		irollboozers on Sept 24, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Invest in Startups There is no definition of 'seed', so I'm not sure where you're getting these ideas. Seed is just pre-Series A. I am a YC W13 founder and I just raised a 'seed' round. Our investors signed the paperwork as a 'seed' round. We raised >$500k.

That would be highly unusual. But it doesn't matter that much to me if it's true. We were simply talking about different thing when saying "seed". No harm done.
