From smarter scoring to autonomous AI workflows — here's everything new in NUVC.
Your report now shows what VCs will actually push back on — with specific data, industry benchmarks, and actionable fixes. Prepare for investor meetings before you walk in.

v4.0 — Released March 2026
Today, NUVC's 27 AI agents work when you ask them to. Next, they work while you sleep.
Agentic workflows turn NUVC from a tool you use into a team that runs. Agents will autonomously monitor deal flow, enrich investor data, flag scoring drift, generate IC memos, and nudge founders — all on durable pipelines that survive crashes and pick up exactly where they stopped. Every action is observable, every decision is auditable, and humans stay in the loop for what matters.
Mia monitors new decks. Ava enriches overnight. Olivia re-scores when data changes. Isla re-matches when investor theses update. No manual triggers.
Multi-step workflows that pause, retry, and resume. A fund screening that takes 20 minutes won't lose progress if the server restarts. Every step is logged.
Agents propose, you decide. IC memos need approval. Score overrides require confirmation. The AI Talent Manager promotes or flags agents — you sign off.
What this unlocks
Overnight Enrichment Sweeps
Ava processes the lowest-quality investor records while you sleep, pulling LinkedIn, Crunchbase, and Apollo data.
Auto-Generated IC Memos
When a deal hits your shortlist, Epictetus drafts an 8-section LP-grade memo and pauses for your review.
Scoring Drift Alerts
Olivia detects when score distributions shift and flags whether it's data quality or model drift.
Smart Re-Matching
When an investor updates their thesis, Isla re-runs matching for their entire pipeline without manual intervention.
CEO Morning Briefing v2
A daily digest that's not just stats — it includes what agents did overnight, what needs your attention, and what's blocked.
Founder Nudge Engine
Grace sends contextual nudges to founders based on score changes, market signals, and engagement patterns.
v3.8 — March 20, 2026
The admin dashboard is now a living AI operations center. See what every agent is doing, get a daily CEO briefing, and manage your AI workforce — all backed by a data flywheel where every user action makes the platform smarter.

v5.2 — March 2026
A peer-reviewed scoring engine upgrade: 7 dimensions, score waterfall decomposition, raise probability estimates, and a 4-tier LLM-rules cross-check calibrated on 610+ labeled examples from 4 independent sources. Product execution is now confirmed as the strongest predictor of expert assessment (r²=0.773) — not team, contradicting conventional VC wisdom.
7 Scoring Dimensions
Team, Problem/Market, Solution/Product, Traction, Financials, Risk/Fragility, and Conviction. Stage-aware weights shift automatically — traction matters more at Series A, team at pre-seed.
Score Waterfall
Every score includes a ranked list of signal contributions (e.g., Team: +0.89, Solution: +0.74, Traction: -0.33). Founders see exactly what moved the score and by how much.
Raise Probability Estimator
75% at 8.5+, 55% at 7.5–8.5, 35% at 6.5–7.5, 20% at 5.5–6.5. Stage-adjusted with traction and team signal modifiers.
Multi-Tier Cross-Check
A multi-tier protocol resolves disagreements between AI and rule-based scoring. LLM judge provides 6x more score discrimination than rules alone.
610-Example Corpus
85 known-outcome decks (SpaceX, Stripe, Canva, Theranos), 110 Startmate accelerator apps scored by human evaluators, 243+ production NuScores, 172 VC deal memos. Four independent sources, three label quality tiers.
Engineered Features + 134 Tests
Quantitative and qualitative engineered features. 134 automated tests covering fairness, E2E pipeline, data ingestion, and scoring features. Daily drift monitoring.
