About Foxsminds
Building a fairer path to capital
Foxsminds is a fundraising platform that connects founders in AI, Web3 and frontier tech with the investors who back them — one place for the whole fundraising lifecycle.
Our story
Fundraising has always favoured founders with the right network. A warm introduction could open a round; the absence of one could close it. We started Foxsminds in 2026 to change that — to make the entire fundraising lifecycle, from deck upload to wire transfer, run on one transparent, secure platform.
We're still early. In our first months, a few hundred founders and around ninety accredited investors across 20+ countries have joined, and roughly $8M has been raised through the platform so far. Our matching connects startups with the angels, micro-VCs, venture firms and family offices whose thesis, stage, check size and geography actually line up — and that community grows every week.
We're a company based in Scotland, building for founders everywhere and the investors who believe in them.
What we value
Founder-first
Every decision starts with whether it helps a founder run a calmer, faster raise.
Trust by design
Security, transparency and clear terms are built in, not bolted on later.
The right match
We optimise for fit over volume — the right investor beats a hundred cold intros.
Open access
A free tier and transparent pricing so capital is not gated by who you already know.
Meet the team
A small, senior team obsessed with helping founders close their rounds.
