Fundraising readiness check-up

Most startups lose their shot at funding over mistakes they could have seen coming. Take the check-up to find your weak spots before you start fundraising — while there is still time to fix them.

Take the check-up

Your startup is due for a check-up if

You are not sure your startup has grown into raising funding yet — or which kind of funding fits

You are preparing to pitch investors and want to be ready for the uncomfortable questions

You have recently been turned down for funding and want to understand what went wrong

A lot has changed in your startup since your last grant or investment

How it works

Step 1.
Complete the questionnaire

6 blocks, 60 questions, 3 answer options each. The check-up covers product, market, finances, team and documents — and highlights what is worth strengthening before you fundraise.

Step 2.
Review your results

"Still too early" or "ready to talk to funds"? The moment you finish the check-up, you get your Investment Readiness Score, a personalised summary and a breakdown across every area of your startup analysed.

Step 3.
Find out what to do next

See which of the 6 blocks still leave you room to grow. If you want to go deeper, request a consultation to talk your results through.
