What Makes Seedscout Different?
We Are Strictly Double Opt-In
Founders cannot see your email address or get in touch with you unless you accept their intro request. If you deny their intro request, there is no way for them to follow up, protecting your privacy.
No Carry or Success Fees
When you invest in a company, none of that investment is reserved to pay Seedscout. 100% off what you intend to invest will go into the company, maximizing ownership for you and runway for the startup.
Build Up Your Investor Network To Collab On Deals
Although the main focus of Seedscout is to meet founders, you can just as easily meet other investors on the platform too, expanding your deal flow sources and building up your co-investor network to work on different deals.

Raised by Seedscout Founders (So Far)
Est. 2019
Seedscout has been helping connect founders and investors since 2019. Seedscout was started by Mat Sherman, when he realized the only thing stopping really smart people with some extra cash on their hands from investing in the private market was simply their access to great startup deals. He started Seedscout to help give anyone in the world a real shot at investing in the next Uber or Dropbox.
I love the Seedscout ecosystem. I've met some fantastic founders way before they were discovered by other investors and incubators. Mat Sherman is the BEST scout in venture capital and has infused the organization with his hard-earned knowledge of how the funding ecosystems work and how they can work better in the future. Highly recommend.
On Seedscout, founders have to pay. That filters off unserious companies. What's left? Companies I actually want to meet. When someone asks to meet me on LinkedIn, odds I respond are maybe 2%. On Seedscout, it's close to 100%. It's amazing how putting a price on messages kills spam. It also leads to real community. That's why I'm on Seedscout. Are you?
I've met and invested in some awesome founders thanks to Seedscout. Love the platform!
I've had the pleasure to see some seedscout companies and have investing in at least three of them, so the deal flow quality has been quite high. I've been super impressed by that. The companies come from literally all over the US, and they are all crisp and interesting opportunities
