Introduction to Pitch Relay

What is Pitch Relay?

Pitch Relay is a revolutionary feature within OnePass designed to simplify and streamline the fundraising process for startups while providing investors with a curated deal flow of high-quality opportunities. Instead of startups pitching to investors one by one, they submit a single, well-crafted pitch. Once approved, the pitch is automatically distributed to investors who match the startup’s profile and investment criteria.

For investors, Pitch Relay offers a curated deal flow of startups that align with their interests, as well as an open feed to explore all approved pitches. This ensures that both startups and investors can connect efficiently and effectively.
