Before we touch price, I want to see how buyers react to per-pick vs. a flat monthly fee. Can you run five interviews with the warehouses in the pilot?

02 · The problem
What this costs you today
What hurts
What hurts
Early-stage deal flow arrives through personal networks and stops there
No screening process that scales past the person doing it
Direct investments sit outside whatever system holds the rest of the portfolio
The company that was too early is never revisited
Reporting to the principal is assembled by hand
The stack it replaces
The stack it replaces
A personal network, an inbox, a spreadsheet, and a data provider subscription nobody has time to use.
Where you end up
Where you end up
You see deal flow at origination. Thesis screening and watch lists for too-early companies are coming soon.
03 · The jobs
What it takes off your desk
Source at origination

Deal flow straight from the programs

Watch the too-early

A watch list for companies you saw too early

Run the pipeline

A Kanban board for your deal pipeline
Move a deal from prospect to committed, with stages, owners and conversation history attached. Pipeline is coming soon.
