Raiz’d - The DocSend alternative with an investor CRM built in

Raiz'd is the fundraising OS for pre-seed + seed founders. Share your deck as a tracked link and see who actually read it — down to the slide, and when it's forwarded to a partner. Run the whole raise in one place: investor CRM, NDA data room, and monthly updates with live metrics. Free, unlimited decks + links, no per-seat bill. Built for the agent era — when a VC's AI screens your deck, Raiz'd detects it and serves a brief you wrote. 🎁 PH deal: 1 year of Pro free, no card → raizd.xyz/ph

BlackoutPDF - Redact PDFs in your browser — nothing is uploaded

Most "free" PDF tools make you upload the file you're trying to protect — and "redact" with a box over text you can still copy out. BlackoutPDF runs 100% in your browser (turn off Wi-Fi — it still works), and redaction is destructive: the text is rebuilt into pixels, gone for good, metadata stripped. Redact, sign, merge, compress, convert. On-device OCR for scans. No account.
