Ellty is a virtual data room platform designed for startups and investors. Built specifically for fundraising and investment workflows, it combines document sharing with analytics to show how investors engage with materials.
Overview
Ellty focuses on the needs of startup founders raising capital and VCs managing deals. The platform provides document tracking and secure sharing without the complexity of traditional enterprise data rooms. Features are tailored for fundraising use cases rather than general business needs.
How it works
Users upload fundraising documents - pitch decks, financial models, due diligence files - and share them through trackable links. The platform shows when investors view documents, which pages they spend time on, and how they navigate through materials. This data helps founders understand investor interest and prepare for meetings.
Features
Document analytics - Track investor engagement including time per page, download attempts, and forwarding behavior. Analytics focus on metrics relevant to fundraising such as which slides get most attention.
Data room organization - Structure documents for different funding stages and investor types. Set permissions by investor or document type. Manage access for due diligence processes.
Access control - Configure security settings appropriate for confidential fundraising documents. Add password protection, set expiration dates, and control download permissions based on investor stage.
Secure infrastructure - AWS hosting with encryption for sensitive startup data. Audit trails for compliance with investor requirements. No software installation needed.
Use cases
Startups use Ellty for pitch deck distribution, Series A data rooms, and investor updates. VCs use it for portfolio document management and secure file sharing with founders.
The platform offers free and paid tiers designed for different stages of startup growth.
