Portfolio Reporting Platform

The terms above govern this website and the financial model products and services sold on it. This section governs the Portfolio Reporting Platform (the "Platform"), our open-source venture capital reporting software, which is a separate product. Where this section conflicts with the terms above, this section controls for the Platform. Use of the Platform's source code is governed by the separate open-source Apache License 2.0; this section governs the website, any hosted instance of the Platform, and the managed hosting service.

What the Platform is

The Platform is an open-source portfolio reporting tool for venture capital firms, accelerators, and angel investors. You can self-host it on your own infrastructure or use it through a managed arrangement. It integrates with third-party services including a database provider (Supabase), hosting providers (Vercel, Netlify), AI providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter), email services (Postmark, Mailgun, Gmail, Resend), and file storage (Google Drive).

Self-hosted deployments

If you deploy the Platform on your own infrastructure, you are solely responsible for:

  • Provisioning, configuring, and maintaining your hosting environment, database, and all third-party service accounts
  • Securing your deployment, including access controls, API keys, encryption, and backups
  • All costs incurred from third-party services (hosting, database, AI APIs, email, storage)
  • Ensuring your use complies with the terms of service of each third-party provider you use
  • Keeping your deployment up to date with security patches

We have no access to your self-hosted deployment, your database, your API keys, or any data your instance processes.

Managed deployment

If we set up the Platform on your infrastructure:

  • We deploy it on infrastructure and accounts that you own
  • We receive access to your deployment during setup
  • After setup, access is optional and provided only at your request, to assist with maintenance, updates, or support
  • We will not access your portfolio data except as necessary to fulfill your requests
  • Your data resides on your own infrastructure and accounts
  • Fees are set in a separate written agreement

Managed hosting

If you use our hosted option, your fund shares infrastructure with other funds:

  • Your data is stored on shared infrastructure managed by us
  • The Platform enforces strict isolation between funds at the database level through row-level security, so no fund can reach another fund's data
  • We may access the shared infrastructure for maintenance and support, but will not access your portfolio data except as necessary to provide the service
  • Service levels, data handling, and fees are set in a separate written agreement
  • Either party may terminate the managed hosting arrangement per that agreement

Demo

We operate a demo environment with sample portfolio data for evaluation. It is read-only and contains fictitious data. Information submitted through the contact form is used solely to respond to your inquiry; see the Privacy Policy for details.

AI-powered features

The Platform uses AI to extract metrics from emails, generate company summaries, power portfolio analysis conversations, and draft LP letters. AI outputs are produced automatically and can contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies, so you are responsible for reviewing and verifying any AI-generated content before relying on it. Data sent to an AI provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, or OpenRouter) is subject to that provider's terms and privacy policy. AI-generated analysis, summaries, and letters do not constitute financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.

Not financial or investment advice

The Platform is a reporting and data-organization tool. Nothing it produces, including AI summaries, metrics, investment calculations, IRR figures, or LP letter drafts, constitutes financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. Consult qualified professionals for advice specific to your situation. We are not registered investment advisors, broker-dealers, or tax professionals.

Your data

You retain all rights to the portfolio data, company information, metrics, documents, and other content you input into the Platform. For self-hosted and managed deployments, your data resides on your own infrastructure and we have no access except as described above. For managed hosting, your data resides on shared infrastructure as described above.

Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Platform for any unlawful purpose, gain or attempt to gain unauthorized access to it or its related systems, interfere with or disrupt its integrity or performance, scrape or use automated means to access it beyond normal use, circumvent its access controls or security features, or use it in violation of the Apache License 2.0.

Third-party services

The Platform integrates with and depends on third-party services. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or reliability of any third-party service, and your use of them is subject to their own terms and policies. We do not control and are not liable for any third-party service's handling of your data.

Platform warranties and liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NONINFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT ANY DATA IT PROCESSES, INCLUDING AI-GENERATED CONTENT, WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR USE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM. FOR THE PLATFORM, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100.00) OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
