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:

  1. What's missing that would make you keep it installed?
  2. Do you find this useful at all?

I'm the founder, happy to answer anything.

I'll tell you what's sh*t about your landing page, drop a link

 Been looking at a lot of early startup sites lately and the same problem keeps showing up. Founders know exactly what they built, so they write the page for someone who already understands it.

Drop your link and I'll tell you the one thing that confused me in the first ten seconds. That's usually the thing costing you signups.

Happy to do as many as I can get through today. If you want to say what stage you're at and who it's for, that helps, but a bare link is fine too.

Anyone here doing under $1k MRR? What's your current bottleneck?

If you're building something small and paid, or nearly paid, drop what it is and what's currently limiting growth. Traffic, conversion, churn, or just not enough hours.

I'll share what I've seen work for people at the same stage where I can.

Looking for an e-bike around 1k

I’m looking for an e-bike around 1k. I want decent longevity and decent speed to get me to places like 10mi+ away. Should be street legal.

Judge said I did fantastic, scored me 51% with mostly "no value" what can I do?

Just got my ICDC score report back for Entrepreneurship role play and something feels really off. During the role play my judge looked engaged the whole time, I hit the PIs, communicated my idea clearly, created an incredibly unique idea, and at the end he literally told me I did fantastic. In my eyes it was the best role-play I had ever given. Then I check my score report and he gave me "no value" on most criteria, 51% overall, 4th percentile. Has anyone experienced something similar? Is there a formal process to request a score review or flag a discrepancy at the ICDC level? Who should I reach out to (my chapter advisor, state advisor, or DECA directly)? Any guidance would help a lot, or am I just coping (but I REALLY REALLY thought he took it well and that I delivered it excellently
