About
Gatekeep — Meet investors without a warm intro. AI pitch simulator.
Pitching to venture capitalists can be a challenging and time-consuming process. This process is simplified through the use of AI-generated investor personas that mimic the style and focus of real VCs across various sectors including crypto, AI, consumer, and fintech. Founders can pitch these AI personas in a 30-minute timed session, receiving a scored verdict across 12 dimensions and a detailed PDF report. The AI personas ask questions and provide a realistic simulation of a VC pitch.
The service is designed for both founders and VCs. Founders get a detailed breakdown of their pitch, including areas for improvement, and can choose to surface their report to real VCs if they wish. VCs can claim their profiles and customize their AI personas to reflect their actual investment thesis, red flags, and signature questions. As founders pitch the AI personas, VCs can review the resulting reports in their dashboard, complete with company overviews, 12-dimension breakdowns, and full transcripts.
Pricing varies based on usage. Founders can pitch two AI personas for free initially and receive one free pitch every week thereafter. They can retry a pitch for $3 or pitch a new VC for $5. For unlimited pitches and additional features like priority exposure and analytics, a $20 monthly subscription is available. VCs receive one founder report per day for free and can upgrade to unlimited access for $50 per month.
