Finally here: Self-service VC tracking

In just two weeks after launching this newsletter, we identified founders who went on to raise $40m over the next year, and we’ve continued to provide valuable signal on early stage founders since.

Now we’re taking the next big step towards helping VCs leverage Twitter data by releasing self-service custom tracking.

You can now select any segment of of VC Twitter accounts (for example “pre-seed” and “robotics”) or provide your own list. Starting the next morning, you’ll get a daily Poach-style summary of the founders those accounts follow, along with an attached CSV of all the raw data.

Check it out! There’s no minimum number of accounts to follow and you can get started in 1-2 minutes.

Does Poach actually work?

The backtesting above is only from our first few issues. Of course, most of the benefit is behind the paywall now; we highly recommend upgrading to paid to see the other 2/3 of founders each issue (and the engineers, designers, and investors followed by top VCs).

And again, you can find even more founders (and more relevant founders) by focusing on the specific segment of VCs in your space; our new custom tracking is perfect for that. Give it a try, it only takes a couple minutes to set up and can start expanding your dealflow immediately.
