Assess any deal in minutes

Drop a pitch deck or URL. Get a structured investment assessment across six dimensions — instantly.

All your investments, one place

Import from any platform. One dashboard showing every company, amount invested, and current status.

Weekly AI portfolio briefing

AI agents scan news every week and tell you what it means for each investment — not just what happened.

Agents working while you sleep

Autonomous agents monitor competitor moves, market shifts, and portfolio signals — 24/7, without you asking.

Core capabilities

Three things Carina does better than anything else.

Structured deal assessment

Upload one pitch deck or paste a URL. Carina analyses it across six dimensions — market size, competitive moat, team-problem fit, financial model, business model defensibility, and red flags. A consistent framework every time, so you can compare deal five against deal two.

Weekly portfolio intelligence

Every Monday, AI agents scan news, LinkedIn hiring signals, competitor activity, and regulatory changes across every company you've backed. You get a plain-English briefing: what happened, what it means, what to watch. 90 seconds to read. Nothing important missed.

Unified portfolio command centre

Import investments from Odin, SeedLegals, Vestd, or direct — and see everything in one place. Company status, invested amount, latest signal, follow-on opportunities. A portfolio view you'd actually want to open.

Always-on AI agents

Carina's agents run continuously in the background — monitoring competitors raising, portfolio companies hiring, market shifts, and regulatory news relevant to your investments. You get alerted when something material happens, not when you remember to check.

How it looks

Built to show you what matters.

Every screen in Carina is designed around one question: what does this mean for me as an investor?

01 — Deal Assessment

Structured analysis from a single upload.

Drop a pitch deck, paste a Notion link, or add a website URL. Carina assesses the deal across six investment dimensions and surfaces red flags — in under three minutes.

  • Scores each dimension with a written rationale
  • Identifies what the founder underplayed or obscured
  • Flags structural issues with the business model
  • Comparable to having an analyst review every deck

Helio Energy
Seed · £500k raise · CleanTech · Added 2 mins ago
7.2
/ 10 overall
Investable with caveats
Strong market + team. Moat needs challenging.
Market8.5
UK commercial solar market growing 31% YoY. Government mandates credible tailwind. TAM claim well-evidenced.
Moat5.8
Proprietary installation process described vaguely. Unclear what stops a larger player replicating. Ask founder directly.
Team8.8
CEO ex-National Grid, CTO has 3 relevant patents. Strong domain expertise for this specific problem.
Financials7.0
Unit economics defensible at scale. 18-month runway with this raise. Revenue projections optimistic but not implausible.
Business model7.5
Recurring maintenance contract model creates predictable revenue. Hardware margin thin but software layer improves over time.
Red flags⚠ 2
Valuation not justified in deck. One named customer is also an advisor — potential conflict undisclosed.
🚩 Red flag detected
Lead customer (MidlandsCo) appears as an advisor with equity stake. Relationship not disclosed in the risk section. Requires clarification before investing.
02 — Portfolio

  • Track investment amount, round, and status per company
  • See the latest AI signal for each company at a glance
  • Filter by sector, vintage year, or signal status

03 — Weekly Digest

What happened. What it means. What to do.

Every Monday, Carina's AI agents scan news, competitor moves, hiring signals, and regulatory developments for every company in your portfolio. You get implications, not just headlines.

  • AI reads between the lines — not just what happened
  • Tells you if a signal is positive, a risk, or an opportunity
  • Recommends action where relevant (e.g., follow-on, GP conversation)
  • 90 seconds to read. Nothing important skipped.

Featured in Sunday Times gift guide. 3 new wholesale partnership mentions on LinkedIn.
Carina's read
Strong Q4 setup. Network effects with wholesale compounding. No action needed — watch for follow-on opportunity in next round.
Primer
Payments
↔ Opportunity
Checkout.com cut 100 staff and pulled from 4 markets this week.
Carina's read
Competitor weakness opens enterprise pipeline for Primer. Worth flagging to the GP — this is a sales acceleration moment they should capitalise on.
Wayve
Autonomy
⚠ Watch
UK government AV safety regulations published. Commercialisation timeline extended 12–18 months per analysts.
Carina's read
Regulatory delay extends runway needs. Mixed long-term (certainty) vs short-term (timeline). Revisit valuation expectations for next round.
Monzo
Banking
↑ Positive
10M UK customers reached. German expansion announced. Profitability guidance reaffirmed.
Carina's read
Network effects compounding at scale. German market adds TAM without cannibalising UK. No concerns this week.

The problem we're solving.

"I have 22 investments across four platforms. There's no single view. I find out what's happening at my portfolio companies from LinkedIn, not from anything I pay for."

FAQ

Your questions answered.

Generic AI gives a generic response — no framework, no consistency, no comparability across deals. Carina runs every deck through the same structured six-dimension framework, built for early-stage investing. You get a consistent score every time. You can compare deal ten against deal two. You can't do that with a blank prompt.
Odin, SeedLegals, Vestd, and direct investments via CSV. Carina tracks your entire portfolio regardless of how or where the deal was structured — you're not limited to Carina-managed deals.
For each portfolio company: news mentions in UK and international press, competitor news and moves, relevant hiring signals from LinkedIn, regulatory or market developments affecting the sector. Each item includes Carina's interpretation — positive signal, risk, opportunity, or something to monitor. Delivered Monday morning. Roughly 90 seconds to read.
Pricing will be a flat monthly subscription — no percentage of your investments, no per-deal fees. Waitlist members get early access and a founding-member rate, with plenty of notice before any paid tier begins.
