VC Readiness Score

A free scorecard tool from The VC Lens that grades a startup across the eight criteria VC partners actually weigh at investment committee (IC) meetings, color-coding weak spots and flagging the top three fixes before your next investor conversation.

How it works

You answer a short set of questions about your round stage and company; the tool is free to use, though an email is required to unlock the final report.

Who it's for

Founders who want an honest, structured gut-check on fundraising readiness before they start pitching, instead of guessing what investors are actually evaluating.
