GV

GV (formerly Google Ventures) is the venture capital arm of Alphabet, founded in 2009 by Bill Maris and headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area with additional offices in New York, Cambridge, and London. With Alphabet as its sole limited partner, GV operates with the reliability of a single LP, the autonomy of a traditional venture firm, and deep technical expertise, investing from seed through growth stage across technology and life sciences. Its focus areas span AI, enterprise, consumer, frontier tech, and life sciences, with a heavy recent emphasis on the AI frontier, from applications and developer tools to infrastructure and healthcare. GV manages over $13 billion in assets and supports roughly 400 active portfolio companies across North America, Europe, and Israel. The firm has backed notable companies including Uber, Slack, GitLab, Nest, Flatiron Health, Lemonade, Vercel, Isomorphic Labs, and insitro, with a track record of more than 80 IPOs and 230+ M&A exits.

GV is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

GV is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
