About Zalarma

Zalarma (zalarma.com) is an investor database for startup founders: 33,282 US startup investors (angels, VCs, micro-VCs, family offices, corporate VCs and accelerators) searchable by stage, check size, sector and state, plus a free list of 5 hand-picked investors for a founder's round.

Zalarma is built for founders raising a pre-seed, seed or Series A round, especially founders outside the usual Silicon Valley and accelerator circles who don't inherit an investor map from their network. It's organised around the questions founders actually ask: who invests at my stage, in my sector, in my part of the country, at my check size, and how do I reach them?
