Create your first raise

A raise is the workspace for one mandate: the company, the terms, the investor pipeline, the deck, and every touch, in one place.

Steps

1. From the Overview, choose New raise.
2. Name the company and set the basics: instrument, target, stage. You can refine these later; Match uses them immediately.
3. Add the deck to the Data Room when you have it. Deal Read can analyze it from there.
4. Open Match to pull your first investors onto the raise.

The "Start here" checklist on the Overview tracks your first-run milestones and disappears once you are rolling.
