Decisions should rest on evidence you can trace
Small teams rebuild every pitch's history by hand. We are building one record where each claim is traced to its source and people make the call.
Two problems, one fix
Analysts rebuild every pitch by hand
At a lean pre-seed or seed fund, a founder's story arrives in pieces: an application form, a deck, a few emails, a call, a shared folder. Before a first review, an analyst pieces it back together, and does it again for the next deal. The time goes into reconstruction, not judgement.
Partners can't see what was checked
By the partner meeting, a deal is a summary. Which numbers came from the founder, which were confirmed by a document, and which changed between the deck and the call is hard to tell. Founders, meanwhile, answer the same questions again for every new person on the deal.
What we are building instead
One deal record per company. Founders apply on the fund's branded portal, Delsivo reads the deck with slide citations, checks it against the fund's own thesis, and keeps every claim with its sources and label. Requests, files and decisions live in the same place, so anyone can trace a claim from its first appearance to the decision. See how it works.
What we won't compromise on
Evidence first
Every finding cites where it came from: the deck slide, the interview timestamp, the form answer or the document page. A quote that can't be found in its source is dropped, not shown.
People decide
AI extracts, applies your rubric and drafts. People move every deal, pass with a reason, approve every message to a founder and can override any assessment, with the reason recorded.
Fair to founders
Interviews are assessed on substance and evidence, never accent, fluency, polish, appearance or background. The AI assesses only the transcript, never the video, a text interview sits under the same rubric, and founders can correct what was extracted.
Unknown is not a fail
A missing value stays Unknown and becomes a question. A mismatch is surfaced for a person to review, never an automatic rejection. We don't call any score objective.
The fund controls founder data
Founders apply to the fund, not to us. The fund is the controller, Delsivo processes data on its behalf, and each fund's data is kept apart from every other fund's.
No fake proof
We don't show invented customers, logos, quotes or results. When pilots produce real measurements, we will publish them with the funds' permission.
Early, and honest about it
Delsivo is in design partner pilots with venture funds. Features are described as designed, with the release they arrive in. We set up each design partner pilot by hand, measure it against the fund's current process, and improve the product before opening it wider.
- Pilot
Branded intake, PDF deck analysis, thesis screening, the analyst queue, the claim tracker, basic follow-up forms and scoped file requests.
- First release
Live AI founder interviews with a text alternative, versioned custom forms, data rooms with permissions and activity, cited research, call preparation and custom domains.
- After first release
One Delsivo founder account for every fund's portal, a fundraising CRM for founders where Delsivo applications appear with live status, and a public fund directory.
- Later
Investment committee workflow, email and CRM integrations, the thesis sandbox, relationship intelligence, portfolio handoff and enterprise controls.
