I'm honored to have helped consult on this product as it's automated many of the key insights that smart investors would give to startups on resources and benchmarks for their business. The fact is 99% of startups will never receive VC and won't get access to those insights. ClearAngel makes that knowledge available to hundreds of thousands more companies, similar to what Google Adwords did for marketing or Angelist did for fundraising.
We’ve invested $1.6 billion in more than 4,000 companies, but had to turn down ten times more founders than we funded because they didn’t meet our revenue threshold. It’s never been easier to start a business but it’s still insanely hard to build a successful one. So many founders need someone they can lean on for advice. ClearAngel is our first product for early-stage founders from all walks of life who are seeing initial traction, but don’t have the network to raise an angel round or get into Y Combinator.
The capital is one thing, but the benchmarks of data make this one of the most compelling DTC tools I’ve seen in a long time. Congrats Andrew and team.
Very cool! I absolutely believe that capital should be more accessible at the earlier stages and it's good on you guys for making that happen. I hope it's wildly successful :)
this is super exciting! as a founder with a blue-collared family and no rich family to raise a friends + family round, this is genius. This takes networking, data insights and funding into a whole new level!
I think ClearAngel has the potential to be a game-changer for many startups and brands. We're really helping founders learn and grow here. We put lots of ❤️ into this so far and we've got lots more 💥 to make it even better.
