Getting investor inbound

Receive inbound requests from investors via OpenVC

“Inbound” means that the investor reaches out to you, instead of you reaching out to them. Obviously, inbound is the dream 😃

Here's how it works on OpenVC.

1. Get listed on OpenVC Flow

First, complete complete your Fundability test. Within 24 hours, your startup automatically gets added to our anonymized deal flow page.

(If you don't want to get listed, just email us at [email protected])

2. Be found by investors

OpenVC Flow allows investors to browse startups based on anonymized data points (geography, stage, traction, etc) and send you a request to connect. Your company name and team is never displayed, preserving your privacy.

Here's what an investor sees in the deal list:

3. Receive an investor request

Investor requests appear in your OpenVC Dashboard, as shown below.

You can accept the request and start a conversation, or ignore it and remain anonymous. That way, you're always in control.
