Found Capital Avis 359

Getting specific and actionable feedback is both key and rare during a fundraise. Thank you to the Found team for providing both!

As with all founders we are making numerous applications for funding and most disappear without trace or comment. Founders was completely different, with great feedback throughout the process and an evident desire to be transparent.
Good luck in your pursuit to make this the norm across the Investment Industry.

It's rare to get good feedback from investors even if they do not end up investing. Found is committed to changing this and we at MultiplAI Health applaud that. Thanks for the great pointers and honest reasoning. It helps us get a little closer to success.

Laurence and Found was one of the best experiences I've had when applying for funding. Access to their dashboard was worth the application alone, but receiving hyper-personalised feedback with specific points was incredibly validating.

It is rare a investor actually provides useful feedback during the review process, so this was great.

Feedback is so important for founders as we are raising and not only did I received initial feedback, I then received a response and additional feedback when I questioned the first communication. Very impressive and extremely helpful.

As a start up applying to Found Capital was a relatively painless process. They provide a benchmarking option which was really informative and they are one of the few investors who take the time to provide feedback.

The process was very clear and I was kept up to date on how the process was running and they set clear expectations on when I would hear back on each round was to be received, and ultimately got detailed feedback on their decision.

While it was sad not to be able to look up the founding members profiles on the website, which i think would give it more of a personal touch - it was fabulous to receive the individual feedback given unlike many other angel groups.

The process is really clear and concise, only asking for more detailed info as you progress, ensuring the time investment from founders mirrors the group's interest.

Quick and efficient process, only asking for more info as your progress through their stages, and then feedback.

Smoothest process I've seen with a syndicate

Dealing with Laurence and Found Capital was a pleasure - very supportive, clear process and great communication.

I would definitely recommend Found Capital to any founders involved in raising capital.

I dealt with Found Capital whilst looking for investment to take my business to the next stage. Although it ultimately wasn't something they could help us with, they were professional throughout. They kept me informed all the way through the process and offered extensive and helpful feedback.

Well run business, prompt with feedback - positive or not

Looking for investment can be very disheartening especially when you just hear nothing back, Found capital although we weren't successful kept us in loop and provided us with essential feedback which in all honesty most just don't bother, so well done guys !!

A VC "fund" that replies and even when they decide not to invest, at least give you thoughtful feedback.

Found through LinkedIn through one of our VCs and got talking to. An interesting model as it’s all done online / automation / algorithms etc and they feedback clearly and openly on process and ideas with the good and bad. Smallish cheques and open debate over whether it’s better to get to know founders and ideas in depth / f2f etc but I like their model and open and friendly guys.

In a world renowned for being a black hole, it's been very refreshing submitting our startup pitch deck to Found Capital for review.

We submitted online and received a quick confirmation that it had been received which included an overview of next steps. Despite it being the end of year holiday period, Laurence kept us updated on the status. When we did receive the feedback it was specific and actionable. I even replied to provide some additional context and received a very helpful response.

We didn't progress to the next step, but we got the respect and feedback that every startup founder wants and needs. There are a LOT of VCs and funds that could learn from their approach.

The startup world moves fast and companies iterate and pivot, just because our business isn't right for VC investment now, when we are successful I know who I'll be answering emails from, and who not.

It was a pleasure exploring alignmemt with Laurence and found capital. Their time and attention to detail give us a great sense of how our business is positioned, and with an additional few milestones hit, taking on board their guidance where primed for success in 2025. Thank you to all the Found Capital Team.

As a first time fundraiser, the experience with Found Capital was very good. It wasn't the right fit for them, but there was good communication throughout and feedback on the business and deck despite not moving forward with it

Fantastic post review process, with detailed and genuinely insightful feedback - including itemised points that would help to increase conviction.
