Israeli Startup Investment Analyzer
Verified94/100Generate a structured investment memo for an Israeli startup deal: market and timing, team assessment, a sanity check of the metrics (ARR, growth, burn, runway), valuation and dilution math, key risks, and a focused list of diligence questions to send the founder. Built for angel and VC investors who need to evaluate an inbound deck or data room fast. The real edge: it catches Israel-specific landmines generic tools miss, like Innovation Authority royalty and IP-out restrictions that can shrink or block an exit, the Delaware flip, a broken Section 102 option plan, and founder vesting. Use when an investor asks to evaluate a deal, screen a startup, review a pitch deck, write an investment memo, or prepare diligence questions. Do NOT use for founder-side formation and fundraising (israeli-startup-toolkit), employee option taxation (israeli-stock-options-tax), or public-market stock analysis (tase-stock-analysis).

Angel and VC investors get a flood of inbound decks and have minutes to decide which deals deserve a call. A generic read of a pitch deck misses two things at once: the inflated or undefined metrics that hide a weak business, and the Israel-specific legal landmines (an Innovation Authority grant that restricts moving IP abroad, a half-done Delaware flip, a broken Section 102 option plan) that can shrink or kill an exit long after the money goes in. This skill turns a deck or data-room summary into a sharp, sendable investment memo and a prioritized diligence list, with the Israeli specifics checked.

Changelog
Substantive update: the surtax is now two layers (3% general plus an additional 2% on capital-source income), Innovation Authority interest and manufacturing-abroad rules corrected, and a new export-control section added (DECA, Defense Export Control Law, and the Encryption Order repeal). Also added the Patents Law service-invention waiver test, the Registrar of Pledges search, and founder secondary. The cap-table script was rewritten: pre vs post-money pool timing, a new stacked-SAFE command, and a corrected pro-rata calculation.
