VC Info

Produce a concise VC firm briefing from web research. Max 2 search rounds.

Research

Round 1 — run all in parallel:

1. {name} venture capital fund size AUM overview
2. {name} VC portfolio companies investments
3. {name} venture capital partners team
4. {name} VC investment thesis verticals
5. site:crunchbase.com/organization {name}
6. site:linkedin.com {name} venture capital partners
7. Fetch the firm's website homepage, /team, /portfolio, and /about pages

Round 2 (only if critical gaps): Max 3 targeted follow-ups for missing fund size, partner LinkedIn URLs, or portfolio data.

Rules

• Never fabricate. Write "Not disclosed" for missing fields.
• Use search snippets when sites block fetching (LinkedIn, Crunchbase).
• LinkedIn links: Extract actual linkedin.com/in/... URLs from search results. Never guess. Omit if not found.
• Cross-reference fund size across 2+ sources when possible.
• Prefer sources from last 12 months.
• List at least 5 portfolio companies, prioritizing well-known ones.
• Include all GPs and MDs; limit other team to notable members.

Output

Read references/template.md for the exact output structure. Sections:

1. TLDR — 2-3 sentences + key facts table
2. Thesis & Focus — philosophy, sweet spot, geo, what they look for
3. Team — background + LinkedIn
4. Funds — table of funds with year, size, status
5. Portfolio — table with vertical, stage, status
6. Access & Process — how to get in, speed, founder-friendliness
7. Value Add & Reputation — beyond capital + founder sentiment
8. Recent Activity — latest fund, deals, exits
9. Quick Take — best fit / skip if

Keep sentences short. No filler. If data unavailable, say so.

Edge Cases

• Micro VC / solo GP: Single partner, smaller portfolio, may lack fund history.
• Corporate VC: Note parent company, strategic vs financial, strings attached.
• Multi-stage / mega fund: Clarify which stage team is relevant.
• Angel group / syndicate: Note if formal fund or deal-by-deal.
• Not found: Tell the user directly.
