Investor insight
Seed-stage acceleration is the sweet spot for scouts and solo GPs. Deploy-frequency spikes and infrastructure buildouts at this stage usually precede the Series A announcement by 6-12 weeks. The window to get in before the round is competitive is narrow but real. Deploy frequency spikes indicate a product launch, rapid iteration on customer feedback, or a competitive response. All are potential indicators of product-market fit and interesting timing for investors.
