How is this not obviously the coolest thing ever? Better, someone needs to launch an api like this one where the company sends in data and the investors can only see the category / data and don't see the company. Then the company can get inbound intros and decide whether to show who they are.

@joemellin You nailed it. Let me know if you have any questions.

I'm suprised that @naval hasn't implemented a tool like this into AngelList
Alain
@naval @BlendahTom Good point. Maybe AngelList didn't do it because it doesn't work? What problem is the API solving that an AngelList manual profile doesn't already (mostly) solve?
Tom Masiero
@naval @alain94040 I would think some type of validation by data would be a positive thing at some point in the future for AngelList.

This is a great concept but there's not enough information about the methodology, the team, or the fund for me to believe in it. There's also no case studies of companies you've funded. So, great concept but I don't trust it from the website.
Clarence Wooten Jr.
@TO That's fair. We need to walk before we can fly. Stay tuned.

The Traction API enables startups to connect to VentureFund.io and start sharing metrics about their user traction, such as user numbers, growth, engagement, and so on. The idea is that startups should be able to easily use their data to pitch instead of using countless time pitching investors.

@erictwillis Thanks for submitting us to Product Hunt. It's appreciated. Where did you initially hear about us?
Eric Willis
@clarencewooten In the Venture Beat article (added in the related articles section).

One word describes this product. Disruptive. Well done!
Jack Smith
I have zero idea what this actually is; whether it's a product or what. Their description says "Yes. We are an early-stage venture capital fund." - so this is not a product it's just a VC fund that has made an api to grab all your traction data?
Tom Masiero
@_jacksmith The way I understand it.. is that you can either choose to use them or send that data to whoever you want.
Clarence Wooten Jr.
@_jacksmith It's a lot more than that.
Eric Willis
@BlendahTom That's what I understood it as when I looked over everything. I wouldn't have hunted it if the API solely pushed data back to one fund.
Jack Smith
@clarencewooten ok - well that's not clear from your website at all, as the first question in your FAQ is "are you a venture fund" - answer = yes. and the website is called venturefund.io lol. As I say, the website and even press articles gave me zero insight as to what the product(?) actually is. I think that including actual screenshots or a link to a demo account could be highly beneficial.
Clarence Wooten Jr.
@_jacksmith @BlendahTom Yes. That is correct.
