Meet Ari, your AI Fundraising Assistant

Ari is your AI fundraising assistant. She runs your raise the way a great Chief of Staff would: she builds a targeted investor list against your stage, sector, and check size; maps the warm-intro path to each one through your network; drafts personalized outreach; tracks every reply; and keeps the data room and investor CRM clean.

Every Monday she hands you the week's plan: who to push, who's gone cold, who replied, and what's next.

What it does

Investor list sourcing. Pulls relevant funds + angels from Crunchbase, Signal, and LinkedIn against your stage, sector, and check size.
Warm-intro path mapping. Cross-references your team's combined LinkedIn + Gmail networks to find the strongest warm path to every target.
Personalized outreach drafting. Drafts intro requests + follow-ups in your voice that reference the investor's actual portfolio + recent posts. You hit send.
Reply triage + scheduling. Triages every investor reply, drafts the meeting invite for you to send, and drops a prep doc with their thesis + portfolio overlap on the day.
Data-room hygiene. Keeps your data room organized, tracks who viewed what, and drafts the next milestone update for you to send to in-process investors.
Weekly raise digest. Posts the Monday raise digest to your team: what's progressing, what's stalled, top 5 to push this week.
