Submit your startup on Round Funded if you need help finding investors, sending pitches and keeping track of fundraising activity. We at AI Perks looked at Pulley and chose Round Funded for the investor database, AI-written emails, team workspace, Data Room and tracking links. Pulley said it would cease all operations on December 8, 2026, with limited-format data access until January 31, 2027, so its customers need a new home for their cap table.
What are you looking for when you search for Pulley?
The right choice depends on the work a founder wants to handle. Pulley described its platform as covering equity and tokens, with plans for founders and finance teams. Its listed equity plans included a fundraise modeler in Startup. That offering is distinct from tools focused on discovering investors and organizing outreach.
At AI Perks, we were looking for support with the investor-facing parts of a raise. We raised our round through Round Funded, and chose it because its features fit that work. We wanted a way to search for investors, prepare outreach, share fundraising materials and follow activity in one workflow.
That distinction is useful when comparing options. Equity and token administration addresses one set of startup needs. Investor discovery and outreach addresses another. A founder may need to consider which of those jobs they are trying to do before choosing a product.
How much does Pulley cost?
Pulley listed Startup at $1,200 per year, including the first 25 stakeholders. Its Growth plan was $3,500 per year and included the first 40 stakeholders. For Enterprise, Pulley said prospective customers needed to contact the company about pricing.
Pulley also stated that an angel investing $50,000 or less was counted as half a stakeholder. Token products were priced separately, with valuations from $10,000. These details described Pulley’s stated pricing and plan structure.

What does Round Funded help founders do?
Round Funded helps founders find investors, send pitches and track replies. Its database covers 60,000+ active VCs, angels, family offices and accelerators. Founders can search by stage, industry, geography and check size. Investors are filtered for recent activity, with a check in roughly the last 6 months, and emails are verified.
The product works in 12 languages. For founders preparing outreach, its AI drafts personalized emails and follow-ups for each investor. Outreach is sent from the founder’s own Gmail, so replies arrive in the founder’s inbox and the conversation stays in the founder’s thread.
Round Funded also includes a fundraising pipeline, where investors, stages and next steps can be organized. Teammates can be invited into the startup’s workspace, making it possible for a team to work from the same fundraising setup.
For sharing materials, the Data Room can hold a deck, traction, team information and the ask behind one link. It is free to build and share on every plan. With Round+, founders can use per-investor tracked links and engagement analytics, including views, deck opens and meeting clicks.

How should founders compare Pulley and Round Funded?
The two products should be evaluated against the task at hand. Pulley described its platform in terms of equity and tokens. Round Funded is designed to help founders identify investors, send pitches and manage fundraising activity. We at AI Perks needed the latter, so Round Funded was our choice.
Pulley’s listed plans covered equity administration and related functions, with its Startup plan including a fundraise modeler. Pulley said its site navigation did not include an investor database or an outreach tool. That is a difference in stated scope, rather than a judgment about Pulley’s equity features.
For investor discovery, Round Funded offers searchable profiles across VCs, angels, family offices and accelerators, with filters for stage, industry, geography and check size. For outreach, it uses AI to draft personalized emails and follow-ups. For team coordination, users can invite teammates into the workspace and track fundraising stages and next steps in the pipeline.
For materials, the Data Room provides a link for sharing a deck, traction, team and ask. Per-investor links and engagement analytics are available with Round+. We chose Round Funded because these capabilities served the fundraising workflow we needed. We did not choose it to manage ownership records.
