Executive Summary

Investor outreach is still largely manual and fragmented: founders, SMB sales teams, corporate IRs and PE/VC/IR groups spend hours tracking contacts, personalizing messages and managing follow-ups across spreadsheets and disparate tools, a pain point affecting an estimated 6 million organizations. Low-quality personalization and missed follow-ups depress conversion rates and waste time that could be reallocated to product and strategy. You could build an AI-powered CRM embedded inside Notion that centralizes investor profiles, automates sequence management, and uses LLM-driven personalization to generate and tailor outreach and follow-ups at scale, bundled with templates for fundraising stages and simple analytics. The market is meaningful and timely—roughly $9.6B addressable (6M orgs × $1.6K ACV), with a Market Score of 92/100 and Revenue Potential of 88/100—because LLMs now make high-quality, scalable personalization feasible and companies are consolidating workflows into single workspaces like Notion. This product can differentiate by minimizing context switching through deep Notion embedding, offering founder-first pricing and lightweight workflows that undercut enterprise CRMs, and by integrating niche investor data for better targeting. That positioning plays to clear strengths—large TAM, accessible $1.6K ACV, and modern AI capabilities—but you should be candid about challenges: medium competition, dependence on Notion’s platform and policies, LLM cost and compliance risks, and the harder sell to large IR teams; starting with seed-stage founders and small funds mitigates many of those risks.
