Notes from founders using the directory, matcher, and unlocks.
“Honestly we were just guessing who to email. Filters got us from a random 200 name list to like 14 funds in one sitting. Not magic but saved my week.”
“Cheque size filter sounds boring until you stop pitching funds that literally don't write your round. Wish we had this two months earlier.”
“Matcher isn't perfect but it surfaced three funds we'd never heard of that actually list our sector. That's the whole point for us.”
“Five unlocks a day felt stingy at first. Now I think it's fine. Stops you from blasting the whole directory on day one.”
“We used one login for the team to research, then people made their own accounts when they needed emails. Simple enough.”
“Looked up who funded companies like us before a partner call. That one screen beat three hours on LinkedIn.”
“News next to the directory sounds gimmicky. Our intern actually uses it in the weekly pipeline doc. Fine by me.”
“Compared two funds side by side before we took a second meeting. Small thing. Felt less stupid walking in.”
“Raise calculator gave us a number band for the board deck before we talked to angels. Good enough for internal use.”
