Fundraisly review: investor meetings booked for startup founders (2026)

Fundraisly website: investor meetings booked for startup founders

Fundraisly finds investors for startups and books calls with them. It is part software, part people. The top plan comes with a dedicated ex-VC fundraising manager, so think of it as a service with AI inside rather than an app you run yourself. It is for founders raising pre-seed to Series B, not most small businesses. Prices start at $1,000 (about £752) plus $100 (about £75) per investor call. It was #1 on Product Hunt for the day, week and month. My rating: ★★½☆☆ 2.5/5.

What is Fundraisly?

Fundraisly helps startups get in front of investors. It ranks investors by the deals they have actually done - by stage, market and location - rather than what they say they invest in. Its UK investor page says the database holds 2,407 active UK-based investors. It then looks for warm routes in through your Gmail, Outlook and LinkedIn connections.

For investors you cannot reach warmly, it sends cold emails from separate inboxes and domains. The idea is to keep your main company domain safe. The homepage promises 10-50 qualified investor meetings in 90 days. The terms say it does not guarantee any results.

The agent part is the research, targeting and follow-up, which runs without you writing each email. But I want to be plain about this: Fundraisly is partly a human service. The Agency plan includes a dedicated ex-VC fundraising manager and advice on your deck, data room and strategy, and the homepage mentions weekly pipeline reviews. Its UK investor page says signing up means a short onboarding and then a call with the team.

How it did on Product Hunt

Fundraisly finished #1 on Product Hunt for the day, the week and the month.

Upvotes as shown on Product Hunt on 17 October 2026.

That is a big win. Its 1,503 upvotes were well ahead of the next-highest June launch, Upstream, on 960. The product page, the launch page and the daily, weekly and monthly leaderboards all show 1,503. A strong launch day tells you the pitch landed with the Product Hunt crowd. It does not tell you how many founders went on to raise money, and only three people have left a review.

What Product Hunt users said

  • The review score is 5.0 from 3 reviews. That is a tiny sample for a launch with over 1,500 upvotes.
  • One reviewer liked that it takes on the slow, repetitive parts of fundraising - finding investors, mapping intros and outreach - while leaving the pitch to the founder. Another simply called it the best option for startups.
  • The same first reviewer asked for more proof: case studies and open results.
  • In the comments, one person worried that mass AI outreach could harm a founder's name with investors. The makers said emails are spaced out, stop when someone replies and go only to well-matched investors.
  • Others asked how the data compares with PitchBook, Dealroom and Crunchbase. The makers said those are inputs, with their own scoring on top, and that reports came as Google Sheets rather than a built-in CRM. The service plans now list a CRM.

How much does Fundraisly cost?

Fundraisly publishes two plans in US dollars, and both need real money up front.

PlanPriceWhat you get
Pay-per-Call$1,000 one-off setup (about £752), then $100 per investor call (about £75)Setup covers the first three months. The written scope lists email inboxes and domains, a validated investor list, a CRM and warm introduction paths.
Agency$5,000 a month (about £3,760), paid in advance, minimum two months (about £7,520)Everything above plus outreach messages written and sent for you, advice on your deck, data room and pitch, a fundraising strategy and a dedicated ex-VC fundraising manager.

Fees exclude taxes and VAT is not mentioned by name. All payments are non-refundable unless stated otherwise. There is no free plan or trial, and no annual discount. The homepage quotes "$99-5k/mo", but I could not find a $99 plan on the service plans page.

What I like

  • It ranks investors on deals they have actually done, not on the thesis on their website. That is how a good fundraiser works.
  • Outreach goes from separate inboxes and domains, so your company email is not put at risk.
  • The Pay-per-Call plan ties most of the cost to calls that happen. That is fairer than a flat agency retainer.
  • The founding team has investor-side experience. The CEO, Anna Mastykina, says she was a senior associate at a $600M fund.
  • It has public UK investor data. The UK page shows the top 10 UK investors by recent deals for free.

What I'd want fixed

  • No trial and non-refundable fees. For a young company, that is a lot of trust to ask for.
  • The terms include a non-disparagement clause, so both sides agree not to make statements that could harm the other's reputation. I would not sign that without legal advice.
  • The numbers do not line up. Product Hunt says 300k+ investors, the homepage table says 120k+, and the homepage price range starts at $99 with no plan to match.
  • The Pay-per-Call plan says "minimum fixed term of two (3) months". Small, but it is a contract.
  • When you leave, the outreach inboxes and domains are "permanently disabled and destroyed".

Who should use it?

Fundraisly suits a funded or near-funded startup founder raising a venture round who has more money than time and wants someone else to run investor outreach. It is not for most UK small businesses, which will not raise from VCs at all. If that is you, skip it. If you want to do the work yourself for free, try OpenVC instead.

Is it safe to use? Privacy and permissions

  • To find warm intros it asks to connect Gmail or Outlook. The privacy policy says it reads email metadata (senders, recipients, timestamps, subjects) and limited email content only where needed and authorised. The homepage calls its Gmail connection CASA-certified; the privacy policy names no security certifications.
  • It uses third-party AI tools to analyse your email data. The policy says it does not train models "unrelated to the Services", which leaves training for its own service open.
  • Data may be sent to the United States. The site uses Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Google Ads and Fullstory session replay.
  • The privacy policy mentions UK GDPR and lists your rights, including access and erasure. My guide to AI agents and UK GDPR explains what to check.

Using it in the UK

  • It is available to UK founders and has a UK investor list of 2,407 UK-based investors (540 VC firms and 1,867 angels).
  • Prices are in US dollars, taxes are extra and VAT is not mentioned. Contracts fall under Delaware law and Delaware courts.
  • The privacy policy does not say where data is hosted. It does say UK and EU data may go to the US.

Other launches from the same team

  • I found no other Product Hunt launches from this team. CEO Anna Mastykina's maker history lists only Fundraisly.

Alternatives to Fundraisly

  • OpenVC - a free investor database, CRM and deck sharing, with Premium at $99 a month or $299 a year (about £74 or £225). Pick it if you will run your own outreach.
  • Boardy - an AI "superconnector" that makes warm introductions only after both sides opt in. Pick it if you want intros rather than cold email.
  • Crowdcube - a UK crowdfunding platform regulated by the FCA. Pick it if your business suits raising from the public rather than VCs.

Overall★★½☆☆ 2.5/5

I would only try Fundraisly as a funded founder short on time, and I would start with the Pay-per-Call plan, not the agency retainer. I would want the full contract read first, because of the non-refundable fees and the non-disparagement clause. For everyone else, the free tools do most of the research part.

Frequently asked questions

Is Fundraisly free?

No. There is no free plan or trial. The Pay-per-Call plan costs $1,000 (about £752) to set up plus $100 (about £75) per investor call. The Agency plan costs $5,000 (about £3,760) a month for at least two months.

Is Fundraisly an AI agent or a human service?

Both. Software finds and ranks investors, maps warm introductions and sends outreach. People do the rest on the Agency plan: a dedicated ex-VC fundraising manager, pitch and data room advice and strategy. Onboarding includes a call with the team.

Fundraisly vs OpenVC: which is better?

OpenVC is free for most features, with Premium at $99 a month, but you run the outreach yourself. Fundraisly runs it for you and costs far more. If you have time and little money, start with OpenVC.
