Caladan helped me connect with 12 VCs in my first month. The AI copilot found investors who actually fit my stage and industry - no more spray and pray. It's like having an experienced fundraiser guiding every step.
This looks interesting, we might use it at @Proqube

Looks interesting! Does the app create the personalized pitch for every VC you contact via it?
The website appears to be for a completely different product than what this launch describes:
What's going on here, has there been a mid-day switcheroo in the landing page? Or how has this made it to #3..?
The "no more spray and pray" line hits home - we've watched too many founders burn their reputation with generic outreach to mismatched investors.
12 VCs in month one is solid progress. What's interesting is the stage/industry matching. We're seeing a lot of AI tools claim they can do investor matching, but most just keyword match without understanding nuanced investment thesis.
How does Caladan's AI actually parse investor preferences beyond the obvious sector tags? Most VCs we've encountered have unwritten criteria that don't show up in their public materials - geographic preferences, specific revenue ranges, team composition biases.
The founder profile feature sounds practical for consistent messaging across different conversations.
I will try！
Congrats on the launch , I’m curious — do you think Caladan could also be effective for founders in the EdTech AI space? I’m preparing to raise for a new AI project that I believe could be truly revolutionary in education, and tools like this seem really valuable for connecting with the right investors.
Literally nothing to do with what it claims; you go to the website and I quote: "We build custom AI solutions for ambitious businesses at startup speed. Strategy, development, and implementation - tailored for your workflows." These releases are rigged.
this is great, alot of founders struggle not just finding money, but finding the correct investor -> product fit
Looks awesome! Love the specialization on fundraising. Looking forward to testing it out.
This is brilliant! The idea of having an AI, powered tool to connect startups with over 5,000 VCs is really impressive. I can't help but wonder how the AI, powered matching works. Does it take into account the specific needs of both the startups and the investors?
I've seen so many discussions about how tough it is for founders to find the right investors who really understand their industry. It sounds like Caladan is stepping in at just the right time to help with that struggle.
If you're looking to connect with more startup founders or entrepreneurs, I know some great communities that would totally benefit from what you're building. Engaging with those discussions could really get the word out since so many people could use this kind of support.
I'm really looking forward to seeing this product. This feature is something that startups really need. It's really hard to apply for and manage applications on your own.
Good job!
My initial feeling was one of excitement. But then I got to the homepage and was absolutely mystified. Where is the connection between the promise and reality? I have no idea how to find VCs!
