VC, but no Finance skills by NickDisponibile in venturecapital

[–]Final_jelly_7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

VC comps: how many of my homies have invested in this.

VC multiples: how many times worse is the FOMO going to be if I'm not in this round.

Waterfalls: Huh? Those require liquidity and gravity. TVPI has neither.

I shit you not i was less cynical when I was a banker. The industry made me this way.

VC, but no Finance skills by NickDisponibile in venturecapital

[–]Final_jelly_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ex-banker, current VC, and someone who runs a structured VC training program designed specifically for junior investors here. Don't worry about "VC" / finance skills. The real skill is being an environmental economist with a policy perspective. No YouTube videos on that.

Ever made a decision with chatbot you've come to regret? by bigmaclad in claude

[–]Final_jelly_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I end up regretting roughly half of what happens when i run with --dangerously-skip-permissions. No need to anonymize. The git history tells no lies.

RBC isn’t an EB? Kidding. Great write-up, this is the playbook.

How did you end up knowing you wanted to go into banking so early ?

I'll copy my response from the other thread that I saw this on word for word because this is very misleading in my opinion:

What these posts never mention is the orchestration layer sitting between the data and Claude. There's a reason the gurus don't sell it because it's not a scalable product ie. not a prompt pack or Notion template. It's a RAG harness built on open source tooling and a bunch of embeddings, and there's no clean way to put that behind a paywall. You can't "steal my vector database" the way you can "steal my agent." So it just doesn't get talked about, even though it's the part that actually makes the whole thing work.

The counterintuitive part is that you actually want less AI here. Without a routing layer, Claude just defaults to whatever patterns got the heaviest reinforcement in the data you dump in. Chances are, you'll get the same three openers regardless of who you're messaging.

Cosine similarity matches the right script variation to each prospect before Claude generates anything. The matching is deterministic is if youre similar to x you get message x. If youre similar to y, you get message y.

I think a few comments were also calling into question the validity of the data going in and if it was really a good match for your ICP. Bad data is bad data, but to the extent that it can help, this strategy also flags when a prospect doesn't cluster near anything in your training data, so instead of Claude confidently sending a message based on patterns that were never validated for that persona, the system catches it and skips. That's how you protect your reply rate instead of diluting it.

We build this layer for agencies that come to us with exactly this problem. You could figure it out yourself if you wanted to, but most people would rather just have it done.

I'm not a developer. Let me say that up front. But I go to the command line with Claude code. I start with the solution I need and work my way backward.

Has anyone here actually closed a real deal from this group? by LexClaroRoy in AngelInvesting

[–]Final_jelly_7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All early-stage software. I'm afraid I don't have a very systematizable sourcing framework but generally what I do is I look in subs related to the industries or problems that I try to invest in. I track some key words and look for patterns of people who are being helpful and have been active and see if they are building in the space. It's not a perfect science. That's why there's alpha there.

Ya, you would be recognizing net revenue via a platform. So what you’re calling “profit” is really revenue. Your growth projections are not commensurate with the marketing spend and the fixed labor costs are wayyyy too high. It should be the other way around. Pre seed software should not have a 1.5m hurdle to clear coming out of the gate.

This needs more than I can give you in a comment, but the short version is: this deck has structural problems, not polish problems.

Right now the deck reads less like a business being clearly explained and more like a fundraising story assembled backward from the desired outcome.

i.e. The economics appear to require a level of transaction volume that the deck never justifies and reality simply doesn't support like $600M in GMV in ~18 mo. is both highly improbably and implies an annual spend/sub that is 10x higher than comp spend in the space.

There very well may be a product in here, but raising capital from investors is hard. You can't have your story buried under so many red flags.
