What I like best about Metal is that it gives you a lot of the investor context you actually care about in one place. You can quickly look at a VC and get a sense of their dry powder, investment velocity, recent activity, stage and sector focus, and how relevant they are for a specific startup.

I also really like being able to start from a category, look at companies in that space, and then see who invested in them. That’s a really powerful way to discover relevant investors and startups that you might not have found through a normal search.

Metal makes investor research much faster and more thoughtful. Instead of starting with a giant list of VCs, you can narrow in on the ones that actually make sense and understand why. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a VC, I’d love better support for searching for investors for multiple portfolio companies that are raising at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
