    Hi HN We built a tool to help founders understand how modern fundraising (with safes) works, and how much dilution you can expect when raising money. The project is open-source. The code is a mess right now, but it'll get better I promise. You can also help with that. We didn't build this to make money. We genuinely did it because we were looking for it, and couldn't find it. We're in fact in the process of fundraising for a company, and at first glance the process looks simple. Just an excel sheet will do! But then the more we dug into it and tried different simulators, the more we realized…

    21st Fund▲151

    I built this after struggling to find relevant grants and fellowships myself. The project started at the EF Hackathon as a credit underwriting and matching agent for founders. After speaking with founders and students, it became clear that discovery itself was the bigger problem. Most people do not know what grants or non-dilutive options exist for them. So I iterated and built 21st.fund. You describe who you are and what you are building, and the tool surfaces relevant grants, fellowships, and programs.
