Investor Fit Finder FAQ
Common questions founders ask before diving into the investor preview.
How do you score investor fit?
We compare your industries, stage, and geography with each investor’s disclosed focus, recent activity, and thesis keywords.
How fresh is the investor data?
Profiles refresh every few weeks. Recently active investors receive a higher fit score so you can prioritize outreach.
Why are contacts blurred in the Lite preview?
Emails, phone numbers, and LinkedIn URLs stay masked until you unlock a plan. The Lite view shows you the match quality first.
Can I export the investor list?
Full CSV exports and unmasked contacts are available with a DataPile subscription. Use the Unlock button to get started.
Does this guarantee a meeting?
No tool can guarantee responses, but data-backed fit scoring helps you focus on the most relevant funds and angels.
How founders put the Investor Fit Finder to work
The Lite experience gives you a strategic snapshot of which investors resonate with your thesis before you pay for a plan. Founders use it to validate funder lists, compare geographies, and spin up more relevant cold outreach. Explore a few popular workflows below.
Pre-raise research without a data team
Surface aligned investors before you ever send a deck. The Lite version maps thesis signals, recent investments, and check sizes so you can build a thoughtful longlist that actually matches your stage and focus.
Sharpen your outreach narrative
Use the filters to see how investors talk about their sweet spot. Mirror that language in your emails and introductions so every touch feels personal rather than a generic blast.
Collaborate with co-founders and advisors
Copy a shareable link and invite collaborators to comment on which partners feel warmest. Notes stay inside your team, and no login is required for reviewers.
Usage tips for stronger matches
Pair the tool with thoughtful filters and internal notes so you keep a clean investor pipeline while you prepare for outreach.
- Start broad with industries, then add geography and check size to focus the list.
- Toggle lead-only investors when you want someone to set terms instead of following.
- Sort by recent activity to prioritize funds still writing checks in your category.
- Export and sync with our Funding Readiness Quiz to cover narrative and proof gaps.
