The problem

Why most pre-seed fundraises take 9 months

You are not failing because your startup is bad.

You are failing because you started raising before you were ready.

Burned warm intros do not come back. Investors who passed early rarely look twice. And the 9 months you spent chasing the wrong checks? That was runway. Gone.

Fundraising changed in 2026. Investors now benchmark you against companies hitting $100M ARR in under a year. The bar moved. Your playbook should too.

What's inside

The 7-day pre-seed fundraising course

One lesson per day. 10 to 15 minutes each. No fluff, no filler, no recycled threads.

Day 1

Get Investor-Ready

The 8 dimensions investors evaluate before they even look at your deck.

  • Team. Traction. Trust. Tempo.
  • TAM. Technology. Terms. Timing.
  • Score yourself before they score you.
Day 2

Target the Right Investors

Most founders pitch the wrong list. Build yours with AI in under an hour.

  • Thesis fit over logo chasing.
  • Scouts, angels, micro-VCs, pre-seed funds.
  • The research prompt I use every week.
Day 3

Write a Pitch Investors Actually Read

Cold email still works. It just needs structure.

  • The 6-line cold email template.
  • Subject lines that open.
  • Why warm intros are overrated in 2026.
Day 4

The 10-Slide Deck Structure

The exact slide order that gets to yes or no faster.

  • Problem. Market. Product. Traction.
  • Business model. Team. Ask. Vision.
  • What to cut. What to never include.
Day 5

The 3-Email Outreach Sequence

Systems for scale. Presence for trust.

  • Email 1: the opener that earns a reply.
  • Email 2: the follow-up that does not beg.
  • Email 3: the close that respects their time.
Day 6

Due Diligence and Data Room

Be ready before they ask. Never send a data room cold.

  • The pre-seed data room checklist.
  • Cap table, financials, customer proof.
  • What to share now vs after a term sheet.
Day 7

Close the Round. Negotiate the Terms.

The last week is the most expensive. Protect your cap table.

  • SAFE vs priced. When each makes sense.
  • Valuation conversations without losing the room.
  • How to create urgency without faking it.

The framework behind the course

The fundraising framework that closes rounds in under 5 weeks

AI Mind.Athlete Body. Artist Soul.

Fundraising breaks founders who only have hustle. The ones who close fast run a system.

AI Mind

Systems find investors while you sleep.

AI agents research the right investors, personalize outreach, and track every follow-up. You stay present when you sit across from the person writing the check. Systems for scale. Presence for trust.

Athlete Body

Your body is your infrastructure.

A fundraise is a sprint inside a marathon. Weeks of back-to-back meetings, rejection, due diligence, and legal reviews at midnight. Business starts with biology. Train like it.

Artist Soul

Storytelling closes the deal.

Knowing when to pivot the narrative. Knowing what your company is worth and holding the line. Telling a story the investor cannot forget. The creative instinct closes the deal that the data opens.

El talento ya esta, la vision ya esta, y cuando se suma estructura, claridad y el conocimiento correcto, el estandar sube rapido.

The course is the system, not the slides. Day 1 to day 7, every lesson ends with one thing I could do that afternoon. By week three I had my list, my deck, and my first three meetings booked.

Pre-seed founder. Course graduate. Closed pre-seed in 5 weeks.

I had read every fundraising thread on LinkedIn before this. None of it stuck because none of it was a system. The 8 T's gave me a scorecard I could actually run myself against.

Angie Carrillo. Founder. Angel investor. AI-native.

I have reviewed 1,675+ fundraising decks. I have written 30+ angel checks over the last decade. I have raised my own rounds. I have taught 100+ founders this framework.

This course is the 7-day distilled version of what I teach. Not the light version. The clean version.

Questions, answered

Before you sign up

Is this really free?

Yes. Time is more important than money. I protect yours. The course is free because I want more founders to close faster, and because the best students become the best investors, operators, and founders I work with later.

How much time do I need per day?

10 to 15 minutes. Each lesson is designed to be read on one coffee. Every day ends with one small action you can take that same afternoon.

What if I am not raising yet?

Even better. Build the system before you need it. Founders who prep early close faster when the window opens.

Will I get spammed?

No. One email per day for seven days. After that, one email per week. Signal not noise. Unsubscribe in one click.

Can I work with you after?

Yes. Founders who complete the course and score high on the Investor Readiness Quiz can apply for an AI-powered deck review or a 15-minute strategy call.

How is this different from other fundraising courses?

Most courses teach tactics. This course teaches a system. AI Mind for automation. Athlete Body for endurance. Artist Soul for the story that closes. And the voice is the voice of someone who has been a founder, an operator, and an angel investor. No ghostwriter. No recycled threads.
