Cursor Capital partners with founders building the tools of modern craft. Founded by Badrul.

I’m a product leader and early-stage investor based in San Francisco. I was Figma’s first Product Manager, joining before its public launch, and led product teams that built the core design tool, Plugins, Figma Community, and more. At Square, I led the teams responsible for global product onboarding and our internal developer platform.

My career began as an engineer, building award-winning mobile apps at Expedia, scaling global fulfillment systems at Teespring, and creating interactive experiences for millions of people at Hook. These experiences helped me refine my sense of product quality, craftsmanship, and building products at a global scale.

I started Cursor Capital because I believe there is enormous potential for software to help everyone be more creative in their work. The creative tool market is large and growing, but professions that aren’t traditionally seen as creative are stuck using legacy tools that stifle creativity, productivity, and innovation.

My goal is to help grow the next generation of tools that amplify human creativity, whether that’s expressed in code, in a spreadsheet, on a map, or a perfectly generated video. Tools that allow anyone to bring creativity to their work and make it enjoyable to do so. Software that, like a 21st-century bicycle, accelerates the process of expressing, interrogating, and iterating on an idea.
If you’re building anything that resembles a creative tool or a design-first developer tool or enterprise product, let’s talk.
