We’re building Zetiify — a single platform that helps startup founders connect directly with the right investors, from idea stage to pre-IPO, using AI-powered matchmaking and readiness scoring.
Startup Description
Zetiify is the first unified founder–investor matchmaking platform where startups can pitch to all investor types — angels, VCs, private equity, hedge funds, accelerators, and syndicates — in one place. We solve the two biggest inefficiencies in fundraising: misalignment (founders wasting months pitching to the wrong investors) and noise (investors overwhelmed by irrelevant deal flow).
Our platform uses AI‑driven fit scoring to match founders with investors whose thesis, stage, and portfolio strategy align perfectly. Readiness benchmarking ensures founders approach investors only when their pitch, traction, and metrics meet the right thresholds. Trust‑layered warm introductions replace cold outreach, dramatically increasing conversion rates.
Unlike fragmented tools that focus on a single stage or investor type, Zetiify covers the entire fundraising journey from idea stage to IPO, creating a defensible network effect where every new user improves match quality for all.
Our vision is to become the global trust‑and‑matching layer for startup fundraising and the fastest unicorn in India’s history, enabling innovation anywhere to be funded everywhere.

Business Model
Zetiify operates on a hybrid SaaS + success‑fee marketplace model designed to generate both predictable recurring revenue and scalable upside from deal flow.
We monetize through:
1. Premium Subscriptions – Founders and investors pay for advanced features such as AI‑driven fit scoring, readiness benchmarking, enhanced visibility, and unlimited warm introductions.
2. Success Fees – A 1.5–3% fee on successfully funded deals facilitated through the platform, aligning our incentives with user success.
3. Partnership & Ecosystem Integrations – White‑label/API solutions for accelerators, incubators, and corporate innovation arms to manage portfolio fundraising and deal sourcing.
4. Data & Insights Services – Aggregated, anonymized market intelligence sold to investors, ecosystem partners, and research institutions. This dual‑revenue approach ensures cash flow stability from subscriptions while capturing transaction‑based upside as deal volume grows. Our model benefits from network effects — as more founders and investors join, match quality improves, retention increases, and customer acquisition costs drop.
By covering the entire fundraising journey from idea stage to IPO and serving all investor types (angels, VCs, PE, hedge funds, accelerators), Zetiify creates multiple monetization touchpoints across the lifecycle of a startup.
