Investor Fit Checker
Score whether a specific fund is worth your time across stage, check, thesis, lead behaviour and warm path.
Your fit score will appear here
The form starts with editable example values. Check the fit as-is, or enter the fund you are evaluating first.
Investor fit is more than sector tags.
A fund can invest in your space and still be wrong for you: too late-stage, too small a check, unable to lead, or conflicted.
Stage and check fit
The single biggest filter. A seed fund writing small checks cannot lead a large Series A-style raise.
Thesis fit
Core thesis means they are hunting for you. Adjacent means you will spend the meeting educating.
Path and timing
A strong intro and an actively deploying fund turn a maybe into a meeting.
How the fit score is built
Eight weighted dimensions, each scored from your inputs, combine into a single 0-100 read.
Stage, check size and thesis carry the most weight because they are the hardest constraints to overcome.
Where confidence is blocked, the tool tells you what to research instead of pretending certainty.
Common false positives
They invested in a company like mine
That can mean thesis fit, or it can mean an active conflict. Check before you pitch.
Big fund, small check for you
A famous multi-stage fund may only follow at your stage. Name recognition is not lead capacity.
Warm intro to the wrong partner
An intro to someone outside your sector can burn the connection. Fit is person-level too.

Questions founders ask
What does investor fit mean?
Investor fit combines stage, check size, thesis, geography, lead behaviour, recent activity, conflicts, and whether you have a realistic path in.
Can a famous fund still be a bad fit?
Yes. If they do not lead at your stage, write the wrong check size, or already have a close competitor, they may waste scarce fundraising time.
