How to Get a Warm Intro to a Pre-Seed Investor

Prepare a pre-seed investor introduction that makes your stage, evidence, and investor fit easy for a connector to evaluate.

A practical answer

What to know

Pre-seed investors often decide quickly on founder and market signal, so the introduction should make both easy to see. Explain what you are building, the evidence you have so far, and why this investor's thesis or experience is relevant. Keep the request small: a short conversation, not an implied commitment.

A thoughtful next step

Try this

  1. State the company, stage, and the evidence you can share.

  2. Explain why this investor's focus or experience matches your market.

  3. Ask for a brief conversation and let the connector set the tone.
