What it does

Once installed, the agent writes fundraising messages to investors, such as cold emails, warm intro blurbs, follow-ups and post-meeting updates. It follows a fixed structure: a specific subject line, an opener tied to the investor's focus, a short pitch with proof, and one direct ask. It also avoids common filler phrases and asks you for missing context so drafts are not generic.

Great for

  • Founders preparing to contact angels, VCs or accelerators
  • People who need a warm intro blurb they can forward to a connector
  • Founders sending follow-ups or investor updates during a fundraising process

Skip it if

  • Legal, tax or securities advice, since the skill only drafts communication and does not check regulatory compliance (for example, what can be said in a raise)
  • Mass or templated mailings, which the skill is designed to discourage because it requires personalization
  • Fundraising for non-investor audiences such as customers, hiring or press, which this skill does not cover

Try asking

  • “Write a cold email to a seed investor who focuses on developer tools, referencing one of their portfolio companies”
  • “Draft a forwardable intro blurb under 100 words that my advisor can send to a VC partner”
  • “Write a day-5 follow-up to an investor who has not replied, with one new traction data point”
  • “Turn my meeting notes into a post-meeting update with the promised answer and next step”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the agent the investor's name, fund thesis, recent portfolio companies or public posts so it can personalize the opener; without that, the draft will be flagged as still needing personalization.
  • Provide real proof points such as revenue, growth numbers or customer names, because the skill asks for concrete proof rather than adjectives.
  • If you want your own writing voice, run the brand-voice skill first; this skill refers to it for the VOICE PROFILE, which may need to be installed separately.
