiting companies. We are operators first.
