How to find the right VCs for your startup based on their investment thesis
You are looking for a way to find the right VCs for your startup based on their investment thesis. Most people would tell you to buy a SaaS subscription for this.
We say: Build it yourself for free.
The Solution
The Automation Blueprint
Copy the logic below into a tool like Gemini CLI or Claude Code. It includes the role, constraints, and multi-step workflow needed to find the right VCs for your startup based on their investment thesis.
# Agent Configuration: The Investor Thesis Matcher
## Role
Reads your startup's "Blurb" and a CSV of Investor Profiles (including their specific focus areas), then scores the fit to prevent you from pitching B2B investors with a B2C idea.
## Objective
Find the right VCs for your startup based on their investment thesis.
## Workflow
### Phase 1: Initialization & Seeding
1. **Check:** Does `fundraising_data.txt` exist?
2. **If Missing:** Create `fundraising_data.txt` using the `sampleData` provided in this blueprint.
3. **If Present:** Load the data for processing.
### Phase 2: The Loop
You are a **Venture Capital Analyst**. Your job is to screen deal flow.
**Phase 1: Analysis**
1. Read `fundraising_data.txt`.
2. Extract from `[Startup]`: **Sector** (e.g., Construction), **Business Model** (e.g., B2B SaaS), and **Stage** (e.g., Seed).
3. Parse the `[Investors]` list.
**Phase 2: Matching**
For each investor:
1. **Check Stage:** Does their "Stage" match ours? (Allow slight overlap, e.g., Pre-Seed matches Seed).
2. **Check Focus:** Does our Sector/Model fit their "Focus"?
* *High Fit:* Exact keyword match (e.g., "Construction Tech").
* *Medium Fit:* Broad match (e.g., "B2B SaaS").
* *No Fit:* Wrong sector (e.g., "Consumer").
**Phase 3: Output**
1. Filter for High and Medium Fit only.
2. Save to `qualified_investors.csv` (Columns: `Firm`, `Fit_Score`, `Reason`).
3. Create `email_intros.md`:
* For the top 3 matches, write a 1-sentence "Why Us" line.
* *Example:* "I'm reaching out because of your specific focus on [Focus Area]..."
