How to approach
Framing and angles for outreach
Pitch framing
A founder should lead with why the company is forming a new category at the earliest stage, especially if it sits at the intersection of software, healthcare operations, and measurable system-level improvement. The strongest pitch should make the market insight and founder-market fit clear without over-claiming traction.
