A full Vintane fundability report — before you pay
This is exactly what lands in your inbox: the final score, an executive summary of how investors read you, all five silent judgments named, and five ranked fixes. Below is a complete example for an anonymized B2B SaaS company — a realistic, fully anonymized seed raise — so you can see the paid value before spending a dollar.
“Strong team and a real wedge, but partners can't verify the traction you're claiming.”
Executive summary
Investors like the founders and the category, but the raise reads as under-evidenced. The traction slide asserts momentum it never shows; core metrics are defined differently across your updates; and the market build won't survive a single analyst question. None of these are fatal — they're proof problems, not idea problems — and tightening the evidence turns this into a fundable story. Right now a busy partner would put it in the "nice team, come back with numbers" pile.
The 5 silent judgments — named
These are the deductions a partner makes in their head while skimming — the ones that almost never make it into the “pass” email. Ordered worst first.
Your deck says "great momentum" and your updates say "another strong month," but neither puts a chart behind it. Partners read an unquantified traction slide as a number you'd rather not show — so they assume the worst.
MRR, active teams, and qualified pipeline are each defined differently in three of your last ten updates. When the same metric moves definition, investors can't tell if you're growing or just re-framing — and inconsistency reads as either sloppiness or spin.
The $40B TAM is top-down and unattributed. The first diligence question — "how did you get to $40B?" — collapses it, and you have no bottom-up build (accounts × ACV × attach) to fall back on. A number that can't be defended is worse than a smaller one that can.
The wedge moved from "teams" to "mid-market" to "enterprise" across your last five updates. A partner who reads the deck and the updates side by side can't tell what you actually are — and a moving target is hard to underwrite.
You're raising for 24 months of runway, but the milestone list only covers the first 9. The math makes the round look padded, and it invites the question you least want: "what are you doing with the other 15 months of money?"
5 ranked fixes
Each judgment maps to one concrete fix — a rewrite or reframe you can apply to your deck and updates today. Ordered by impact.
Replace "strong growth" with your real month-over-month growth rate and a six-month chart of paying teams. One verifiable line beats three adjectives — and it disarms the "what are they hiding" reflex before it fires.
Define MRR, "active team," and "qualified pipeline" once, in writing, then use those exact definitions in the deck and in every founder update going forward. Consistency is the cheapest credibility you can buy.
Show target accounts × average contract value × realistic attach rate. Keep the $40B as a top-down ceiling in the appendix, not the headline — lead with the defensible number you can walk a partner through.
Pick the segment your last two closed deals came from and write a single "who we're for" sentence. Repeat it verbatim in the deck, the updates, and the intro email. Stop letting the positioning move between sends.
Either extend the milestone list to cover all 24 months of runway, or trim the raise to match the 9-month plan you can actually defend. The ask and the plan have to tell the same story.
