Overview

ExtraMile is building a community-first gaming and engagement platform for cricket fans — layering fantasy, social and creator tools on top of the world's most passionate sporting fandom.

Why MJV invested

Building fan experiences requires product craft and genuine fandom in equal measure — a pairing incumbents can rarely fake. The ExtraMile founders bring both, and it lets them design engagement loops that feel made by fans, for fans. That authenticity is why we backed them at seed. Instead of copying transactional fantasy models, they're building the community and creator layer that Indian cricket has been missing — and their early engagement depth reflects that difference. Backing founders who love the game as much as the product is a bet we're happy to make.
