01/ The Problem

Most funds run IR on borrowed time.

Below a certain scale, IR is something partners squeeze in between deals. The work compounds in only one direction: against you.

Without Praus

LP follow-ups that slip

A week, then a month, then quietly never.

+ The connective tissue

Plus the assets, tools, and tech that make all five pillars run together: agent-driven workflows, integrations into your stack (CRM, calendar, email, data providers), and the engineering work that keeps the system compounding without your team doing it by hand.

Why Praus

Three reasons funds pick us.

Flat fee. No carry.

No percentage of your raise. No success fee. Flat retainer that pays itself back through compounding leverage.

You own the engine

Database, outreach, CRM, communications, reporting — all of it lives inside your fund. Yours if we stop working together.

Engineered, not staffed

We don't sell hours. We build systems. The same operating layer the biggest funds have, sized for your fund.

05/ The Offer

The pilot is free if you're not happy with it.

We engineer the v0 of your IR engine in 30 days. You use it. If it lands, we continue under a scope-based retainer. If it doesn't, you don't pay.
