Timing. Relevance. Relationships.

Fundz is the only platform that reads more than a dozen real‑time signals all day, every day, so you know about new funding, new executives and new contracts within minutes of them happening, not days or weeks later like the databases you’re used to. It then combines the signals on each company, scores every company against what you offer, and weaves in your own network, so you discover new accounts first and work existing ones better.

Each morning you get the ones worth your time right now: who to reach, why now, and who you already know there. Now it answers in Claude too: ask for today’s leads, then write the note in the same window.

About

Hone is a San Francisco-based A.I. start-up founded by Austrian entrepreneur Moritz Stephan that builds autonomous A.I. agents called "Engines" designed to independently manage and complete specific business goals over extended periods. These agents learn company systems, processes, and workflows to achieve objectives such as improving customer retention, reducing procurement costs, or increasing sales conversions. The company implements security measures including decision simulation, human approval requirements, and comprehensive logging to ensure responsible deployment of A.I. agents with access to sensitive systems.

Fundz sees it the moment Hone raises, hires an exec or expands, usually minutes after it happens, and tells you who to reach.
