Common Constraints

Capacity constraints

Most GP teams lack the dedicated IR bandwidth to systematically identify and contact their universe of qualified allocators.

Intelligence gaps

Identifying which LPs are actively deploying—and aligned with your strategy—requires data most managers don't have.

Placement agent economics

2-5% success fees and significant retainers, often without guaranteed outcomes or transparent reporting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to the questions fund managers ask most.

Are you a placement agent?

No. We are a technology-enabled coverage service that helps fund managers identify and engage institutional allocators. We don't take traditional placement agent success fees, don't provide investment advice, and don't manage LP relationships. You retain full control of your fundraising process.

How does the LP Universe Calculator work?

Our calculator gives you a real-time view of institutional allocators that match your specific criteria. Select your investment mandate and target regions to see relevant allocators, key decision-makers, and institutional composition. Enter your email to receive a detailed breakdown tailored to your strategy.

What regions do you cover?

We have global coverage and have secured introductory meetings with allocators across North America, Europe, Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and many more regions.

What happens with opt-outs?

We handle all unsubscribes immediately and permanently across our database. Your reputation is our priority.

Can we see the LP list before engagement?

Yes. We provide full transparency on your target list before any outreach begins. You approve every allocator we contact.

What types of LPs do you reach?

Our campaigns engage the full spectrum of institutional allocators: Public Pension Funds, Private Pension Funds, Insurance Companies, Family Offices (Single and Multi), Fund of Funds, Wealth Managers, Asset Managers, Private Banks, Endowments, Foundations, Government Agencies, and Banks.

Do you provide regulatory cover for marketing?

No. Unlike placement agents, we do not provide regulatory cover for marketing activities. We can only execute outreach campaigns in jurisdictions where your fund already has the appropriate regulatory permissions to market. It is the responsibility of the fund manager to ensure compliance with local securities regulations in each target region.

What makes you different from a placement agent?

Traditional placement agents are limited by their personal networks, charge high success fees, and offer no guarantees. We provide systematic coverage of your entire addressable market at a fraction of the cost—with guaranteed results.

How do you source your data?

Through a combination of proprietary research, public filings, systematic verification cycles, and continuous update processes. We maintain 98%+ deliverability standards.

How long until we see first meetings?

Onboarding for each client typically takes around 30 days, after which we begin executing outreach to allocators. Clients can expect their first qualified meetings within six weeks of the engagement start date.

Do you work with first-time funds?

Yes. We have specific expertise in helping emerging managers with debut funds, including strategies for positioning limited track record and emphasising team pedigree.

What's your guarantee?

We guarantee a minimum number of high-quality LP meetings or provide a pro-rata refund. Contact us for details.

What compliance standards do you follow?

We maintain GDPR and CAN-SPAM compliance, with automated opt-out handling and responsible data practices.

Do you offer a trial?

Yes. We offer a trial engagement over a defined short-term period, giving you the opportunity to evaluate our service and see results before committing to a longer-term partnership. Following the trial, you can choose to continue working with us or conclude the engagement—no long-term obligation required.
