Get the 3-email sequence that lands investor meetings
One email rarely gets a reply. Tell us your raise and we draft the full sequence: a tight intro, a value-add follow-up, and a breakup email, ready to send from your own inbox.
- A full 3-touch sequence, not a single cold email
- Sends from YOUR Gmail, so it lands in the inbox, not spam
- Auto-stops the moment an investor replies
Built on patterns from 1,000+ funded raises. Sends from your own Gmail for real deliverability. 12 languages.
Created by founders from top global accelerators
How it works
Three steps. Three emails. One reply that starts the round.
- 01
Tell us your raise
Stage, ask, and a bit of traction. That is enough to draft all three emails.
- 02
We write the full sequence
Intro, follow-up, and breakup, tuned to what gets replies from investors at your stage. Each email builds on the last.
- 03
Send from your Gmail and track
Copy them into Gmail or use Round+ to send from your own inbox, personalize per investor, and auto-stop the sequence when someone replies.
A peek at the 3-touch sequence
This is what a seed founder sends to each investor. Sign up to generate yours, personalized per fund.
Email 1: the intro (day 0)
Subject with your stage, ask, and strongest metric. Two sentences: what you do and the traction. One specific reason you emailed THIS investor. A clear ask for a 20-minute call. Under 120 words.
Email 2: the follow-up (day 3)
Short, no guilt. Adds one new proof point since the first email (a new customer, a metric, a milestone). Re-states the ask. Reminds them why the fit is specific to their thesis.
Email 3: the breakup (day 7)
The highest-reply email of the three. Polite and final: closing the round soon, one last look. Creates urgency without pressure. Often gets the reply the first two did not.

Why a sequence beats a single email
Most founders send one email and give up. Four reasons the sequence wins.
01
Most replies come after email 1
Investors are busy, not uninterested. Your first email gets buried. The follow-up and breakup are what actually surface a reply. Founders who send one email and stop leave most of their meetings on the table.
02
The breakup email gets the most replies
The third email, the polite closing-soon last look, often outperforms the intro. Scarcity works. An investor who ignored two emails will reply to avoid missing a round that is filling up.
03
Send from your own domain, never a tool's
Blasting from a mass-email tool's shared IP lands you in spam and burns your name. Sending from your own Gmail keeps deliverability high and the email personal. This is why we send from your inbox, not ours.
04
Stop the sequence the second they reply
Nothing kills a warm lead like a follow-up that fires after they already replied. Automate the stop. On Round+ the sequence halts automatically the moment an investor responds.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from Clay, Instantly, or Apollo?
Those are generic sales-outreach tools you have to configure for fundraising, and blasting from their shared infrastructure hurts deliverability. This is built for a raise: the sequence, the timing, and the copy are tuned for investors, and it sends from your own Gmail so it lands in the inbox.
How is it different from Metal or RaiseBeacon?
Those focus on the investor list. We give you the personalized 3-touch sequence AND send it from your own inbox with reply tracking, so the whole outreach loop lives in one place, from draft to reply to pipeline.
Is cold-emailing investors even a good idea?
Yes, when it is tight and personal. Warm intros are better if you have them, but most founders outside SF do not. A specific, well-sequenced cold email gets a 5 to 15 percent reply rate. A generic one-off gets close to zero. The sequence is what makes cold work.
Will this land me in spam?
Not if you send from your own Gmail, which is what we recommend and what Round+ does. Mass-email tools that blast from shared IPs land in spam. Sending a small volume of personalized emails from your real inbox keeps deliverability high.
Is it free?
Generating the sequence is free. Round+, our paid product, sends it from your own Gmail to a list of matched investors, personalizes each one, tracks opens and replies, and auto-stops when someone responds. You do not need it to get the drafts.
