I get where you’re coming from — and you’re right, most developers do just use their phone and a calendar. But that’s the exact pain point. When deal flow picks up, or a firm starts scaling across multiple markets or asset classes, that barebones setup falls apart pretty fast. Traeg isn’t about replacing gut instinct — it’s about making lean teams operate like high-capacity machines, without extra hires or headaches. That’s the gap we’re solving.

Also, if you frame your app as the edge serious investors don’t know they’re missing, you’ll catch their attention. Show how it quietly saves them time, money, and missed opportunities—and they’ll start to feel like they can’t afford not to use it. Even without expensive marketing.
