Find investors from companies like yours.
Lookalike investors is the fastest way to start when you don't have a target list yet. Describe your raise in a sentence. We find the companies most like yours, the investor firms that funded them at your stage, verify each one still writes checks, and hand you the list to approve.
Work backwards from your peers.
The best signal for who will fund you is who funded companies like yours. Tell us what you do, your stage, and your geography. We map your closest comparable companies, then trace the investor firms behind their rounds at your stage.
Every firm is checked that it is still actively writing your-stage checks before it reaches your list. You approve the firms you want, and we enrich the partner contacts, the same verified LinkedIn + email you get everywhere else in 8Raise.
From a sentence to a contact list.
Describe your raise
One or two sentences: what your company does, the stage you are raising, and where you are based. Name any competitors you already know, and set how many firms you want back.
We map comparables + their backers
We find the companies most like yours, then the investor firms that funded them at your stage, and verify each firm still writes those checks today. The comparable-company map is free.
Approve, we deliver contacts
Review the firms and approve the ones you want. We enrich the partner contacts with verified LinkedIn, email, and phone, then drop them in your dashboard to export or push to outreach.
A vetted, contactable list.
A free comparable-company map
See the companies we matched to yours and why, before you spend a single credit. Download it at any stage of the run.
Firms that actually funded your peers
Not a keyword guess. Each firm is on your list because it backed one or more of your comparable companies at your stage, with the evidence attached.
Still-active check
Every firm is verified to still write your-stage checks as of this year. Firms that wound down, paused, or moved to a different stage are dropped.
Verified partner contacts
Approve a firm and we find the right partners inside it, with verified LinkedIn, work email, and phone, the same enrichment as the rest of 8Raise.
Three ways in, same engine.
Lookalike investors
You don't have a list yet. Describe your raise and we work backwards from companies like yours to the firms that funded them. Best for starting from zero.
Search
You know your thesis. Set the filters (mode, stage, sector, geography) and we return matching investors directly. Best when you already know what you want.
Enrichment
You already have firm names. Upload the list and we find the right partners inside each one. Best when the firms are decided and you need the humans.
Not just startups.
Startups raising equity
Find the VCs, angels, and corporate venture arms that funded comparable companies at your round and stage.
Funds raising from LPs
Find the allocators and LPs that backed comparable funds, mapped from public commitments and disclosures.
Real estate sponsors
Find the capital partners and RE allocators that funded comparable deals or vehicles in your strategy and geography.
Pre-IPO and secondaries
Find the crossover and secondaries buyers active in comparable late-stage names and round types.
Uses your monthly credit pool
Mapping the comparable companies is free. Each investor firm you approve costs 0.25 credits, and the partner contacts you enrich are billed at the normal per-investor rate, the same pool as Search and Enrichment. You see the credit estimate before you approve anything, and the comparable map is yours to download either way.
