What is Kavan?

Where startup founders and investors actually find each other

Kavan connects two kinds of people: founders building a startup, and investors looking to fund one. Normally, finding the right person means cold emails, guesswork, and hoping someone's profile isn't exaggerated. Kavan skips all of that — it verifies who you both really are, then its AI figures out who you'd actually be a good fit for, and introduces you to just that one person at a time.

Real people, not made-up profiles

When you sign up, you log in with your actual LinkedIn (founders also connect GitHub). You don't just type in your own bio — Kavan pulls live data straight from those accounts, so nobody can fake their experience, skills, or work history.

One good match, not a hundred to sift through

Most platforms hand you a giant list and leave you to figure out who's worth messaging. Kavan does that work for you — AI agents look at your idea (or your investment criteria) and hand you the one person who's genuinely a strong fit. Not right? Pass, and it shows you the next best one.

From your first "hello" to a real deal

Once both sides say yes to meeting, a private chat opens up — no email back-and-forth needed. When you're ready to talk terms, Kavan's AI can even draft a starting term sheet based on what you actually discussed, so you're not writing that from a blank page.

In short: Kavan is matchmaking for startups and investors — verified, focused on one real fit at a time, and built to actually go somewhere instead of sitting in an inbox.

Built for both sides of the table

One platform, two real jobs to do — Kavan doesn't make you pretend otherwise.

For Founders

  • Connect LinkedIn + GitHub and post your idea — Agent 1 scopes your MVP and roadmap for you.
  • Get matched with one exclusive, real investor at a time, not a cold list to cold-email.
  • Unlock meetings once your MVP link is live and verified reachable.
Post your idea

For Investors

  • Set your firm, focus sectors, and ticket size — in whichever of 10 currencies you actually write checks in.
  • See one exclusive top-ranked startup at a time, backed by real GitHub activity, not a pitch deck alone.
  • Raise your hand on any founder-requested meeting, confirm, and move straight to a term sheet.

Why join

What you actually get

Not features — the real difference it makes for you.

If you're a founder

  • Investors come to you once you’re ready — no more cold emailing them.
  • You get noticed for your real work (GitHub, your MVP), not just a fancy pitch.
  • You’re told exactly what to build next.
  • No wasted meetings — the investor already likes your idea before you talk.

If you're an investor

  • No inbox full of random pitches.
  • You only see real startups with real work already done.
  • You’re shown one strong match at a time, not a big pile to sort through.
  • A fast path from a first chat to paperwork, with AI help writing the term sheet.

Why Kavan feels different

The same principles running under every match, every time.

Multi-agent matching

A team of AI agents verifies, ranks, and pairs founders and investors automatically — no manual sourcing on either side.

One exclusive match

No endless browsing. Each side sees a single, MVP-ready top match at a time — quality over an infinite feed.

Verified, not invented

Every profile is backed by live GitHub and LinkedIn data, and every MVP link is checked reachable. No fabricated stats.

Deal-ready tools

Once both sides opt in: real-time messaging, meeting confirmation, and an AI-drafted term sheet from your actual conversation.

Privacy & Trust

Built to protect you, not just promise to

What actually happens with your data — not a vague "we take privacy seriously" line.

Your identity stays private until you both say yes

Neither side sees who the other actually is — just a confidential match — until a meeting is confirmed on both ends. No browsing to peek at who's who.

Delete your account anytime — and it's actually gone

One confirmed click permanently removes your account, ideas or shortlist, matches, meeting requests, and every message you’re part of. Nothing lingers behind.

Only you — and whoever you’re matched with — can see your data

Your private details aren't visible to random visitors, or to other users you haven't actually been matched or messaged with.

How it works

From sign-in to term sheet

STEP 1

Verify

Sign in with real LinkedIn (and GitHub, for founders) — your identity is confirmed, not just typed in.

STEP 2

Post or set criteria

Founders post an idea and MVP link; investors set focus sectors and ticket size.

STEP 3

Get matched

Agents rank and pair you with one exclusive top match — the other side's best real fit.

STEP 4

Connect & close

Message, confirm the meeting once both sides opt in, and generate a term sheet when you're ready.
