Implementation tips

  • Reconcile every deck metric to a file in 02 Metrics — mismatches cost credibility fast.
  • Keep prior-round side letters complete; growth funds always ask what rights already exist.
  • Version the model and mark the one bidders should underwrite.

FAQs

How is a growth room different from a seed room?

Depth of metrics evidence: funds re-compute retention and unit economics from raw exports, not summary slides.

Should customer names be anonymised?

Early rounds often anonymise cohorts; by the confirmatory phase expect named references under NDA.
