Strattam Capital

Strattam Capital

Strattam Capital was founded in 2014 by Bob Morse and Adrian Polak, who structured the firm explicitly for control-oriented investments in B2B software. The Austin- and San Francisco-based manager targets companies that can become vertical market leaders, operating outside the broader multi-asset platforms that dominate mid-market tech buyouts. The firm runs a concentrated buyout-and-growth strategy across enterprise software, layering AI enablement onto every platform investment. Its in-house value-creation team fields operating partners, product and technology principals, and a Chief of Staff program that embeds junior operators inside portfolio companies. Add-on M&A is a stated acceleration tool, with the deal team running target identification, diligence, and execution. Confirmed sectors include AI/ML and vertical B2B software, with geographic emphasis on North America. Strattam reports over $1B in assets under management and operates a network that includes portfolio CEO summits, an internal knowledge hub called Strattam Accelerate, and an advisory committee of senior operators. The firm's website discloses a contact office at 601 California Street in San Francisco alongside its Austin headquarters. The principals have not disclosed total deployment, team headcount, or fund-level performance benchmarks. Strattam's structural differentiator is a binding Five-Point Plan executed before a deal closes — the firm publicly states it will not proceed to signing without documented alignment between the GP and the founder on vision, metrics, and governance. Combined with its dedicated AI consultancy and AWS Private Equity program membership, this pre-close alignment model is unusually explicit for a lower-mid-market software buyout firm, turning what is often informal post-close planning into a contractual starting point.
