Early-Stage Startup Investor Data Room Structure

Most founders don't realize they need a data room until an investor asks for it. Then they panic and throw together a mess of random files.

This guide fixes that.

What's inside:

→ Exact folder structure

→ What early-stage investors actually care about

→ Must-have vs nice-to-have documents

→ What to include when you're pre-revenue

→ Minimum viable data room for pre-seed

→ Key metrics to track (even when they're tiny)

→ Red flags that kill deals

→ Platform recommendations

Built specifically for pre-seed and seed-stage startups. Not some corporate due diligence checklist you'll never use.

Stop scrambling when investors ask for details.

Build your data room right the first time.
