Hey that's a great idea mathaattack! You are right that an investment is just the very beginning of the investor-entrepreneur relationship. Thank you very much for the inspiration.

Hi,

Author here. I wonder if you are referring to the form to enter the data? The link to the form is https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1J99v2E-jYM8JlIUPvTPfyc5v_pt... (this is actually the link that this HN post is linked to :) you might have missed it).

Thanks a lot for your interest.

Hi ffceo,

Thanks a lot for your comment on FF. Feedbacks on investors are important for entrepreneurs, but unfortunately hard to find. I know too many entrepreneurs who spent too long time chasing investors who are unresponsive, unhelpful, or worst ("zombie investors").

The comments from you and nickpinkston above actually inspired me today to put together a little project called "Rate Our Investor" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11378769. It is a crowdsourced spreadsheet that collects entrepreneurs' feedback on investors. Hopefully you don't mind the plug =)

Thanks again for the inspiration!

The link to all the existing responses is https://goo.gl/pK8RFR. It may not have many entries at this moment, as it has just been launched =)

Purpose of this Form: to increase the transparency of the investors' world, so that entrepreneurs can identify the truly great investors from the rest.

Educated investors do extensive due diligence on startups before making a decision. Startups should do the same on investors too.

Thank you for your interest!
