One investor.
Two currencies:
capital.
Logan Lends backs early-stage startups two ways — a check to fund the plan, or hands-on operating time in exchange for equity. Pick the currency your company actually needs.
Money is one currency. Time is the other.
Most early companies don't fail from lack of ideas — they fail from lack of runway or lack of hands. Logan Lends covers both sides of that ledger.
A check that funds the plan
Direct cash investment for teams that know exactly what the next dollar buys.
- Checks from $25K to $250K
- SAFEs, convertible notes, or straight equity — founder's choice
- Decision inside two weeks, funds wired days after signing
- No board seat required at this stage
An operator in your corner
Sweat equity: dedicated weekly hours building alongside you — product, GTM, BD, or automation — in exchange for an equity stake.
- Committed blocks of 5–15 hours per week
- Shipping product, opening doors, or building your revenue engine
- Equity vests against milestones you help set
- Scope written down before anyone starts working
From application to term sheet in days, not quarters.

Tell me what you're building, where you are, and which currency you're asking for. No deck required — a clear paragraph beats forty slides.
One real conversation
If it's a fit, we get on a call within a week. Expect operator questions, not gotchas: unit economics, the bottleneck, what you'd do with the money or the hours.
Plain-English terms
You get a one-page term sheet you can actually read. Capital deals close fast; time deals start with a scoped 30-day sprint before equity vests.
Backed by someone who still ships.
Logan is a builder-turned-investor with 17+ years of founding, scaling, and operating companies — from a 49-person agency serving brands like Coca-Cola and Disney to a portfolio of ventures across fintech, healthcare, and AI. When Logan invests time, you're not getting an advisor who sends thoughts — you're getting an operator who opens the repo, writes the sequence, and makes the intro.
Ask for what you actually need.
Cash, time, or a mix of both. Applications get a real reply — every founder hears back within five business days, even if the answer is no.
The fine print, without the fine print.
Is this a loan or an investment?
Both structures are on the menu. Cash can be structured as a convertible note, a SAFE, or straight equity — whatever fits your cap table and stage. Time is always exchanged for equity that vests against agreed milestones.
What stage do you invest at?
Earliest of early: idea with a credible founder, prototype, or first revenue. If you already have a Series A, you probably need a bigger checkbook than this one.
How does the time-for-equity track actually work?
We agree on scope, weekly hours, and milestones up front — in writing. The first 30 days run as a scoped sprint so both sides can confirm the fit before any equity vests. After that, equity vests on a schedule tied to delivery, not just calendar time.
What kind of work can Logan actually do?
Shipping production web apps, AI automation and agent systems, go-to-market and business development, marketing sites, and revenue operations. If it moves the company forward and can be built or sold, it's in scope.
Do you take a board seat?
Not at this stage. You get an engaged backer, direct access, and honest input — you keep the wheel.
