About

Jack Altman is a former founder-CEO of multi-billion-dollar HR software company Lattice who now invests with an "operator-first" lens at Alt Capital, using a simple durability test of whether products will still be in use 10+ years from now rather than chasing shorter-term trends. He uses his podcast Uncapped as a deliberate research tool for his fund, designing long-form conversations with top founders to ask questions that would be "super awkward over coffee" but are natural on camera, then feeds those insights directly into his investment strategy.
