The complete fundraising platform
We built CQ because we've raised capital ourselves. We know the pain of cold outreach, scattered tools, and 18-month fundraises. CQ is the platform we wish we had—covering all 8 stages from LP discovery to close.
Our Team's Track Record
Level the playing field
Large funds with established networks close in months. First-time managers spend 18+ months cold-emailing LPs who will never respond.
CQ is the only platform covering all 8 stages of fundraising—from LP discovery and AI matching to cold email, data rooms, NDA signing, and commitment tracking. No more juggling 6+ tools.
The result? Our customers find qualified LPs in days, not months. They close 2x faster and spend their time on what matters: building great portfolios.
Erik Ford
Founder & CEO
Erik has been on both sides of the table—as a fund manager who deployed $455M+ through Renn Global and as an operator who built three companies to successful exits totaling $800M+.
He built CQ because he watched first-time managers struggle with the same LP outreach and data room challenges that shouldn't be barriers to raising capital.
