Overview
A ranked investor shortlist with match reasons and source-cited recent deals.
What you get
Public-source investor shortlist for an early-stage fundraise. Input: company profile, funding stage, sector, geo, comparable companies. Output: ranked investors with match reason, source URLs, per-entry confidence, caveats, outreach priority. Distinguishes recent_dated_deals (ISO date >= 2024-01, post-checked) from notable_portfolio_companies (legacy names) so the buyer isn't misled by historical IPOs. Low-confidence entries are demoted to low_confidence_candidates. Public web only — no paid feeds, no private contacts.
- Investor shortlist markdown
- Structured JSON with source manifest
