Over the past few weeks we've received a number of questions from Entrepreneurs asking us what OPENdeals looks like to Angels. While we wish we could let you in to take a look around, we need to keep it restricted to SEC accredited investors.

What we can do is give you a peak behind the scenes of what OPENdeals looks like to Angels


The Main Page

200804171936

Angels can use this page to quickly see:

  • How many deals have been submitted by entrepreneurs in the last 24 hours
  • Deals posted from other Angel groups. Angel groups often would like to invest in a company, but do not have enough interest from their group to provide the total amount that the entrepreneur is looking for. When this happens they post to OPENdeals letting other Angels know that they are looking for additional investors.
  • How many deals are in the Angels local vicinity

Deal Directory

The Deal Directory is where investors can browse through submitted deals by options such as date, location, number of views, and industry.

Summary Information

On the Deal Directory each company includes summary information.

This includes:

  • Company name
  • The number of views the deal has received (you can also see this number when you log into Angelsoft)
  • The rating other investors have given the deal
  • Whether or not a video is included
  • The One Line Pitch
  • Industry
