London-based Episode 1 invests in pre-seed & seed stage B2B software firms and includes success stories such as the car-buying comparison site Carwow, prop-tech unicorn Zoopla and many AI businesses such as Raft, Robin AI and Superlinked. When Episode 1 selected Betterfront to raise its third fund, it was critical for the team to demonstrate their track record spanning two funds and being able to tell a differentiated, data-driven story to potential LPs.
As we geared up for our third fundraise, our goal was to broaden our Limited Partner (LP) base by reaching out to more institutional investors. In our search for a comprehensive solution to enhance LP communication, we discovered Betterfront. What stood out for us was the platform's seamless integration of tools, making it a one-stop solution for our needs. Betterfront not only facilitated the consolidation of all necessary tools but also empowered us to showcase our extensive investment experience across two early-stage funds with a very attractive user interface.
One of the standout features of Betterfront was its robust track record analytics, allowing us to effectively communicate our success story to potential LPs. The platform's user-friendly interface made it accessible for both our internal team and invited LPs, contributing to a smooth and efficient experience. Utilising Betterfront helped us make a lasting professional impression, setting us apart in a competitive landscape.
Throughout our journey with Betterfront, the responsiveness of their team was a key factor in our satisfaction. Their prompt and helpful support enhanced our overall experience, reinforcing our confidence in the platform. Betterfront has truly become an invaluable ally in our fundraising endeavours, providing the tools and support needed to elevate our engagement with institutional investors. We look forward to continuing this successful partnership in future ventures.
