How it works
Tell me how you invest and what you want to see. I review every application myself and reply within a week.
Once you're approved, the private Deal Room channel in the First Check community unlocks for you, free. Every company in it said yes to being listed. Each listing covers what it does, its strongest proof point, my take, and what I'd ask. Approved investors also get a short monthly note when new companies join.
See a company you like? Ask me for an intro. I check with the founder first, and decks and contact details are only shared with their OK.
Optional · Deal Room VIP
VIP is the paid community and events side. Every VIP member applies through the same form and is approved first. You get a private VIP investor chat, a monthly dinner or salon featuring one founder, and in-person events. From $50 a month. You never need VIP to see the deals.

Once a month I host 8 to 10 Deal Room VIP members and one founder from the room. Ten minutes of the founder's story, then dinner and the questions that matter. VIP members get first seats, and invitations go out by email.
