About Jacob Andreou
Jacob Andreou co-founded and led product at the analytics startup ThinkAkili from May 2012 to March 2015. He then spent about eight years at Snap, starting as a design engineer. His later roles there included director of Growth, vice president of Product, and head of growth, where he was responsible for Snapchat's monetization products, growth operations and data science.
In 2023 he left Snap to become Greylock's ninth general partner, focused on early-stage consumer technology. Greylock's announcement says he ran growth, data science, analytics and user research teams at Snap.
He later moved to Microsoft AI. In March 2026 CNBC reported that Satya Nadella named him an executive vice president in charge of the consumer and commercial Copilot experience, reporting to Nadella.
Fortune reported in 2023 that Andreou had already done some angel investing while at Snap, including in the creator video app Captions and in In Search Of. Crunchbase lists him as an investor in the seed rounds of Mirage (the Captions round), FLORA and District. It also lists him as a board member at Lapse. Check size and ownership for his personal angel investments are not public.
Andreou took part in District's $14.7M seed round, announced in May 2026. District is an AI commerce platform. The round was led by Andreessen Horowitz and Kindred Ventures, with Greylock Partners, SV Angel, 20VC and several individual angels also participating. Crunchbase also lists FLORA and Mirage among his investments. This page does not describe what those two companies do or when he invested in FLORA, because the sources do not say.
At Greylock his stated focus was early-stage consumer products. NFX Signal ranks him in Los Angeles / Southern California consumer internet at seed and Series A. NFX lists an investment range of $2.0M to $20.0M with a $10.0M sweet spot. That figure is a Greylock fund-level estimate on a third-party site, not a statement about his personal angel checks. Andreou has not publicly stated a personal angel check size.
