“Help me build a Series A investor narrative. My company: [describe product, market, stage]. My traction: [key metrics — MRR, growth rate, customer count, NRR, notable customers]. My team: [describe]. My ask: [amount and use of funds]. The narrative should: open with the market opportunity grounded in a specific customer pain, prove the business works with specific metrics, explain why we win (not just why the market is big), and close with a specific vision for what Series A capital unlocks. Structure it as a narrative arc, not a list of slides.”

“Here is my Series A narrative: [paste your narrative or key points]. Play the role of a skeptical Series A investor who has seen 200 pitches this year. What are the 3 weakest points in this narrative? What questions would you ask that the current narrative doesn’t answer? What would make you pass — and is any of that present here? Be direct — I want the uncomfortable feedback before I’m in the room.”

“I’m building a target investor list for my Series A raise. My company: [describe product, market, stage, traction]. Help me define: (1) What type of investor is the best fit — generalist vs sector-specific, what fund size, what check size, what geography, (2) What signals would tell me an investor has a relevant thesis for my space, (3) What questions should I research about each investor before making contact, (4) How should I prioritise — who to approach first vs who to save for later in the process.”

“I want to ask [mutual connection] to introduce me to [investor name] at [firm]. My company: [one sentence]. My traction: [one specific metric]. Why this investor specifically: [one sentence on their thesis or portfolio relevance]. Write a message to the mutual connection that: explains who I want to meet and why this investor specifically, makes it easy for them to say yes and even easier to forward, and includes a forwardable note they can edit and send. Under 100 words total.”

“I’m preparing for Series A diligence. My key metrics: MRR [X], growth [Y], NRR [Z], gross margin [A], CAC payback [B], churn [C]. For each metric: (1) How does this compare to Series A benchmarks for my sector? (2) If it’s below benchmark, what’s the honest explanation and the improvement trajectory? (3) If it’s above benchmark, how do I present this credibly without overclaiming? (4) What follow-up question should I anticipate and how do I answer it? Give me a metrics narrative I can use in investor conversations.”

“I’ve had [X] customers churn in the last 12 months. Here’s what happened with each one: [brief description of each churn — company size, how long they were a customer, stated reason, your assessment of real reason]. Help me: (1) Identify the honest pattern across these churns, (2) Prepare a clear, honest explanation for investors that doesn’t minimise the issue but frames it accurately, (3) Identify what we’ve changed since these churns that makes the pattern less likely going forward, (4) Anticipate what an investor will ask next after hearing this explanation.”

“I’m planning to raise [amount] at Series A. Help me build a 12-month post-raise hiring plan. Current team: [describe size and functions]. Business goals for the 12 months post-raise: [describe revenue target, key milestones]. For each hire I should make: (1) What function does this role address? (2) What’s the sequencing — who do I hire first and why? (3) What’s the expected time-to-productivity for each role? (4) What’s the total headcount cost at the end of 12 months and does it match my runway assumptions? Flag any sequencing mistakes I might be making.”

“I’m about to start a Series A raise that will take approximately [X months]. During this period I also need to maintain [describe key company priorities — revenue target, product milestone, key hires]. Help me: (1) Design a weekly schedule that protects focused fundraising time while maintaining company leadership, (2) Identify which of my current responsibilities I need to delegate during the raise and to whom, (3) Create a simple weekly check-in structure with my team that keeps things moving without requiring my constant involvement, (4) Identify the 2-3 things that only I can do and must not be delegated.”

“Write a fundraise progress update for my existing investors. Current status: [describe where you are in the process — number of conversations, terms received, timeline expectations]. Key developments since last update: [describe]. What I need from existing investors: [specific asks — intros, references, anything else]. The tone should be confident and transparent — I want them to feel informed and useful, not worried. Under 300 words.”

“I just closed my Series A raise of [amount]. Help me plan the first 90 days. Commitments I made to investors: [list the key use-of-funds commitments and milestones]. Help me: (1) Set 3 concrete 90-day milestones that demonstrate I’m executing on what I promised, (2) Identify the single highest-leverage hire to make in month 1, (3) Design a cadence for keeping the board informed without over-communicating, (4) Identify the 2-3 things most likely to slow me down in this period and how to pre-empt them.”
