What does it actually take to get a pre-seed check written in 2024? Lucas and Luna sit down with founders who raised their first institutional money before having a product, a co-founder, or even a clear market. Each episode reconstructs the exact pitch, the numbers on the cap table, and the moments that made an angel say yes. Lucas presses for the unit economics that were actually in the deck; Luna asks how the founder dealt with the 40 rejections. This show is for the solo founder who has a slide deck but no warm intro — and wants to see how others crossed that gap. No success-porn, no generic advice: just the concrete mechanics of the first check, deal by deal. #PreSeed #IdeaStage #FirstCheck #AngelInvesting #SeedFunding #StartupCapital #FounderStories #PitchDeck #CapTable #VentureCapital #EarlyStage #StartupAdvice #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology #FundingStrategy #SoloFounder Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

    How Pre-Seed Founders Use SAFE Notes for First Funding
    2026/06/08
    In this episode of The Pre-Seed Podcast, Lucas and Luna break down the mechanics of SAFE notes—the most common instrument for idea-stage funding. Using the example of a fictional SaaS founder named Priya who raised $150,000 on a SAFE with a $5 million valuation cap and no discount, they explain valuation caps, discount rates, the difference between pre-money and post-money SAFEs, and why Y Combinator introduced the post-money version in 2018. They discuss common pitfalls like over-negotiating the cap, what happens if the company never raises another round, and how to use a SAFE without a lawyer by relying on YC's template. The episode closes with a practical takeaway: founders should focus on building traction, not optimizing terms. #SAFENotes #PreSeedFunding #YC #YCombinator #ValuationCap #DiscountRate #PostMoneySAFE #PreMoneySAFE #IdeaStage #FounderFinance #StartupFunding #ConvertibleNote #EquityFinancing #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ThePreSeedPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Pre-Seed Founders Find a Technical Cofounder

    How Pre-Seed Founders Find a Technical Cofounder
    2026/06/07
    In this episode, Lucas and Luna tackle one of the trickiest challenges for idea-stage founders: finding a cofounder with the technical skills to build your product. They break down the real numbers behind the search—why the average founder spends four to six months and talks to 40 to 60 people before finding the right match. Lucas shares specific strategies from successful technical cofounder matches, including how to assess a potential partner's real commitment, why equity splits should be time-vested, and the surprising value of building a small prototype yourself before you start looking. Luna challenges the 'just find a coder' myth and pushes back on how to evaluate complementary skills without falling for the 'idea person' trap. By the end, you'll know exactly where to look, what to ask in the first meeting, and how to structure the deal so both of you stay motivated through the pre-seed stage. #Cofounder #TechnicalCofounder #PreSeed #IdeaStage #EquitySplit #StartupFounders #Coding #Prototype #NoCode #Matching #Vesting #Business #Technology #Entrepreneurship #Pitching #FounderAdvice #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How Pre-Seed Founders Use Data Rooms to Close Investors

    How Pre-Seed Founders Use Data Rooms to Close Investors
    2026/06/07
    Lucas and Luna break down the pre-seed data room: what to include, how to organize it, and when to share it with investors. Using the example of a real SaaS startup that raised $500k with a three-page data room, they cover diligence basics for idea-stage founders who have little more than a prototype and a deck. Specifics include: financial model templates, cap table structure, IP assignment documents, and customer validation evidence. No fluff, just a playbook for turning a request for more info into a term sheet. #PreSeedFunding #DataRoom #InvestorDiligence #StartupFinance #CapTable #SaaSFounders #IdeaStage #PitchDeck #TermSheet #StartupLaw #IPAssignment #CustomerValidation #FinancialModel #SeedInvesting #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
