What’s inside

Four jobs, one pipeline

From the first source to the first meeting, and every company you keep watching after.

01 · Sourcing

Run your origination motion, faster

Point Kruncher agents at the sources you already trust and let them work against your thesis. Scan top accelerators, search companies and people, and turn a conference list into a ranked shortlist. You define where to look; the grind disappears.

  • Scan top accelerators against your thesis
  • Search companies and search people
  • Turn a conference list into a shortlist

This runs the origination motion against the sources and thesis you define. It is not a promise to discover the whole market for you.

02 · Screening

Decide in minutes what is worth a closer look

Connect your deal inbox and every company is analyzed and scored the way you would score it. Kruncher checks your mandate and your thesis, then returns a clear match or no-match with a deal score, in a standardized report so companies are actually comparable.

03 · Outreach & First-Meeting Prep

Walk in ready to win the right to invest

Approach a founder with a warm, credible first touch. Kruncher finds the founder’s email, shows who on your team already knows them, and drafts an opener framed around how you can help. Then it hands you the talking points and the questions worth asking before you sit down.

  • Find the founder or CEO email
  • See who on your team is connected (Connection Capture)
  • Auto-drafted opener, talking points, and a short deck

04 · Watchlist

Keep the companies you care about under watch

Turn a static list into a live one. Set a re-analysis cadence and Kruncher re-scores each company on schedule, flags growing versus declining status, and alerts you the moment something moves, so a company you passed on early stays on your radar when it turns.

  • From a static list to a live list
  • Re-analysis on the cadence you set
  • Growing vs. declining status, with email alerts
