Free to score · serious raises from $199/mo

Investors read 40 decks to fund one. Founders used to sharpen their pitch by taking those rejections — spending their best investors as practice.

Verdict™ scores your raise in 60 seconds — so your first pitch is your best pitch, not your fortieth.

Who Verdict™ is for

You’re building from first dollar to $100M ARR — and you want to raise on merit, not your address book.

Score in 60 seconds, get matched to investors whose mandate you actually fit, and reach the raise faster — built in minutes, no warm intro required.

The real problem
1 : 100
Reply rate on a cold investor email — industry norm

You’re not losing on the idea.
You’re losing on the read.

Investors pass in seconds on three things they can’t verify fast enough — your story, your stage, your team. Fix the read, and the raise follows.

Every platform that sends emails for you has sent one you didn’t write, to someone you didn’t approve, with a name that was wrong. Verdict™ doesn’t send emails for you. It makes sure the right investors find you.

Story
You pitch into the void.

Investors pass and never tell you which slide lost the round. You rewrite the whole deck guessing — and pitch into the same silence.

Stage
Your traction reads like a claim.

Your $30K MRR looks identical to the founder who typed it into a spreadsheet. Nobody believes the number, so nobody leans in.

Team
You don’t get the benefit of the doubt.

No logos, no warm intros — so the round goes to someone better-connected, not better. Your execution never gets read.

The fix
Three scores fix the read.

Story, stage, and team — the three things investors verify, built by you in minutes.

Where you stand
Story
PitchScore™

Does your pitch hold up? Scored across 12 investor dimensions in 60 seconds — a fix list, not a rating.

12 dimensions, stage-weighted. Each maps to a fix heuristic — you know exactly which slide lost the round, and exactly what to rewrite.

PathProven™

Is your revenue real? MRR pulled live from your payment processor — verified from source, not your deck.

Revenue straight from your processor, not your deck. Investors see the verified number — the one they actually believe.

Team
VerdictStar™

Can your team go the distance? DRIVE™ read against your LinkedIn track record, benchmarked to founders who reached a $100M exit.

DRIVE™ reads your entrepreneurial potential. Your LinkedIn track record provides the evidence. Together they answer the question every investor asks: can this team go all the way?

Meet VerdictStar™ →

Close the gaps and the number climbs. Your ODDS Score™ is a two-sided read — the case for you reaching $100M, and the case against — so you meet the case against yourself, before an investor makes it for you.

The only risk

PitchScore™ is free. No card. No account required. If it tells you nothing you can act on, you’ve lost 60 seconds. That’s it.

Before you start

Sixty seconds from the founder.

Siong Yoong has been inside M&A advisory and two venture funds since 2007, watching capital and founders miss each other by inches. Here's why he built Verdict™ — and what it changes for you.

Scored. Believed. Funded.

“PitchScore™ told me my Moat section was weak — I had no idea. Fixed it, re-scored 68 to 81, and closed our seed six weeks later. The diagnosis was worth more than the intro.”

“The PathProven MRR™ badge changed every conversation. Verified revenue instead of a spreadsheet — investors stopped doubting the number and started asking how fast we’d grow.”

“My network was thin, so I never got the benefit of the doubt. VerdictStar™ put my DRIVE™ and track record in front of investors as evidence — I got backed on merit, not connections.”

Straight answers

Questions founders ask.

Are you going to scrape my LinkedIn or sell my data?

Your data isn't the product — your fundability is. Verdict™ never scrapes LinkedIn; you export your own profile PDF and upload it, and your deck and revenue connect read-only. Nothing reaches an investor you didn't choose to be matched with.

What stops an investor from copying my idea instead of funding it?

Your wedge stays yours. Investors see your proof — verified traction, stage and score — never your playbook; your customers, your insight and your data room stay locked until you approve the reveal. Access is identity- and accreditation-verified, costs the investor credits, and is watermarked and access-logged — and we flag the tourists whose browsing never turns into cheques. You decide who crosses the line, and you can block a fund outright. In practice execution and traction are the real moat, which is exactly what Verdict™ verifies.

Won't I just disappear into another directory?

Directories make you searchable and leave you waiting. Verdict™ scores you, then puts you in front of the investors whose mandate you actually fit — you're matched, not filed. Get found on merit, not on whether someone thought to look you up.

If I'm early, does the score just gatekeep me out?

The score isn't a gate — it's a map. PitchScore™ shows you exactly which of 12 dimensions to fix, and pre-revenue you're measured on PathProven Reach™ (audience and distribution), not revenue you don't have yet. You improve the score and climb; you're never locked out for being early.

What does it cost — and do I give up equity?

Verdict™ never takes equity for using the platform — unlike an accelerator or venture studio, it never sits on your cap table. The equity you give goes to the investors who fund your round, on terms you negotiate; Verdict™ doesn't add to it. Getting scored and found is free; paid monthly plans unlock more matches, intros, and the full Verdict Insight™ coaching suite. Verdict™ earns a 4% success fee — capped at $500,000 per transaction — on closes sourced through the platform, paid by founders. Investors pay nothing to source a deal. A subscription plus a success fee, never a slice of your company for using the platform.

Isn't this just Crunchbase or AngelList?

Those list companies and leave investors to sort the volume. Verdict™ verifies your numbers and matches you to the mandate you fit — signal, not a bigger haystack. The difference is who does the work: you get matched instead of hoping to be found.

Why would an investor trust an algorithm's read of me?

Because it's built on what they can't fake and you can prove. PitchScore™ scores your pitch on 12 falsifiable dimensions and PathProven MRR™ verifies revenue straight from your processor. Verified beats asserted — the score works for the honest founder, not against you.

When I close a round, is the money safe?

You're never out of pocket. Verdict™ earns a 4% success fee — capped at $500,000 per transaction — on closes sourced through the platform, paid by founders. Investors pay nothing to source a deal. It applies only when a round closes through Verdict™, collected after the capital lands — via segregated escrow, never before. No close, no fee.
