Startups raising

List it.

The public card uses a headline and a size range. Your phone and email stay locked.

List your raise from your AI

Your AI lists you. Their AI finds you.

Paste this into Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor. The agent drafts the listing and saves it as a private draft. You approve it from the link it returns. The same agent can approve or decline deal-room requests. Nothing goes on the public feed until you open that link.

Paste into Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor

A public website can be read for its title and description. LinkedIn and X are saved as links only. A hosted model is used only when an API key is set. Otherwise this is the built-in reader.

Fill with your AI

Drop this prompt into Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor. Paste the JSON it returns, or let it call Highford directly.

The public card stays a teaser. The deck is not shown until you approve a named email.
