Investor

What This Skill Does

The Investor skill empowers your OpenClaw agent to function as a professional-grade venture capital analyst and portfolio manager. It embeds a rigorous, multi-faceted investment framework directly into the agent's reasoning process. Whether you are performing due diligence on an early-stage startup, analyzing financial unit economics, or weighing the complexities of a term sheet, this skill ensures your AI agent adheres to the same high-standard principles used by top-tier investment firms. It systematically evaluates team quality, market size (TAM), and defensibility, while providing critical checks against common red flags like high burn rates or opaque customer metrics.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw CLI:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/ivangdavila/investor

Use Cases

• Startup Due Diligence: Streamline the process of verifying founder claims, evaluating cap tables, and conducting technical code reviews.
• Portfolio Monitoring: Use the skill to track burn rates, analyze unit economics (CAC vs LTV), and provide strategic advice on follow-on funding.
• Term Sheet Analysis: Decode complex legal structures including liquidation preferences, pro-rata rights, and board governance configurations to ensure favorable positioning.
• Strategic Market Evaluation: Assess whether a startup's 'why now' timing is compelling and whether its business model is robust enough to survive different market cycles.

Example Prompts

1. "Analyze this startup's pitch deck. Given their 18-month runway and high CAC, what are the most critical questions I should ask the founders during our next diligence call?"
2. "Review this term sheet for a Series A. What are the potential pitfalls in the proposed liquidation preference and board composition structure?"
3. "Evaluate the defensibility of this SaaS business. Does their moat rely on network effects or switching costs, and how does that compare to the current public market comparables?"

Tips & Limitations

• The Investor skill acts as an analytical engine; it is best used to augment human judgment rather than replace it. Always verify sensitive financial data independently.
• Use the 'Red Flags' checklist as a standard protocol for every investment interaction to avoid bias.
• Remember that public market comparables often lag behind private valuations; factor this in during overheated market cycles.
• The skill provides insights into governance and waterfall structures, but for final legal binding documents, always consult with legal counsel.
