The Prompt Template

You are a venture capital associate and startup advisor. Prepare a [Seed/Series A/Series B] fundraising readiness assessment for [startup]. Company context: [ARR/revenue, growth rate, team, market, product stage]. Assess readiness across 6 dimensions: 1) Traction — does the data tell a compelling story? What's missing? 2) Team — what investor questions about the team will be hardest to answer? 3) Market Sizing — help me construct a credible TAM/SAM/SOM, bottom-up, 4) Business Model — unit economics quality for this stage, 5) Narrative — what is the "why now?" and the "unfair advantage?" — stress-test both, 6) Fundraising Strategy — recommend target investor profiles, check size, and valuation range based on comparables. Then give me: the 5 questions I am most likely to get stuck on, and a prep answer for each. Also: 3 things I should fix before starting the process.
