General

This board is visible to investors too — it's the platform's general, public layer.

Preview: Enterprise Discussion Board

Sample content — preview

Enterprise-only — investors never see this board, even with a seat. A private space to talk through assessment gaps, deal room prep, and anything you wouldn't want a prospective investor reading before a negotiation.

Posting here is what fires an unlock where one applies — nobody has to reply for that to count.

Preview: Social Lounge

Different from the discussion boards — this is where "Book a meeting" actually leads, whether an investor books from a deal room or an enterprise books from browsing investor profiles. Pull up to a table, and video connects automatically with whoever else is seated there.

Free for Credential-holding enterprises. Included in the Investor Seat for investors — no separate charge.

This is a visual mockup, not a working feature — live video and movement need real-time infrastructure beyond what this demo file can run on its own.

Preview: Free, Enterprise Plus & Enterprise Premium

The free tier stays sufficient to get funded — full stop. Everything above it is presentation, insight, or infrastructure for a bigger raise, never information you'd need to compete fairly.
