Fundraising materials
Walk into an investor conversation with the documents they expect to see.
What it is
Investor documents drafted from your research and a short set of fundraising questions: a venture-capital readiness assessment, and an investor memo, the narrative that tells your story. Your investor slide deck is generated too and lives in the deck studio.
Why it matters
Fundraising materials should be grounded in evidence, not hype. These drafts separate your verified traction from projections and label every comparable or valuation as an estimate unless your research supports it.
How it works
Answer the fundraising questions and, once your research is far enough along, generate your assessment and memo. They stay private to you, even on a project you have shared with other people, and are available to your notebook for context.
Buy it once, without a subscription
You can also buy the Investor Memo on its own. It comes with a read on how fundable your idea looks today and a matching pitch deck built from the same research. See the investor memo page for the price and to start one.
Common questions
What do I get for a pre-seed raise?
An investor-readiness assessment, an investor memo, and an investor deck (in Deck Studio), all drafted from your research so the numbers and story line up.
Will it invent traction or valuations?
No. The drafts separate verified traction from projections and label every comparable or valuation as an estimate unless your research supports it.
Is this useful for an accelerator application?
Yes. The same evidence-backed memo and deck are what a strong YC or Techstars application is built on.
If I share my project, can my collaborators read these?
No. Your investor pack stays with you. Sharing a project gives people access to your research, and to your action plan if you choose, but never to your valuation, your raise, or your memo.
