What’s your fundability score?

Before a partner ever replies, they’ve already scored you. Your fundability score is that silent number — how ready your raise really is. Vintane reads your investor deck and your last 10 founder updates on the exact rubric a partner uses, and returns your score plus the 5 fixes they silently judge you on. Free, in about 30 seconds.

Score, grade, scorecard, readiness — one number, every name

Founders ask this in a dozen ways: grade my pitch deck, is my startup fundable, what’s my investor readiness, run me a scorecard. They’re all after the same thing — an honest read on whether a partner would take the second meeting. Vintane answers it with one score you can act on.

• A grade, not a vibe.Your deck scored against the exact rubric partners run, so “grade my pitch deck” gets a real number instead of a friend’s thumbs-up.
• A dimension-by-dimension scorecard. Clarity, traction, market, wedge, and the ask each scored — plus whether your founder updates back up the story.
• An investor-readiness read.Whether you’re ready to send now, or which deductions to fix first — the same question an investor-readiness assessment answers, in about 30 seconds.
• Is your startup fundable? Your score maps directly to the reasons investors pass — so you see the fundability gap before a partner does.

What a fundability score actually measures

Your fundability score isn’t a design grade or a slide count. It’s a read on the one thing that decides your raise: would a partner take the second meeting? A useful score grades the substance investors weigh — the story, the traction, the wedge, the ask — not whether your fonts line up. That is the number this page is about, and it’s the number that’s already being assigned to you every time you hit send.

How Vintane scores your fundability

Vintane doesn’t just skim your slides. It runs the same rubric a partner runs in their head, across two things at once: your investor deck and your last 10 founder updates. The deck is the pitch; the updates are the evidence you can actually execute. Investors read both — and they notice when the narrative in the deck isn’t backed up by what you’ve actually shipped. In about 30 seconds you get a scored fundability read and the specific deductions dragging your number down. Not sure your deck is even ready for that read yet? Start with is my pitch deck good enough.

The five dimensions behind your score

A score is only worth acting on if you know what produced it. Vintane grades the five dimensions partners weigh in the first ninety seconds, then checks whether your founder updates support the story your deck tells.

These are the same dimensions a partner weighs in the first ninety seconds of a pre-seed or seed deck.

Why your score is silent until now

The reason a fundability score is worth getting is that investors never tell you yours. They pass politely, or they simply don’t reply, and you’re left guessing which of a dozen things went wrong. Rebuilding the slides or hiring a designer fixes the polish, not the score. If you’ve already been passed on and don’t know why, your score maps directly to why investors passed on your pitch deck.

What’s free vs. what’s $49

The scored read is genuinely free. The optional full report — a one-time $49, no subscription — is for founders who want the complete write-up:

• Free: your fundability score, a plain-English verdict, and the single biggest thing investors would silently judge — in about 30 seconds.
• $49 full report: all five silent judgments detailed against your actual deck and updates, five ranked fixes with concrete rewrites, and a downloadable PDF to keep.
• No lock-in:one-time $49, no subscription, and it’s refundable if it isn’t worth acting on.

Is a fundability score worth it?

It’s worth it when it grades your raise against the rubric investors actually use — and useless when it just measures formatting. Vintane’s read tells you your number, the five fixes that move it, and whether your deck and updates tell the same story, all before you pay a cent. That’s the fastest way to know whether you’re ready to send. Want to know what partners are grading in the first place?

Frequently asked questions

What is a fundability score? A fundability score is a single number that tells you how ready your startup is to raise, graded on the dimensions investors actually weigh — clarity, traction, market, wedge, and the ask. Vintane scores your investor deck AND your last 10 founder updates against the exact rubric VCs use, then names the 5 fixes they silently judge you on, in about 30 seconds.

How is my fundability score calculated? Vintane grades the five dimensions a partner scans in the first ninety seconds — clarity, traction, market, wedge, and the ask — and cross-checks whether your founder updates back up the story your deck tells. It names the specific deductions dragging your number down, so the score is something you can act on rather than a vague grade.

Is the fundability score free? Yes. Your scored fundability read is free — you get your score and the single biggest thing investors would silently judge in about 30 seconds, before paying anything.

What counts as a good fundability score? A strong score means a partner can understand what you do and why now in under two minutes, your traction is shown honestly, your market is fund-returning, your ask is explicit, and your deck and founder updates tell the same story. Vintane shows you where you land on each of those and exactly what to fix to raise your number.
