04 · The founder side

Counterparties as users,

not email addresses.

Founders, angels and co-investors get their own product surface rather than a place in your CRM. That is what turns reporting from a favour you chase into something the other side can complete on their own time — and it is why the data arrives structured.

The founder’s own surface

A login, not a reminder email.

Founder portal

A complete surface covering their application, company profile, pitch page, periodic updates, milestones, KPI reporting, funding, feedback, advisory, scheduling and activity history.

Founder updates

Structured periodic updates with reusable templates, replacing the ad-hoc update email nobody can query later.

KPI reporting

Revenue, burn rate and the reporting period submitted through the portal, so the fund gets comparable time series instead of PDF decks — and so does the assistant.

Milestones

Tracked milestones the founder can see, which is what makes reporting a shared record rather than a one-way request.

Angels and co-investors

The syndicate half nearly every competitor ignores.

Angel portal

Co-investors get deals shared with them, an inbox, reviews, portfolio performance visibility and referrals — which is what makes this workable for an angel syndicate and not only an institutional fund.

Advisory boards

Advisory boards and applications work today. The directory behind them is deliberately cross-fund — one shared advisory register that only the platform administrator can write to, so an advisor is entered once rather than re-keyed by every fund that works with them. It is a design decision, not a gap in workspace separation: nothing about your deals, portfolio or LPs is shared with it.

Walled off

Their assistant cannot see your fund.

DSignal FounderAIEnterprise

An assistant that answers a founder’s questions about their own deal status and milestones, and is explicitly prevented from revealing other portfolio companies, fund ownership or carry economics, or the fund’s internal risk alerts.

Why the form beats the parser

A number typed into a field is a number. A number extracted from a deck is a guess with a confidence score attached, and every downstream figure inherits that guess. Giving the founder a structured form moves the effort once, to the person who already knows the answer.

What it does not do

It does not make founders report. A portal lowers the cost of reporting and makes chasing cheap; it does not replace the relationship that makes someone answer. Founder-facing AI is Enterprise-only today.

See it on your own data.

Forty minutes, a workspace shaped like your fund, and no deck. If it does not replace something you already pay for, we will say so and end early.
