Transform unstructured data from your inbox into an organized dashboard by simply forwarding an email
AngelList Relay is an AI-powered portfolio analyzer, driven by your inbox.
It can extract key details from investment documents and company updates, transforming unstructured data from your inbox into an organized dashboard by simply forwarding an email.
So, instead of manually going through documents and emails, AngelList Relay will do it all for you. To that end, it can generate AI summaries, emailing them to you within 5 minutes after you upload the appropriate documents.
Speaking of which (documents) – the tool can “handle” board consents, certificates of incorporation, convertible notes, participation notices, pro rata side letters, rights agreements, rights offerings, SAFEs, stock purchase agreements, stock transfer agreements, token warrants, voting agreements, wire instructions, investor rights agreement, certificate of incorporation, and right of refusal.
The tool supports more than 25 different terms that are parsed from company updates and investment documents. Also, it provides access to your entire team, with support for different permission levels.
Finally, you’ll get all your investments through an easy-to-grasp dashboard, providing fund and company-level insights.
