What RaiseRunner handles
A raise needs a researched list, a personal email for every investor and follow-ups that happen on time. We do that work. You keep the decisions.
Research.
We find investors who fit your stage, sector, cheque size and geography, and explain why each one made the list.
Personal outreach.
We write an email for each investor from your company facts and send it from your mailbox, spread through the week.
Follow-ups.
We follow up on schedule and stop the moment an investor replies or opts out.
Three phases, one campaign
Deck and website inform the company profile, investor research and campaign plan.
The founder reviews the investors, reasoning and exact emails before launch.
Outreach, follow-ups and the Monday Briefing keep the campaign moving.

The research behind every campaign
Investor Navigator finds the fit.
It matches your raise against comparable deals, stated theses, stage, cheque size, geography and portfolio conflicts, and explains every recommendation.
Included in every plan, including Ignite.
Funding Wizard spots the timing.
It watches for new funds, partner moves, fresh deals in your space and open calls for pitches, and says why an investor may be worth approaching now.
Included in Pro and Elite.
RaiseRunner runs the outreach campaign using that research. Product overview →
Your inbox. Your investors. Your call.
Sent from your own mailbox.
Investors hear from you, not from a platform. Every thread lives in your inbox.
Nothing goes out before you approve.
You sign off the first week's investors, reasoning and messages.
Replies stop the sequence.
When an investor replies or opts out, automated follow-ups stop on every plan.
Real questions come to you.
In Pro and Elite, we handle routine requests and scheduling. Anything about your business, terms or numbers comes back to you.
The Monday Briefing
One short email, every Monday:
- Investors contacted, and why each was chosen
- Positive replies, passes and open requests
- Meetings booked and meetings held
- New investor activity worth acting on
- Next week's planned outreach
- Anything that needs your input
Pick how much you want handled.
Weekly numbers are ceilings, not targets. Fit comes first, and each firm counts once.
Built by someone who has read the cold emails.

FAQ
What happens when I start a plan?
Starting begins onboarding. We confirm your plan and billing with you, you connect your mailbox and confirm your company profile, and nothing is sent until you approve week one.
Will investors know it is automated?
Emails are written for each investor, sent from your mailbox and approved by you. They read like you wrote them because they are built from your facts and your voice.
Do you guarantee meetings?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. We guarantee the work: researched investors, personal outreach and follow-ups that happen on schedule.
What do I still have to do?
Confirm your company facts, approve the first week, answer real investment questions and take the meetings.
Who is it for?
Founders raising pre-seed or seed, with a working product or technical milestone, some evidence of demand and a deck. We are strongest with B2B software today.
