I built AI tool to find the right VCs and it saved me weeks

Seedstr, a new AI tool for early-stage founders, ranks hundreds of seed investors against a company's pitch deck, financial model, and data room, providing a scored list of VCs with contact strategies. The tool, which claims to save weeks of research, scores firms on six factors including thesis fit, stage and check size, geography, portfolio conflicts, deal pace, and partner-level fit, with sample scores showing Homebrew at 91, Founder Collective at 84, and Cowboy Ventures at 76.

FAQ

Common questions #

Is my data secure?

Yes. Your materials stay private. We do’t view your files. We encrypt everything, in transit and at rest. We don’t use your raise materials for marketing, to train AI models, or for any purpose other than finding the best-matching VCs.

How does matching work?

Seedstr AI scores our database of early-stage investors against your company and assigns each firm a match score — then gives you contact details and a strategy for approaching every VC on your list.

How accurate is it?

We’re founders too, so precision matters to us. Our VC database is built and maintained by hand, so the data is top-notch. Seedstr AI is generally accurate, but it can make mistakes — verify important details before you act on them.
