Feature Request
AI LP Outreach | 506c Specific

My Prompt in Decile Hub AI Tools
I believe we might not be challenging conventional LP outreach enough for 506c Start Funds. With funds like Brody using AI to close $100M in LP commitments and tools like ClawBot openclaw.ai we should be able to do this in an even more efficient manner with Decile. Please evaluate and provide direction. Our funds focus should be small and medium LPs. Large family office or institution is only nice to have but more likely in a second fund, not Fund I.


Decile Hub AI Response

Strategic LP Sourcing Analysis: AI-Enabled Efficiency for Fund I

You're absolutely right to challenge conventional approaches. The fundraising landscape has fundamentally shifted, and your Deep Tech thesis with proven returns deserves a modern, scalable strategy.


The Brody/ClawBot Model Analysis


What's Working:
- Data-driven targeting - AI identifies LP patterns across 100K+ profiles vs. manual research
- Personalization at scale - Custom outreach to 1,000+ prospects vs. 50-100 traditional targets
- Velocity compression - 6-12 month raises compressed to 3-6 months through parallel processing
- Warm intro automation - LinkedIn/network mapping finds 2nd-degree connections automatically


Your Competitive Advantages:
- ....x MOIC + ....x DPI - Top quartile returns that AI can highlight in every touchpoint
- $---+ follow-on capital - Concrete proof of deal quality and network strength
- Deep Tech timing - ....... is a macro tailwind (defense, infrastructure, manufacturing)
- Seed stage focus - Small/medium LPs want early access, not late-stage commodity exposure


Recommended AI-Enabled Strategy


Phase 1: Intelligent Archetype Mapping (Week 1-2)


Use AI tools to build hyper-specific micro-archetypes rather than broad categories:


Instead of: "Tech Executives"

Build:
- Former VP Sales at .......
- Ex-CTOs from defense primes now in advisory roles
- Supply chain software executives from recent acquisitions


AI Tools to Deploy:
- LinkedIn Sales Navigator + ChatGPT - Export 500+ profiles matching criteria, AI scores fit
- Harmonic.ai or Affinity - Maps your existing network to find warm paths to cold targets
- Clay.com - Enriches LinkedIn data with investment history, board seats, podcast appearances


Phase 2: Micro-Content Engine (Week 2-4)


Create AI-generated, thesis-specific content that attracts rather than chases:


Content Formats:
1. Weekly Deep Tech Deal Memo - Share anonymized investment thesis on ........ (builds FOMO)
2. LP Education Series - "Why ........ is the Next $10T Opportunity" (positions expertise)
3. Portfolio Win Announcements - Highlight follow-on rounds, DOC contracts, customer wins (social proof)


Distribution Strategy:
- LinkedIn posts (AI-optimized for engagement)
- Substack/Ghost newsletter to 500+ targeted prospects
- Twitter/X threads on ..........


AI Efficiency:
- Use Claude/GPT to draft 80% of content from your deal notes
- Repurpose one insight into 5 formats (post, thread, email, video script, infographic)
- Schedule 3 months of content in one weekend


Phase 3: Outbound at Scale (Week 3-8)


The New Outbound Playbook:


Traditional Approach:
- 50 manual emails/month
- 10% response rate
- 5 meetings
- 1-2 commitments over 6 months


AI-Enabled Approach:
- 500 personalized emails/month (AI-written, human-reviewed)
- 15% response rate (better targeting + personalization)
- 75 meetings
- 10-15 commitments over 3 months


Execution Framework:


  1. Segment by Warmth:
     
    • Hot (1st degree): Personal video + deck (manual)
  2.  
    • Warm (2nd degree): Intro request + custom one-pager (AI-assisted)
  3.  
    • Cold (3rd degree): Value-first email sequence (AI-generated)
  4.  
  5. AI Email Sequence (Cold Outreach):
     
    • Email 1: Share relevant insight ....
  6.  
    • Email 2: Portfolio company case study
  7.  
    • Email 3: Invitation to virtual office hours or webinar
  8.  
    • Email 4: Direct ask with social proof (other LPs in their network)
  9.  
  10. Tools Stack:
     
    • Instantly.ai or Smartlead - Send 500+ personalized emails/day without spam flags
  11.  
    • Lavender.ai - Scores email quality before sending
  12.  
    • Reply.io - Multi-channel sequences (email + LinkedIn + calls)
  13.  
Phase 4: Event Leverage (Week 4-12)


