AI and investment: what are the new rules of the game?

Duration: 24:00


🧾 Analytical Summary

VC work is being rewired by AI: broader/faster deal sourcing, compressed market analysis cycles, and tighter feedback loops with founders—yet team quality and relationship building remain the edge. For founders, AI sharpens storytelling and reporting but raises the bar to stand out.

🧠 Inside a VC team

  • Sourcing: web/db scraping finds more pipelines (what’s visible).
  • Market work: TAM/comp/transactions synthesized in hours not weeks—analysts must sanity‑check and fight bias.
  • Feedback: faster no/yes, better tracking of “ones that got away,” reusable learnings.

👩‍💼 For founders

  • Better pitch prep and investor mapping; quicker data requests and portfolio reporting (prompts over ERP/BI).
  • Downsides: “too perfect” decks—differentiation is harder; confidentiality risks; relationship‑building matters more.

⚖️ What doesn’t change

  • VCs invest in teams; charisma, trust, network opening, and execution still decide outcomes.

Useful AI doesn’t replace diligence—it frees time for the human conversations that create conviction and post‑deal value.

🏢 Viewpoint: Competitors

The data deluge cuts both ways. Firms will invest in bias checks, model governance, and proprietary data moats to keep an edge.
