Take the meeting

Cluster first meetings into a tight 2–3 week window so interest compounds into competition (FOMO). Walk-in prepared. Know the partner, their portfolio, fund size, focus area, and check size.

Model the round

Set the raise against the dilution you can live with. Most seed rounds sell 15–25%. Model SAFEs, the option pool and pro-forma ownership before you commit to a number.

Build a forecast

Investors expect defensible assumptions, not certainty. Start with the metrics you do know, and build the forecast on top. Be ready to justify every number.

An investor-relationship hub.

A clean way to send investor updates, share decks and data rooms, run a fundraising pipeline and track metrics on dashboards. Genuinely good at keeping investors informed. But it stops at the relationship layer, no cap table, no bookings, no warm-intro CRM, no forward forecast, and no AI that acts across the whole raise.

Investor relations · part of the raise

A fundraising operating system.

The full fundraising stack, investor CRM with warm intros, pitch deck, bookings, data room, cap table, a driver-based forecast for the early stage, updates, with Ask Arx reasoning across all of it, on the platform and inside Claude. Built end-to-end for the early-stage raise.

Built for the raise
Warm intros

Rounds close on warm intros,
not cold lists.

Early round is rarely won by cold outreach. It moves through warm introductions, an advisor, an angel, a founder who knows the partner. Arx is built around that. The fundraise runs on your social capital, and you own it. Arx just gives you the tools to organize it and turn it into the next concrete step.

Ask Arx

One AI, across every tool.

Visible's AI lives on the investor side. Ask Arx works for the founder, and because it sits on top of the whole workspace, it reads and acts across all your tools. Use it on the platform, or connect it to Claude and run your raise from there.

Reply to Sasha, a friendly nudge with the updated forecast.

Pulls thread context from Gmail, attaches the right file. You approve before send.

Takeaway

Fundraise can't have visible gaps.

Visible was originally built just for the monthly updates, and later expanded to include data rooms, pitch decks, dashboards and pipelines.

But closing a round takes more than that. You still need a cap table, a warm-intro CRM, bookings, a forecast, and an AI that understands your workspace end-to-end. That's the whole stack, and it's what Arx is.