Instead of attending conferences, create micro-events:


  • Virtual Deep Tech Dinners - 8-10 qualified LPs, portfolio CEO guest speaker, monthly
  • Industry Related Summit - 50-person virtual event, 3 portfolio companies present
  • LP Office Hours - Weekly 30-min slots for prospects to ask questions (builds pipeline)
AI Efficiency:
- Use Calendly + Zapier to automate scheduling
- GPT generates follow-up emails and meeting summaries
- Riverside.fm records events, Descript transcribes, AI creates highlight reels


Your Specific Small/Medium LP Archetypes (AI-Optimized)


I'll now generate 6 hyper-targeted archetypes (3 small, 3 medium) with:
- Exact LinkedIn search queries
- AI-powered outreach templates
- Warm intro pathways
- Content hooks that resonate

Bug report - There's a typo in the PDF of the newest SF investment lead agreement.

Management fees table, row 2 says `$3,0001,000-...` but should be $3,000,001 I think.

I have a feature request for Custom PACT links. Can you do something to make it less trivial for the recipient to see/change the min PACT investment number? There's some gamesmanship for us in setting the minimum at one value and the UI low at a higher number to try to pull their investment up. Many of our LPs are technical, so it's super obvious for them to see our actual minimum and change it. Doing something like hashing the params or using a redirect URL would do the trick.
Here's a scrubbed example URL from a custom PACT: https://inception.decilehub.com/pacts?pid=xxxxxxxx&tar=xxxxxx&l=150000&m=250000&h=500000&min=100000&dgrid=xxxxx

Feature Request: Centralized LP Communications Timeline

Problem:
As a fund manager, I need to track all communications sent to my Limited Partners over time. Currently, I have to check individual LP contact records or search through my Gmail to piece together what I've communicated and when. This makes it difficult to:
- Quickly reference what I've told LPs previously
- Ensure consistent messaging across updates
- Maintain a clear audit trail of fund communications
- Prepare for LP calls or meetings

Requested Feature:
A centralized "LP Communications" view or timeline that shows all emails sent to LPs in one place, with:
- Date sent
- Subject line
- Recipients (individual or bulk)
- Ability to click through to see full email content
- Filter by date range, recipient, or type of communication
- Search functionality

Use Case Example:
Before sending a quarterly update, I want to quickly review what I said in my last 2-3 LP communications to ensure consistency and avoid repeating myself. Or before an LP call, I want to see our complete communication history at a glance.

Current Workaround:
Manually searching Gmail sent folder or checking individual LP records one by one.

Thanks!!!

Lock the closed stage (and selectable stages) in fundraising pipelines. My LPs keep looking at the deck and getting put back into automated sequences, which makes me (and Decile) look amateurish.

I like to review the viewing analytics of files to find LPs who are actively engaged.  It would be helpful to have a button next to their names to quickly email them vs. having to go back to a different screen to initiate an email.

2025 Tax Planning
Is there a way to easily see if an LP has not updated their tax information on Decile Pro?  It would be nice to send an automated email to the GP if any tax information is outstanding vs. finding out when the K-1s are being prepared.

Has anybody built an automation that takes an Ai generated transcript and summary from a call and flows that information into Decile Hub to populate into a pipeline? It could either create a new opportunity within an existing pipeline, or add to an existing opportunity? We have a step here where there is manual data entry or a need to hire an intern that I am trying to eliminate.

Feature Request:
As a fund manager with a team (or even without), I'd like to be able to manage tasks within the DecileHub platform.

Explanation: Within the Investor or Connector or Deals pipelines, we have stages and can annotate next steps etc. However, across all pipelines, as a fund, I struggle to maintain tasks and sequencing. Project/Task management. I can manage this separately via Asana or Monday or Trello but this would improve my ability to stay on the platform with the added advantage that at some point, the tasks are linkable/mentionable by a Unique ID. So let's say I assign a task - 'Move LP Bruce Wayne to a different pipeline' .The task could generate a clickable to take the assignee directly to Bruce Wayne in the current pipeline.

It would be great to put password protection options on the files when sharing the link, and also for you to be able to share a single link to a file without having to create a separate folder (and not providing access to an entire data room).

