myCFO - outsourced finance leadership

Prepare your funding round with a CFO beside you

Model, valuation, cap table and data room ready before you talk to investors, and someone with experience sitting next to you when the term sheet arrives.

What fundraising support includes

We cover the financial side of the process from the first spreadsheet to the reporting after closing.

Financial model

A three- to five-year model with unit economics, growth assumptions, hiring plan and the cash need that justifies the amount you are raising.

Valuation and cap table

We build a defensible valuation range, simulate dilution in this round and the next ones, and clean up the cap table before anyone sees it.

Deck and financial story

We review the financial part of the deck: metrics, use of funds, milestones and runway. It has to match the model and survive the questions.

Investor data room

We prepare accounts, contracts, metrics and projections in an orderly room so the investor's due diligence does not stall the round.

Term sheet negotiation

We analyze liquidation preferences, anti-dilution, vesting and governance with your counsel, and explain what each clause means in dollars.

Investor reporting

After closing we set up the monthly or quarterly reporting your investors expect and track the use of funds.

Who this service is for

Startups preparing their first round with angels or a venture fund that do not yet have a finance person on the team. And those that have already raised and need a model that stands up to a Series A.

Also established SMEs looking for an equity partner or growth capital, and founders who receive an offer and want to understand it before answering. If the round combines equity with grants or public loans, we coordinate it with our grants and financing service.

Investors read numbers. Make sure yours say what you mean.

How we prepare the round

We start two to four months before you go to market. It can be done with less time, but you negotiate worse.

What you receive when preparing the round

Everything an investor is going to ask for, ready before they ask.

Frequently asked questions

Do you find investors for me?

Our job is to get you prepared and negotiating well, not to act as a broker. When it fits, we introduce investors from our network and work with advisors who specialize in raising capital in your sector. What we do in every case is sit with you in each meeting where numbers and terms are discussed.

What valuation should I ask for?

The one you can defend with traction, market and comparables, not the one that minimizes dilution in a spreadsheet. We prepare a range with arguments and show you what happens in the next rounds under each scenario. A valuation that is too high today often turns into a down round tomorrow.

Do you work with SAFEs and convertible notes?

Yes. We model the effect of SAFEs, convertible notes and venture debt on the cap table, including discounts and caps, so you know how much you dilute in each scenario. If you plan to raise from US investors, we coordinate with your counsel on the structure they usually expect, such as a Delaware C-Corp.

What if the round does not close?

It happens, and it is wise to have a plan B from the start. That is why we work on runway in parallel: which costs you can adjust, which public or bank financing you can activate, and how much time each measure buys. Everything prepared remains valid for the next opportunity or for a sale.
