Investor Research

When to Use

• The founder is preparing to fundraise and needs a target investor list.
• The founder has a list of investors and wants to qualify or prioritize them.
• The founder asks which VCs or angels are a good fit for their stage, sector, or geography.
• The founder wants to understand a specific fund's thesis, portfolio, or decision-making process.

Context Required

From startup-context: stage, sector/category, location, current round target (amount), business model, and any existing investor relationships or warm connections.

From the user: geographic preferences (if any), whether they want VC-only, angel-only, or both, any investors already in conversation, and any firms they want to explicitly avoid (e.g., portfolio conflicts they know about).
