Pre-Raise
Site Audit
We help high-growth startups avoid costly missteps before a raise by auditing your site for risk, credibility gaps, and missed opportunities so you can move forward with confidence.
Support Your Raise
Your website is often the first place investors, partners, and press will go. If it's underperforming, technically or strategically, it can quietly tank momentum. Venture Shape offers a pre-raise audit to catch problems early, fix weak spots, and ensure your site supports the raise, not undermines it.

Why It Matters
Founders often underestimate the silent damage of a misaligned or sloppy site. This audit saves you from sunk costs, rushed rebuilds, or credibility hits at the moment when every impression counts.
Timing & Cost
Most audits are completed in 7-10 days. Fixed-fee pricing starts at $2,500 depending on site complexity and urgency.
