Pitch deck tracking
that closes rounds.

The fundraising silence

You sent your deck to 30 VCs.
Now what?

Three days of refreshing your inbox. No replies. Are they reading? Did the deck land in spam? Did the partner pass internally and forget? Are you wasting follow-ups on the wrong firms?

Email read receipts don't work for forwarded attachments. Most warm investors stay silent until they're ready. And the ones who say "interesting, let me circulate" — you have no way of knowing if the partner ever opened it.

That's a closed-loop signal problem. Recon closes it.

"I sent my Series A deck to 47 VCs. Recon told me 11 actually read it. I followed up only with those 11. Closed in 6 weeks instead of 16."
