Hi everyone! I haven’t launched anything on here since LaunchKit joined Google. It’s time to change that. 😊 I’ve been building this over the course of a few weekends, and it’s time to just share it publicly with the community. When running LaunchKit, I updated our investors monthly, which I thought it was very important (I wrote about that here). Many founders don’t do it because it can be a pain. So I made a simple app that helps with that. This tool is a super easy way to generate and send an update to your investors. You can send the same info to all, or only send growth / financial info to investors you designate having information rights. The tool will also automatically compare this month to past months and show how you’re growing over time. There are a few more bells and whistles too. But I’m trying to keep it simple. For people who have no problem sending updates, this probably isn’t for them. Which is fine. (Though I’d still love your feedback.) For people who need some help, give it a try! It’s free while in beta. Post-beta pricing is on the homepage. Lemme know what you think! Hope it’s useful! Brenden

@mulligan from cluster to Launchkit have been a big fan of your products! My company is bootstrapped so won't get a chance to try it, but it looks great as usual

Would also like to have a secondary group of interested

parties. These are people who would receive a less detailed

report.

Pros:

Removes the tedious work out of IR.

Cons:

Wish I could import my IR google contact group

Thanks Michelle! You could add your secondary group as Stakeholders who dont have Information Rights. They wouldn't get growth or financial info, but would get the other sections. That's the only way to separate it for now.

Back to your LaunchKit roots, @mulligan. 😊 A big concern founders have with sharing sensitive data is security. How is this information protected?

@rrhoover oh I like the "PRO" badge! :) Totally hear you on security. All connections are over SSL and report data is fully encrypted before saved to the database.
Andy O'Dower
@mulligan good to hear on security. You get lots of customers and then hacked tons of very sensitive data in here. No more/less secure than Dropbox/emails/etc I suppose. Will try it out!
