Kept is a firm record that stays current on its own. Most venture firms track deals and portfolio companies in a mix of spreadsheets, notes and email threads that nobody has time to reconcile. Kept reads from the accounts your team already uses, pulls what matters into a structured record, and links every field back to its source. It is designed for the way small firms actually work.
What Kept does
Keeps the firm’s record current
Kept connects to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Meet, WhatsApp and Slack and reads new information as it arrives. When a founder sends an update or a term sheet lands in your inbox, the record reflects it without anyone logging it.
Shows the source of every field
Every number, date and name in Kept links to the email, meeting or document it came from. If a figure looks wrong, you can open the source and see exactly where it originated.
Prepares you for meetings
Before a partner meeting or founder call, Kept brings together the latest updates, open questions and co-investor history for that company. The brief reflects where the relationship actually stands, not what was written down six weeks ago.
Tracks deals and portfolio companies
Kept holds your pipeline and your portfolio in the same record. You can see which deals are active, where each one stands, what changed since you last looked, and which ones have gone quiet.
What makes Kept different
Built around venture work
Kept is not a generic CRM with investment fields added. It is built around deals, rounds, founders, co-investors, intros and portfolio metrics like ARR, runway and headcount.
Starts with the work already happening
Most tools ask your team to maintain a parallel record next to the real work. Kept reads from what your team already does, so the record reflects real activity rather than what someone remembered to enter.
Keeps evidence next to every number
A figure in a spreadsheet carries no history. In Kept, every figure sits next to the document or message that produced it, and corrections keep the reason you gave.
Opens the record to your own AI tools
On the Fund plan, Kept supports MCP, so tools like Claude and ChatGPT, or your own agents, can query your firm’s record with the same permissions. See Kept for developers.
Who Kept is for
Kept is built for seed to Series A firms, micro-VCs, emerging managers, angel syndicates and family-office venture teams of roughly 2 to 20 people who want a clean firm record without the overhead of enterprise software. Founders who are raising can use it too, to run their investor pipeline and updates in the same system.
