Question 1

Is there a free tier?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Explorer is free forever with 20 screens per month. Professional and Team plans are pay-as-you-go with no long-term commitment. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time.

Question 2

What counts as a 'screen'?

Accepted Answer

One screen = one AI deal analysis run on a single company or fund. Re-running analysis on the same record counts as an additional screen. Saved results don't count against your quota.

Question 3

Can I import from PitchBook or my existing CRM?

Accepted Answer

Explorer supports CSV upload with auto-detected columns. Professional and above add Airtable import. Enterprise includes custom data connectors for PitchBook, Affinity, and other platforms.

Question 4

How does NUVC compare to Zapflow or 4Degrees?

Accepted Answer

Zapflow costs approximately $24,000/year and 4Degrees approximately $12,000/year — both focused on CRM and pipeline tracking. NUVC is an intelligence layer, not a CRM. Our Professional plan ($2,388/year) is 10x cheaper and purpose-built for AI-powered scoring and screening.

Question 5

What is the Deal Lens?

Accepted Answer

The Deal Lens re-weights NuScore's 6 VC dimensions — Team, Problem & Market, Solution & Product, Traction, Financials, and Risk & Fragility — through your specific investment criteria. Angel investors can weight team at 35%; seed VCs can emphasise market size; growth equity can prioritise traction. Professional users can fully customise dimension weights.

Question 6

What are the three investor archetypes?

Accepted Answer

NUVC adapts the entire workspace to how you actually decide. Professional VC mode gives you a card grid, IC voting, and a 6-stage pipeline. Expertise Angel mode opens in Review Mode (swipe triage) with domain-match badges as the hero signal. Network Angel mode shows a syndicate feed with co-investor proof. You pick your archetype during signup and can switch any time in Settings.

Question 7

What is the Mandate Pill?

Accepted Answer

Your active investment lens lives in the header on every screen. Click it to see your dimension weights, switch between 10 pre-built presets (Seed VC, Growth Equity, Tech Operator Angel, Deep Tech Specialist, and more), or drag the sliders to customise. The moment you switch, every visible deal score re-scores live with spring-physics animation — you watch your mandate reshape the pipeline.

Question 8

How fast is the AI DD memo?

Accepted Answer

Our Zhuge Liang agent drafts a structured DD report — Executive Summary, Team & Founder Fit, Market & Traction, Financials & Unit Economics, Risks, Recommendation — in roughly 30 seconds. Sections stream in one at a time. Edit any section inline, click ✨ AI Rewrite to regenerate with a custom prompt (also streamed), then export to docx. Built on the same agent stack that scores 610+ calibrated VC memos.

Question 9

Can I customise the lens weights and gates?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Click the Mandate Pill, then Customize Weights — drag sliders for each of the 6 dimensions, set hard auto-pass and auto-shortlist thresholds, add must-have or dealbreaker tags, and lock sectors and stages. Save as a custom preset so the whole team can apply it. Available on Professional and above.

Question 10

Is my screening data private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your deal evaluations and screening decisions are completely private. Founders never see your assessments. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
