Gatekeep is where founders pitch AI personas of real investors, and those investors receive a scored report on every pitch. It solves the 'one-shot problem' in fundraising by letting founders practice against AI versions of real VCs, get scored across twelve dimensions, and — if they pass — have their report sent directly to the real investor whose persona they pitched. This creates a first screen that runs without the investor lifting a finger, and builds a proprietary dataset of pitch-to-outcome data that cannot be scraped.