I'd like to be able to have a dashboard showing the top 10 LP prospects, with an indicator of where they are in the sales pipeline.  Data, such as the number of visits on a file, duration of visits to a file, clicks on a newsletter, number of emails opened, etc., would drive the dashboard to prioritize the top 10.

While I am happy to continue testing the AI deal memo generator, I have way too many items to note on the UX of this feature to put them here in a useful structure.
Can we please provide an ability to have the AI generate its answers to questions but keep it hidden so that the humans can actually do the diligence, cross-check with the AI's response, and then consolidate it for the memo?
OR
Allow for the AI to slurp in files from humans who did the diligence and then provide a memo to answer the questions (instead of scraping info and potentially hallucinating).
In this user story, for example, 3 individuals do their diligence and put their notes into google docs or spreadsheets answering all questions listed in the deal memo. Once everyone submits their work, then an admin can generate the memo.

Right now the generated memo is inadequate or inaccurate, and I feel like in Health/MedTech that's going to kill us more than in other verticals.

Hi, there is a mistake in the 

AI Toolkit

7. Create your Fund Projections:

The investible amount does not take in to account Decile Hub's 1%/year fee. So from 2 MM it assumes 1.8 MM available, in fact, it should be only 1,6MM

Hi Hub team,

Small feature requests:
1. Being able to bulk change other fields, namely newly created string fields. I created a few new fields and would like to quickly setup my table, but I need to be manually changing hundreds of fields
2. Being able to use the User dropdown choice that exists in the "Assigned" field, in new custom fields.

DecileHub Hack/Workaround:  If you have the problem of scrolling through contacts (ex: Directory) and you have more than 250 people and you get stuck at 250 people, and at the top of the window you see something like "250 Shown", a work-around that will let you scroll down further is to scroll left across the columns until you get to the first columns and then it will load another 250 so it will then say "500 shown."  If you get to 500 and it gets stuck again, follow the same instructions and you can eventually see everyone, after you do this for all batches of 250 people

Bug with AI chat: once we enter something in the chat, the text of it still remains after hitting enter, which forces the user to have to erase the previous prompt before asking the following up question/prompt. It may be the New UI glitch. Also I would add something like thinking while generating a response.

I'm not sure where to report this "legal" bug, but the Management Company SLA agreement has typos in Section 5. 

Section 5 mentions Section 2 four times, such as... 
"If any one of the Services outlined in Section 2 are not fulfilled by the applicable party identified in Section 2, ..."
Those references to Section 2 should be to Section 3 instead. 

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure this is correct.

UI improvement: in Kanban view, when the user is dragging a card from a stage at the bottom of a long list into a stage with few/no cards, they have to scroll all the way up to the top, would be better to just drop onto the stage column immediately adjacent to the card

 I am attempting to add new questions to the Deal Memo Settings but am experiencing several issues - they are not movable once added, the "Enhance with AI" toggle either disappears or doesn't appear in the first place. Also curious if there has been any discussion or progress around adding the functionality of exporting memos to Word as well as PDF. Thanks in advance for your help!

It would be great to have an AI-powered enrichment feature that automatically adds public web data to each organization and contact — such as profile images, social media links, and other relevant information. I would be willing to pay for this type of enrichment.

Additionally, for Deals, it would be very useful to have the option to link not only a person but also an intermediary organization responsible for bringing the deal.

It would also be valuable to have the ability to build AI-enabled workflows that use custom prompts for processing and enrichment.

When operating in Germany, France, and similar markets, it’s essential to use the correct form of address for each person. In German, for example, you must distinguish between Sie (formal) and du (informal) and include academic titles where applicable. For instance, Dr. Daniel Müller should be addressed as Herr Dr. Müller.

Improvement to LinkedIn integration
Team, while the LinkedIn plugin is great for activating prospects, I'm finding it to be quite manual to monitor if a lead I reached out to accepted my invite.  I've seen many invites get accepted, but the prospect doesn't respond to my initial note.  It would help to have the system automatically put cold/warm linkedin outreaches into a Connection accepted stage once that event is triggered.  Thank you!

We are enjoying the new update. However it removed an ability we were using. In the previous window we were allow to assign to no one a deal. We use this when a deal is declined and we had nothing else to do to it. Now there seems to be no way to assign to no one a deal
