Frequently asked

Q1

What counts as an active seed investor here?

At least one seed deal on record, at least one deal of any stage in the past year, and a partner we can actually reach. The last condition is what makes this list shorter than a database dump: an investor nobody can contact is not a lead.

Q2

How many investors do founders contact to get meetings?

Founders in our Raise Benchmarks reached 45 to 900 investors per round. Tyred closed £2.5M from 8 investors after 15 first meetings. Besample reached 900 investors for 55 first meetings.

Q3

How do I get a warm intro to these investors?

Fundraisly's Warm Intro maps your team's LinkedIn connections against every investor in this database and shows which of these funds and angels a colleague can introduce you to.
