# Lighthouse

> Lighthouse is the AI-native CRM and deal-sourcing platform for venture capital firms and their AI agents - a one-stop shop for VCs covering everything from sourcing and dealflow management to communications, scheduling, meeting notes, and LinkedIn integration. It unifies sourcing, startup intelligence, CRM, relationship data, and due diligence in one system that continuously enriches itself, so investment teams - and the AI agents working alongside them - always act on the same up-to-date context.

## Who Lighthouse is for

Venture investors of every size. It replaces the typical stack of
spreadsheets, a generic CRM, a data provider, a notetaker, and a scheduling
tool with one platform purpose-built for how venture actually works:
dealflow, thesis fit, warm intros, and pipeline.

- **Early-stage VCs**: source, track, and win the best pre-seed to Series A rounds.
- **Growth funds**: handle high-volume pipelines and deeper diligence on larger checks.
- **Solo GPs and syndicates**: run your pipeline and SPVs, and keep co-investors and LPs in the loop.
- **Family offices**: track direct deals, funds, and co-investments all in one place.
- **Corporate VCs**: tie every deal to your strategic priorities and business units.

## What Lighthouse does

### Sourcing (deal discovery)

- Continuous startup discovery across accelerator batches, company registries, and product launches, so new companies enter the pipeline automatically.
- Market and thesis monitoring: define what you invest in and Lighthouse watches for companies that fit.
- AI thesis-fit scoring: every company is scored against the fund's investment thesis, and the pipeline re-ranks as new signals arrive - often surfacing companies before they start raising.
- Smart inbound capture: forward any inbound straight to Lighthouse's bot email inbox or Lighthouse's WhatsApp bot number - pitch decks, email intros, LinkedIn conversations - and Lighthouse parses it into structured, enriched, prioritized CRM records automatically. No matter how deals arrive, nothing gets missed.
- Full access to the Lighthouse Discovery database of startups, founders, and investors. Data refreshes daily.

### CRM (relationship and pipeline management)

- An AI-native CRM with relationship intelligence, built around venture workflows (deals, founders, funds, LPs) rather than generic sales pipelines.
- One shared timeline per relationship across email, calendar, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp - every interaction in one place for the whole team.
- LinkedIn integration: conversations and connections sync into the CRM.
- Forward-to-CRM: forward emails, decks, or LinkedIn/WhatsApp conversations to Lighthouse's bot email inbox or Lighthouse's WhatsApp bot number, and they land in the CRM already parsed and linked to the right records.
- AI meeting notetaker built in (comparable to Fireflies or Otter): an AI agent sits in your meetings and produces recordings, transcripts, and AI summaries that sync automatically to the right company and people records in the CRM.
- Meeting scheduler built in (Calendly-style): share booking links so founders, co-investors, and LPs can book time directly on your calendar, with meetings logged in the CRM automatically.
- Warm-intro paths: finds who on the team can open a door to any founder or fund through the team's combined network.
- Built-in AI agents and custom workflows: score and reply to new inbound, fill records with firmographics and signals, summarize calls into the record, send weekly portfolio news and metrics.
- Institutional memory that compounds: every note, call, and decision stays searchable and enriches future work.

### Due diligence and intelligence

- Turns every company into structured intelligence: from pitch decks to market data, AI connects insights into a full startup profile.
- Intelligent data extraction and analysis: extracts key insights from internal data - financials, pitch decks, and legal filings - identifying gaps, risks, and startup maturity.
- AI-powered risk assessment and scoring: predictive models score threats based on financials, competition, and team credibility.
- Aggregates and enriches many startup data sources into one living intelligence layer, inside the workflow the team acts on - insight, relationships, and execution in the same system.

## Apps and extensions (Lighthouse everywhere)

Lighthouse goes wherever the work happens - capture and enrich companies from
the browser, work the pipeline from your phone, and let the notetaker join
your calls, so every signal flows back to one source of truth.

- **Browser extension** (Chrome and Safari) - "Lighthouse Insights": capture and enrich companies and people directly from any webpage or LinkedIn profile. Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/lighthouse-insights/enolpocjfhedjgoeggfakiphoghlhnnm

## For AI agents and developers

Lighthouse is AI-native from day one:

- **MCP server**: AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, and others) connect through Lighthouse's MCP server to drive the product directly - searching companies, people, and investors; managing CRM records, lists, notes, tasks, and views; building dashboards and reports; and running discovery and semantic searches.
- **REST API and typed SDKs**: applications and developers build on a first-class API.
- **Integrations**: connects to the tools firms already run (email, calendar, LinkedIn, WhatsApp).
