Really fun to be back to Collision Conf in Toronto to discuss the Seed to Series A landscape and be reminded of the incredible founder talent coming out of Canada!

No better co-panelists than Sara Thomas Deshpande from Maven and Neha Khera from 7am Ventures, who helped share practical insights into raising Series A in this environment:
– Slope matters more than intercept
– Design your storyline and process for the new reality
– Frame your unique “secret” to scale a $10B business

🚀 Excited to share our big news! We've successfully raised a $3.7M fundraising round co-led by Grace Isford at Lux Capital and Exponent Founders Capital (Charley Ma & Mahdi R.), with participation from Y Combinator, Blank Ventures. We are also backed by successful founders like Bill Clerico & Immad Akhund as well as other amazing operators in the industry

🌟 Introducing our groundbreaking products: CorShield, the world’s first SMB fraud model, and an innovative business verification (KYB) solution. These tools are set to redefine risk management for SMBs, leveraging LLMs to transform the way enterprises like Mindbody and Stax Payments handle risk at scale

💡 The journey of managing SMB risks has been complex. With over 400 million SMBs worldwide, the challenge of analyzing unstructured data for onboarding and monitoring is significant. Coris is on a mission to modernize this, making risk management seamless and efficient

🔍 Our solutions:

👉 CorShield: A revolutionary approach to prevent business impersonation and first-party fraud right from sign-up, minimizing false positives
👉 MerchantProfiler: Offering real-time KYB, sanctions screening, and deep insights into SMBs in 46 countries
👉 Fuzio: A central platform for SMB risk management, streamlining data consolidation, custom rule setting, and automated actions

📈 Already, we've helped verify over 150,000 SMBs and can provide data on over 330 million global businesses, significantly reducing operational costs and accelerating onboarding processes by 5x for our enterprise clients

✨ "Coris has been instrumental in managing our merchant risk strategy across 40+ countries...reducing our manual onboarding processes by 80%" says one of our valued customers

We’re huge believers in the impact that coaching can have on helping founders scale and are often asked “when is the right time to engage a coach?”

🔸 At the earliest stages of company building, founders should surround themselves with domain experts, mentors, peers, and advisors before engaging a coach. Unless there is co-founder conflict, there is no point until you have product-market fit.
🔸 There is a crucial time in fast-growing startups when feedback doesn't flow swiftly enough to the founders; it's at this juncture that coaching can unlock the most value.

Thanks, Jason Gore, for joining us last night and sharing insights on demystifying founder coaching, building co-founder dynamics, and more at the new Blank Ventures HQ!
