How ready isyour raise?

Pick your capital engine (venture, buyout, credit, real estate or infrastructure), then answer twelve questions. You get a score out of 100 and the one thing to fix first.

Capital Readiness Scorecard

Answer honestly. Nobody sees this but you unless you ask for the full report.

STEP 01 · WHAT YOU ARE RAISING

What kind of capital are you raising?

The scorecard adapts to your capital engine, so an infrastructure project is assessed on planning, consents and offtake, and a venture round on traction, cap table and team.

What it measures

Five dimensions of a raise

Most rounds fail on one of these long before they fail on the pitch.

01

Asset readiness

Whether the opportunity itself is fundable: permits and offtake, revenue and cap table, security and cover.

02

Materials

Deck, model, data room and the offer architecture behind them

03

Audience

How much certified, owned reach you actually control today

04

Compliance

Where your content sits relative to the Section 21 perimeter

05

Process

Ownership, cadence and instrumentation between interest and application
