    How do matches happen?

    For founders:

    1. submit your co
    2. the tool's algorithm will match you with investors, without human intervention
    3. if a match is found and an investor requests an intro, an intro email will be sent
    4. if no matches are found or no intros are requested for your co, you won't receive any emails

    For investors:

    1. submit your investment criteria
    2. you will receive thesis-aligned deal flow once per week if you have any matches for that week
    3. if you have no matches for that week, you will not receive an email

    Is it really free?

    Always has been, always will be.
