Stage fit
How early or late is the founder relative to your typical investment stage?
For Capital Providers
Scored deal flow filtered against your stated thesis.
Each match shows its full six-criterion breakdown. Scoring is deterministic — no black box, no pattern-matching, no warm-intro dependency. The platform is infrastructure for capital providers who want to operate on signal, not noise.
How Matching Works
Six criteria. Threshold-driven. Fully explainable.
When a founder completes the Capital Readiness Assessment, deterministic scoring places them on the readiness map. The matching engine then compares each founder against your stated thesis along six criteria. When the composite match score crosses the threshold, that founder surfaces in your feed — with the full criterion-level breakdown attached, not buried.
Industry fit
Does the founder operate in an industry your thesis covers?
Geography fit
Is the founder in a region you actively deploy capital in?
Business model fit
Does the founder's business model match the structures you back (B2B SaaS, marketplaces, hardware, etc.)?
Revenue model fit
Does the founder's revenue model align with how you underwrite (subscription, transactional, licensing, etc.)?
Check size fit
Is the founder raising in a range your check size supports?
What You Get
Operational concreteness, not marketing fluff.
Deal Flow Feed
Scored matches against your stated thesis, ranked. Stage, industry, geography, business model, revenue model, and check-size filtering. Sort by score, by stage, by recency.
Match Explanations
Every match exposes its six-criterion breakdown. See exactly why a founder appears in your feed — and why the score is what it is. No opaque ranking, no proprietary recommendation engine to take on faith.
Direct Meeting Requests
Inline meeting request from each match card. Status tracking when founders accept, decline, or counter. Activity log of your own engagement. Thesis updates recompute matches.
Founding Cohort
A time-limited cohort for the first wave of capital providers.
FNDRYx is enrolling its first capital providers through a Founding Cohort program — a capped, time-limited entry path with structurally distinct terms from standard tier subscriptions. Members in the cohort receive multi-year platform access plus a path to permanent Founding Member status, earned through measurable engagement across three pillars: founder engagement (depth of profile review), meeting activity (requests, acceptance, attendance), and platform participation (login cadence, thesis updates, response time).
Engagement is measured cumulatively over the founding window. Members who clear the engagement threshold earn a permanent Founding Member designation plus lifetime discount on all post-cohort enrollment. Members who don't clear the threshold remain on platform at base discount terms — graceful non-retention, not exit.
Specific terms — pricing, cohort cap, engagement threshold — will be published when the cohort opens. To be notified at launch, request access below.
Methodology
Deterministic scoring. Explainable matches. No black box.
The Capital Readiness Assessment scores founders deterministically — JavaScript-based scoring, no LLM in the score-computation path. Threshold indicators (Exceptional, Solid, Developing, Foundational, Early) describe where each score falls. Quadrant placement (Forged, Tempering, Hot Iron, Ore) maps the founder onto the BR/IR plane. Reports are anchored to the same underlying score data — narrative generation runs separately from scoring, and that distinction is structural. What you see in your feed is signal, not interpretation.
