The assessment
How Flash analyzes your startup.
The 14-day clock starts when you click the investment button unlocked in Flash Intelligence after scoring 75 or above. Complete the Flash Intelligence assessment first. A score of 75 or above qualifies you for investment review. The subsequent 14-day process covers verifying your claims, completing diligence and closing a supported investment.
Independent thinking. Decisive capital.

What stage is the company at?
This decides which questions come next.
