Re: Deck attached

Thanks for thinking of us. Unfortunately, it's not a fit for our current thesis. Wishing you the best.

The real reasons behind every rejection

1

VCs don't reject ideas — they reject lack of proof

2

Founders pitch too early without knowing what investors expect

3

Every VC asks different questions, wasting months of time

4

No clear benchmark for "VC-ready"

What Scouty Actually Does

Scouty evaluates your startup the same way real investors do — based on your stage.

Pre-Revenue

If you don't have revenue yet

Scouty helps you prove fundability using real signals — not assumptions.

Converts early traction into VC-grade signals

Scouty reads usage, pilots, waitlists, and engagement patterns to show investor-worthy momentum — without requiring revenue.

Identifies what investors will question before they do

The engine surfaces gaps in ICP clarity, GTM logic, and founder-market fit so you fix them before pitching.

Tells you what to focus on next to become fundable

You get a clear signal roadmap — what to build, measure, and validate to unlock your next funding stage.

No revenue required. Built for first-time and early founders.

Revenue Stage

If you're already generating revenue

Scouty evaluates the quality of your business — not just the topline.

Breaks down revenue quality the way VCs do

Scouty analyzes retention, repeat usage, and payment behavior to show whether your revenue is investable or fragile.

Flags hidden risks in growth and unit economics

The engine detects churn risk, concentration issues, and weak growth mechanics before they appear in the data room.

Tells you which round you're actually ready for

You'll know if you're Seed-ready, Series A-ready, or not yet — with clear reasons why.

Built for startups moving from traction to scale.

One Engine. Two Evaluation Modes.

Scouty automatically adapts its fundability framework based on your startup stage — so founders are measured fairly and accurately.

10 minutes. Zero guesswork.
