#### **Notes**

- The matching algorithm uses your raise amount, startup description, tags, and optional deck upload to produce the most relevant investor list.
- You can edit your fundraise details at any time from the left-hand menu.
- Please note that the system does not support sending bulk emails. It is designed to be done individually, allowing each message to feel more personal and tailored to the investor. This approach helps create more meaningful connections and improves engagement.
