Evalyze is AI that runs your fundraising for pre-seed to Series A founders: readiness scoring, deck review, investor matching, and outreach you approve.

Evalyze is AI that runs your fundraising, built for startup founders raising pre-seed to Series A.
We built Evalyze to bring the parts of a raise into one place, so you aren't rebuilding the process across spreadsheets, investor databases, and your inbox.
Our AI fundraising agent, Eva, scores how ready your startup is to raise, reviews your pitch deck slide by slide, ranks investors by fit from 20,000+ verified investors, and drafts personalized outreach that you approve and send from your own Gmail.
If you'd rather have a team run the raise with you, that's what Managed Fundraising is for.

Evalyze connects the steps of a founder-led raise in one workspace:
You can start wherever you are in your raise. If your deck is ready, go straight to investor matching. If you already have a list, move to outreach. And if you want our team to run these steps with you, take a look at Managed Fundraising.
Startup Analyzer scores your startup across six areas, compares each one against startups at your stage, and shows you what to fix before outreach.

You get an Investor Readiness Score from 350 to 850, covering team, traction, problem-solution fit, competitive advantage, market opportunity, and scalability and unit economics. It helps you see how an investor might read your business before you send your first email.
The free Starter plan includes 3 Startup Analyzer reports each month with a basic score. Evalyze Pro includes 15 each month, with an advanced score and benchmarks.
Get a 0-100 Deck Score with slide-by-slide feedback on your story, structure, missing slides, and visual hierarchy.

AI Pitch Coach looks at your deck itself, separately from the business behind it. Your report includes an Investor Perspective section on the questions your deck may raise, along with slide-level recommendations you can act on. AI Pitch Coach is included in Evalyze Pro and is not part of the Starter plan.
