Jonathan Politzki

My name is Jonathan. I am an alumnus of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, where I studied finance and engineering. I am passionate about building companies and the future that should exist.

I started Irreverent Capital, a venture creation fund, that builds companies solving unaddressed societal problems.

Our first company is Jean. Jean is building the universal gas station for user understanding.

I am pioneering a new field researching how we can map the complexity of our minds into computational space through our writing. See my essay General Personal Embeddings on this topic. I am the most proud of this piece of writing to date.

I believe human focus is the most misallocated resources on planet Earth. I have established Politzki's Law as a fundamental principle for what it will mean to be human in a world of machines and the Human Focus Optimization Theory (HFOT) as pragmatic guidance for how we should allocate our uniquely human strengths.

Feel free to reach out to meet. I am interested in collaborating with entrepreneurs, companies, academics, and thematic investors.
