FOR FOUNDERS & BUSINESS OWNERS
Find investors for your startup, without the guesswork
Raising capital usually starts with weeks of startup fundraising research: scraping databases, skimming portfolio pages, and guessing which investors might care. Conceptor replaces that with Florence, an AI agent that searches 25M+ companies and investors and tells you exactly why each one fits your company.
Describe your business in plain language and get back a focused investor list: venture capital firms whose thesis matches, growth and private equity investors for later stages, and strategic investors who bring value beyond capital.
A focused starting point
Instead of a thousand names from a database export, get a ranked list of investors who are actually likely to take the meeting.
Investors you would have missed
Florence surfaces firms and strategics outside your network and outside the obvious portfolio-page candidates.
Reasoning you can use in outreach
Every match explains why the investor fits, which doubles as the first line of your outreach email.
How founders use Conceptor for fundraising research
- Describe your company. What you do, who you serve, your stage, and what you want from investors, in the same words you would use with a friend.
- Florence maps your investor universe. It searches Conceptor's proprietary dataset plus general and third-party intelligence to find investors whose focus lines up with your business.
- Review a ranked, reasoned list. See why each investor fits: thesis match, portfolio adjacency, strategic angle, or all three.
- Start outreach with confidence. Export your list and work through it knowing every name earned its place.
More than a venture capital investor search
“Find investors for my company” means something different for every founder. A pre-seed startup needs angels and early-stage venture capital. A profitable business owner exploring a partial sale needs private equity. A scaling company might want a strategic investor who opens doors to customers or channels.
Conceptor covers all of it from one search. Because Florence reasons about fit rather than filtering on tags, the same platform that helps bankers find buyers and acquisition targets helps founders find the investors most likely to say yes.
And when the time comes to think about an exit, the same tool shows you which strategic buyers could be a logical fit and how that landscape changes as your business grows.
Founder fundraising FAQs
Do I need a banker or advisor to use Conceptor?
No. The Individual plan is self-serve and built for founders and professionals alike. Sign up, describe your company, and your first 3 searches are free.
Will my company's information stay confidential?
Yes. We never train on your data or send it to models that do. Many founders also use a project alias while researching, and Conceptor works just as well that way.
Can Conceptor find strategic investors, not just VCs?
Yes. Because Conceptor's dataset spans 25M+ companies and investors, Florence can surface corporates and strategics whose business would benefit from yours, alongside traditional funds.
What if I am thinking about selling instead of raising?
The same search works for buyers. Founders use Conceptor to understand which strategic buyers could be a logical fit for their company, long before they are actively in a process.
