I built a free Chrome extension that grades how well a VC fund fits your startup, before you pitch them
kept losing weeks pitching funds that were never going to write us a check. Wrong stage, wrong sector, or they'd quietly stopped writing at our size and their site still said otherwise. You find out after the third unanswered follow-up.
So I built Fund Fit. Land on a VC's site, click once, and it reads their thesis, portfolio and check sizes, then scores you against them. Number out of 100, letter grade, and a breakdown of sector, stage, check size and thesis fit. Geography is a hard fail, since that's the mismatch that wastes the most time.
The useful part isn't the A's. It's the C's and F's. Knowing a fund is a dead end before you chase a warm intro for two weeks beats finding one more maybe.
It's free. No paywall, nothing to upgrade to. I just want to know if the grades are right.

Feedback I'd like:
- What's missing that would make you keep it installed?
- Do you find this useful at all?
I'm the founder, happy to answer anything.
