Who is ThatRound for?
Angel networks, investor syndicates, VCs and family offices investing in UK startups.
Founders come to us raising a round. You tell us what you're looking for, and we only put startups in front of you that meet it.
How do I join?
Investors join ThatRound by applying, and we come back to every application.
Fill in the short application form and we'll be in touch to give you an overview of the platform and answer any questions you have.
If we've already been in touch, you'll have a link from us by email instead. Follow it and create an account using the email address we hold for you, since that's how we connect you to your organisation.
What happens when I first log in?
Onboarding is five short steps:
Your criteria. A guided chat with our AI interviewer, in your own words rather than picking from lists. Around 15 minutes, and you can stop and pick it up whenever suits you
Matching strictness. How closely a startup has to fit beyond your essential criteria
Your fees. An upfront fee and a fee on a completed deal. Put 0 against anything you don't charge
Permissions. Two confirmations we need before matching starts: that we can check every startup against your criteria so only the ones that fit can apply, and that startups can see you're an investor on ThatRound
Deal flow email. Where your deal flow gets sent. It defaults to your account email, or you can use another one
You'll then land on your Matching preferences page to look over what the interview built.
Your deal flow starts empty and fills up as startups that fit your thesis apply. There's more in Your investment criteria and Matching strictness.
Do I have to pay anything?
No, there's no charge for investors.
You set your own fees during onboarding, and startups see them before they apply, so it's worth getting those right.
Can colleagues at my fund use it too?
Not yet. Multi-user accounts are coming, though we can't give a date.
In the meantime, your deal flow email can be a shared team inbox, so everyone sees what comes in even though there's one login.
What if I’m an individual angel investor?
ThatRound is built for syndicates, angel networks and funds, we don’t have individual angel investors on the platform. But if you’re investing solo and are looking to join a syndicate, you can reach out to Aligned Syndicate, which is powered by ThatRound. They’re open to applications from experienced angels.
