The method

Three steps to a pipeline you can trust

1Claim & verify

Claim & verify

Find your organisation, verify your work email and your role. Verification is proportional: light to collaborate, strong to administer.

2Build your mandate

Build your mandate

Turn your thesis into an operational mandate: hard criteria, weighted preferences, exclusions, cheque range. Usable in your first session.

3Qualify and decide

Qualify and decide

Work each curated wave of startups matched to your mandate — fit explained against your criteria, evidence of what each startup has shared with you, and a pipeline you run end to end.

What you get

Built for how investment teams actually decide

Not a lead marketplace — an analysis layer on top of your own mandate.

Mandate Builder

Versioned, shareable investment mandates.

Curated waves

You never see a feed. Startups arrive in finite, filtered waves matched to your mandate — you work each wave before the next one opens.

Fit, explained

Every match is scored against your actual thesis — sector, stage, ticket, geography, instrument — with the reasoning visible, not a black-box score.

Pipeline OS

Owners, deadlines, decision reasons and full audit trail. Replace the spreadsheet.

Evidence you can trust

Every claim labelled: fact, company claim, estimate, unknown or stale. Nothing invented, ever.

Consent-based introductions

On MatchDeal, our companion discovery app, interest becomes an introduction only when both sides opt in — no cold exposure, no unsolicited decks.

Access

Browse privately. Engage on your terms.

Explore your mandate-matched opportunities in private — no tracking, no pressure, no founder wondering why you looked. When you're ready to go further, introductions run on MatchDeal, our companion discovery app, where the startup decides and a mutual opt-in is what opens identity or a data room.

  • Explore your matches privately, always
  • No founder notifications while you're just looking
  • Consent-based introductions on MatchDeal — the startup opts in before identity is shared

Questions

Frequently asked

Is my deal flow private?

Yes. Your mandate and the startups matched to it are private to your organisation by default. It is never used to grow the marketplace or train shared models without your explicit consent.

Who can see startup data?

Only verified investor organisations with a complete profile and an active mandate. Browsing your matches is private — founders aren’t notified while you’re exploring. When you want to go further, introductions happen on MatchDeal, our companion discovery app: the startup decides, and only a mutual opt-in opens identity or a data room.

How do you verify investors?

Work email and domain for collaboration; stronger proof — including official registry checks — for organisation control and sensitive actions.

What does "qualified opportunity" mean?

A company that passed your mandate’s hard criteria and received a full analysis: fit, evidence, risks and a recommended action. Raw names on a list do not count against your capacity.
