Seed and pre-seed—when the problem is sharp, the product is taking shape, and early GTMsignals exist.
What’s Arali’s edge for founders?

Do you lead rounds?
We can lead or co-lead depending on fit, round dynamics, and ownership targets.

Fast when inputs are clear: deck + product demo + customer references = compressedtimelines.
What do you look for in early traction?
Pull: repeat usage, time-to-value, strong references, and a wedge that expands.
What’s a good first outreach?
Problem, ICP, why now, what you built, traction (even qualitative), and what you want froman early partner.
What’s not a fit?
