The top 50 Latin America venture investors in 2026

Latin America's venture market is experiencing a significant shift as deal volume has fallen by more than half since 2022, with funding dropping from a $20.1 billion peak in 2021 to $4.8 billion last year. In this tighter market, the gap between the strongest and weakest venture portfolios has widened, highlighting the need for investors to adapt and focus on high-quality opportunities. To identify the most active and successful venture investors in the region, CB Insights has compiled a list of the top 50 Latin America venture firms based on recent deal activity from Q1 2023 to Q3 2025, early investments in potential unicorns, and portfolio exit share.

The ranking process took into account CB Insights' Mosaic scores and M&A probability to further differentiate the quality and potential of each portfolio. Mosaic scores, which range from 0 to 1,000, measure the health and potential of private companies, while the exit probability algorithm predicts the likelihood of an IPO or acquisition within the next two years. These metrics help investors and analysts understand the long-term viability of a firm's investments.

One of the key takeaways from the list is the strong focus of Latin America's top investors on AI-driven solutions for sales and customer service. The top three venture capital firms—Bossa Invest, Redpoint Eventures, and DOMO.VC—have directed a quarter of their deals since 2023 to AI companies, with sales and customer service applications accounting for 35% of those bets. This trend is not surprising, given that the majority of Latin American businesses are resource-constrained small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). AI tools offer these companies a way to scale efficiently without significantly increasing their headcount.

Among the standout portfolio companies in the AI space, Octagora emerges as an AI-powered customer service platform that remotely assists in resolving technical issues. Similarly, TuTo Digital deploys AI agents to automate sales and customer service interactions, providing a scalable solution for businesses looking to improve efficiency.

The ranking also underscores the importance of tracking investors' portfolios by Mosaic scores to identify potential future winners. By focusing on companies with high Mosaic scores, investors can better position themselves for long-term success in an increasingly competitive market.

Venture firms are encouraged to reach out to analyst@cbinsights.com to ensure their full portfolio is represented in the rankings. As the Latin America venture market continues to evolve, it is crucial for investors to remain adaptable and focused on high-quality opportunities that align with the region's unique business landscape. With a proven track record and a strategic focus on AI-driven solutions, the top 50 Latin America venture investors are well-positioned to navigate the current economic challenges and capitalize on future growth opportunities.

A simple way to get more value from metrics

We spent one day 1 building a system that immediately found a mid 7 figure optimization (which ended up shipping). In the first year, we shipped mid 8 figures per year worth of cost savings as a result. The key feature this system introduces is the ability to query metrics data across all hosts and all services and over any period of time (since inception), so we've called it LongTermMetrics (LTM) internally since I like boring, descriptive, names. This got started when I was looking for a starter project that would both help me understand the Twitter infra stack and also have some easily quantifiable value. Andy Wilcox suggested looking at JVM survivor space utilization for some large services. If you're not familiar with what survivor space is, you can think of it as a configurable, fixed-size buffer, in the JVM (at least if you use the GC algorithm that's default at Twitter). At the time, if you looked at a random large services, you'd usually find that either: The buffer was too small, resulting in poor performance, sometimes catastrophically poor when under high load. The buffer was too large, resulting in wasted memory, i.e., wasted money. But instead of looking at random services, there's no fundamental reason that we shouldn't be able to query all services and get a list of which services have room for improvement in their configuration, sorted by performance degradation or cost savings. And if we write that query for JVM survivor space, this also

Context Engineering for Coding Agents

The number of options we have to configure and enrich a coding agent’s context has exploded over the past few months. Claude Code is leading the charge with innovations in this space, but other coding assistants are quickly following suit. Powerful context engineering is becoming a huge part of the developer experience of these tools. Birgitta Böckeler explains the current state of context configuration features, using Claude Code as an example. more…

What does less protein and nitrogen mean for methane?

Does feeding less protein to cows over a longer period not only reduce nitrogen losses, but also affect methane emissions? Researchers at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) investigated this in a multi-year study with dairy cows, funded by the Vereniging Diervoederonderzoek Nederland (VDN), the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature (LVVN), and […] The post What does less protein and nitrogen mean for methane? appeared first on Agriland.ie .
