Built by a founder, for founders
Launchpathio is the investor-facing operating system we wish had existed when we were raising our first round. Founded in 2021 in Seattle. Angel-backed. Founder-obsessed.
How David Okoro built the tool he needed
In 2021, David Okoro was trying to raise a pre-seed round for his previous startup. He had a working product, a reasonable deck, and a list of about forty investor names he'd scraped together from AngelList and Twitter threads. What he didn't have was any organised way to track the raise.
His cap table lived in a Google Sheet that a lawyer had made for him — and he wasn't completely sure it was correct. His deck was in four different PDF versions in a Dropbox folder. His investor list was split across a spreadsheet, an Airtable, and a note on his phone. He lost two warm intro opportunities simply because he forgot to follow up.
"I spent probably 30% of my time during that raise managing administrative chaos instead of talking to investors," David recalls. "I knew every hour I spent reorganising data was an hour not spent building relationships."
He didn't close that round. But he learned exactly what a fundraising operating system for first-time founders should look like. Launchpathio is that system — built for founders who are doing this for the first time, who don't have a team of lawyers and advisors, and who need to run a tight, professional fundraising process from day one.

Our guiding principles
Founder-first design
Every feature starts with a conversation with a first-time founder. We build for the person doing this for the first time — not for CFOs, not for late-stage deal teams.
Process over chaos
Fundraising success is mostly process. The founders who close fastest are not always the smartest — they are the most organised. We give you the process.
Transparent by default
We price transparently. We changelog everything we ship. We do not hide limitations in the free tier. If it matters to founders, we tell you about it.
