InvestorFinder

This basically exposes what VCs actually do vs what they claim. Most say they're thesis-driven but the data shows clear patterns toward certain founder types. Anyone pushed back on this kind of categorization?

Really useful timing — we're building Faindo and plan to raise soon, so the "wrong investor" problem is something we're already thinking about.One question: do you factor in whether an investor has backed tools in emerging categories before? We're in AI lead interception — a category that barely existed 18 months ago. Curious if InvestorFinder surfaces partners who have a pattern of backing category-creating products vs. established markets.

This is super useful for solo founders like me. As someone building FinTrackrr (a free personal finance tracker), finding the right investors who've backed similar bootstrapped fintech tools has always been a pain. The idea of matching based on actual portfolio patterns rather than just categories is smart. Great execution!

interesting tool for both founders and investors... will you add PM function in future?

Love the concept! How do you source the VC data — is it manual curation, public APIs, or scraping? And do you cover European/Asian investors or US-focused?

Some VCs publish why they invested in a company in their blogs and others appear to actively promote their portfolio companies on LinkedIn and Twitter.

Do you scan for all these for signals?

This is actually useful. Things like background, past companies, and even patterns in who partners tend to back matter a lot more than people think.

Congrats on the launch 🙌 This is the kind of tool I actually need right now as I am looking for early-stage investors. When I sign up, how does it figure out which investors are the right match for me?

Cool concept (already found my potential matches) :D+ I must say that the design of the page is composed pretty well!
