This will take longer than you think. So will fundraising.

We ask what investors will ask, in the order they will ask it. Most founders cannot answer all of it on the first attempt, and that is exactly what we are trying to find out.

6short steps, one at a time
50+questions, some will be uncomfortable
10 to 15minutes if your numbers are to hand
Keep these open in another tab

Your pitch deck link, financial model, cap table, last twelve months of revenue and burn, and your company filings status. Your progress is saved in this browser tab while you work.

Start with you.

Investors back people first. Tell us who is raising and how to reach you.

Investors will look you up. So will we.
Are you the person who will lead this raise? *

The company.

Basics first. Be precise, as these answers get checked later.

If you cannot say it simply, investors will not repeat it for you.
Where are you today? *
Are all founders full-time? *

Traction and money.

Numbers, not adjectives. Use rounded figures if you must, but do not guess.

If your answer is "none", that is itself a red flag to investors.

History and ownership.

Cap table and legal hygiene are where deals quietly die. Answer plainly.

Is an ESOP pool created and documented? *
Any convertibles, SAFEs or promised equity outstanding? *
Any disputes, notices or unresolved legal issues, including with ex-founders or employees? *

The raise itself.

Specifics, please. Vague asks are the easiest to decline.

Do you have a valuation view? *
Investors will ask for this in the first meeting.
How much is already committed? *
Do you have a lead investor in sight? *
Who are you targeting?

Your materials and your ask of us.

Share links, not files. Make sure each link opens for anyone who has it. We will not ask you to email documents.

Google Drive, Dropbox, DocSend, Notion or similar. Set to "anyone with the link can view".
Tick only what is genuinely in place today
What do you want from Jaush?

Never share passwords, OTPs, bank logins or Aadhaar/PAN. Use view-only links for documents.
