Pitch us

Pitch us

Builders in Fintech has covered fintech founders every week since 2023: more than 2,300 funding rounds, a newsletter, a podcast and a daily LinkedIn readership of operators, investors and founders. Sometimes we go further than coverage and back the company. If you are building in fintech and want Michele involved, this is the place to start.

Three ways to work together

Cash. Angel tickets in pre-seed to Series A rounds, anywhere in the world. We invest alongside a lead, never as the lead.

Work for equity. Hands-on help where it is most useful: product, go-to-market, fundraising strategy, introductions to investors and partners. Structured as an advisor-style equity grant with vesting, so both sides stay aligned over time.

Media for equity. Coverage and distribution across the newsletter, LinkedIn and the podcast, on a schedule agreed together. Packages are agreed case by case and converted into equity at your round's valuation, vesting as the media is delivered.

What we look for

• Fintech, broadly defined: payments, lending, banking, wealth, insurance, crypto and digital assets, infrastructure, regtech, and AI applied to any of these.
• Pre-seed to Series A. Later stages are welcome for media for equity.
• Worldwide. We read pitches from every region and publish about all of them.
• A founder who can explain in two sentences what the company does and why now.

What happens next

We reply to every pitch within ten days. If there is a fit, the next step is a 30-minute call. If there isn't, we say so, briefly, so you can move on.

Disclosure

Any stake or agreement is disclosed on the company's page, on every article about it, and on the methodology page. Editorial coverage is never for sale: a company we back gets the same treatment as any other, plus a label saying so.
