About this tool
Funding announcements follow a fairly predictable structure — amount, round, lead investor, use of funds, a founder quote — but getting the phrasing and formality right from scratch still takes longer than it should when you're mid-raise and busy with everything else. This tool takes your raw funding details and builds them into a properly structured press release with a headline and placeholder quote section, following the same conventions investors and journalists expect to see. It's more specific than announcement-to-press-release, which handles any type of news rather than being tuned to funding rounds specifically.
Frequently asked questions
What details should I include for the best result?+
At minimum, the amount raised, the round type, and the lead investor. Adding use-of-funds information and any notable participating investors makes the release more complete.
Will it fill in a fake company name or quote?+
No, it uses clearly marked placeholders for anything you didn't provide, like your company name or a founder quote, so you can fill those in accurately.
Can I use this for a seed round or later-stage round too?+
Yes, it works for any round type — just specify the round (seed, Series A, Series B, etc.) in your input and the structure adjusts accordingly.
