The people behind the startups you keep reading about.
News, stories, insights, and perspective from founders and investors across the US, Canada, and India. Every weekday.
CREDX Letters
A daily letter about the startup and VC world, written the way a founder would actually tell you about it. Funding is in there β every round across all three markets, pre-seed through growth, with the founder and investor named. But so is the pivot nobody wrote about, the thesis an investor won't say publicly, and the thing that's true but unsaid. No PR polish. No press-release phrasing. Just what happened and why it matters.

Why Read CREDX Letters
Stories, Not Announcements
Founder confessions, investor realities, and what actually happened behind the press release. We name people and tell you why they matter.
Three Markets, One Read
US, Canada, and India in a single letter. Most publications cover one. If you operate across them, you're reading three newsletters to get one picture.
Perspective You Won't Get Elsewhere
The contrarian read. The view that doesn't fit the consensus. What founders and investors actually think, not the version they say on stage.
Every Round, Not Just the Big Ones
Pre-seed through growth. The interesting story usually isn't the biggest cheque.
Honest About Everything
No paywall. No sponsored pieces disguised as editorial. Anything paid is labeled Partner content, every time. And we'll tell you when we get something wrong.
