Lessie helps you find active investors — the funds and angels actually deploying capital in your stage, sector and geo — with partner-direct contacts and a signal-based personalized opener, not a static VC directory.
Most investors on a static list are not deploying in your space this quarter. The ones who just raised a fund, made a recent check in your category, or publicly posted their thesis are far more likely to be relevant — so those are the ones to reach first.
“My DMs are open for devtools founders.” “Bullish on vertical AI.” “Send me deals with traction.” Lessie reads the thesis underneath.

Public thesis + open invite. Partner identified, actively sourcing. email + phone verified
A new fund close. A first check in your category. A new partner. Lessie maps each event to the investor most likely to be deploying.
Fresh capital with a clock on it. GPs often have fresh capital to put to work right after a close. email + phone verified
A ramped check pace. A conference sourcing spree. A portfolio hiring your ICP. Lessie reads the momentum that means they’ll move fast.

Deploying at pace — speed wins the allocation. Contact verified. email + phone verified
A growing library of investor signals — every one mapped to the partner with verified contact and a personalized outreach angle.
The moment a signal lands — a fund close, a thesis tweet, an in-category deal — Lessie runs the play: finds the partner, verifies the contact, and writes an opener that quotes their own words.
No cold lists. No spray-and-pray. You reach out with a relevant, specific reason.

Investor signals are real-time indicators that an investor is actively deploying capital — a fund that just closed, a partner publicly discussing your space, a recent check in your category. Instead of a static list of every investor, signals surface who is most likely to invest now, so you can reach the right people first.
Describe who you are looking for in plain language — stage, sector, geography, check size. Lessie searches across structured databases and the open web, reviews each candidate for fit and recent activity, and returns a short list of active investors with contact details you can reach out to in the same workflow.
Databases list investors and let you filter; they do not tell you who is deploying right now, and personal contact data is often limited. A signal-based approach prioritizes investors showing recent, relevant activity and pairs them with outreach — so you spend time on the funds most likely to respond, not the whole directory.
Contact details are pulled from live sources at search time and each candidate is reviewed for fit, so you start from current, relevant people rather than a stale export. Always verify an address before a large send and follow normal outreach etiquette — personalize, and do not blast.
Lessie is credit-based. Plans start at $99/mo (Basic, 1,000 credits/mo), with Pro at $299/mo (4,000 credits) and Max at $699/mo (10,000 credits). You are charged based on the actions you take. See the pricing page for current details.
Describe the thesis you fit — for example “seed investors backing AI infrastructure in the US, check size $250K–$1M” — and Lessie returns a fit-reviewed short list of investors active in that space, with contacts and outreach, rather than a generic VC directory to scroll.
Describe your round once — stage, sector, geo. Wake up to investors actively deploying, with partner-direct contacts and a signal-based personalized opener.
