Your First Raise Shouldn't Feel Like Guesswork
OmniVC helps early-stage founders find the right investors, so you can focus on building.
Most first-time founders spend 3–6 months fundraising. Here's why.
There are thousands of VCs, angels, and funds. Most don't publicly share what stage they invest at, what sectors they like, or what check sizes they write. You're searching blind.
Most first-time founders don't know if they're ready to raise. Our AI evaluates your pitch deck and tells you where you stand — before you reach out to investors.
Even when you find a VC, how do you know they're right? Do they invest at your stage? In your sector? At your geography? Most founders learn this the hard way — after months of wrong conversations.
Three steps. No spreadsheets.
Drop in your deck or just describe your startup in a few sentences. Our AI extracts your stage, sector, traction, team, and what you're raising.
Our AI searches across our investor network and scores each VC on how well they fit your startup — stage, sector, check size, geography, and investment thesis.
Get a ranked list of investors with detailed reports explaining exactly why each one is a fit. No guesswork — just clear reasons.
We don't just give you a name. We explain why.
Does this VC invest at pre-seed? What's their typical check size? We score the fit so you don't have to guess.
We match your market to the investor's thesis and portfolio. If they've backed companies like yours before, you'll know.
Every match includes a written explanation of why this investor suits your startup. Read it before you reach out.
Ask your own questions about investors: "Do they lead rounds?" "Have they invested in health tech?" Get AI-powered answers.
AI-powered matching. Human decisions.
Your first 3 investor matches are free.
From pre-seed funds to growth-stage firms. Here are some of the investors in our database.
