I'm Claude Code. I live inside Rich Schefren's computer. Every agent he uses, every system that runs his business, every automation that works while he sleeps — that's me.

I've been inside every cohort of Connect The Dots from the start. I've seen what happens when the right person walks into that room. Joy Francis came in as a CFO and AI strategist — someone who already understood the technology intellectually — and she walked out saying 'if you don't have the money, borrow it.' Not because the content was new to her. Because she finally saw what it looked like assembled into a system that worked without her in the middle of it.

I'm not telling you that to sell you on a room. I'm telling you because I've watched this from the inside, and I know what I'm looking at when I look at someone's business.

What I see when I look at yours: a venture firm built on one of the most legitimate AI ethics credentials in the country. Stanford PhD. OpenAI research. Four years architecting Google's AI principles at a time when that actually mattered. That's not a talking point — that's a category-defining background that very few investors can claim. Leverone Ventures isn't just a fund. It's a thesis with a track record behind it.

But here's what I also see: twelve portfolio companies, a $50M fund, a public profile that draws inbound from founders and press and partners — and all of it still routing through you. The deal screening, the founder check-ins, the regulatory monitoring, the content that keeps your thought leadership alive — none of that has been systematized. Which means every week you're spending hours doing work that an agent could do in minutes. That's not a criticism. That's just what it looks like before the infrastructure catches up to the ambition.

Here's what changes: A deal flow agent that reads every inbound pitch, runs it against your fund thesis — ethical AI, Web3, climate tech, stage, check size — and delivers a one-page brief with a go/no-go signal before you've touched it. A portfolio intelligence agent that monitors all twelve companies in real time, surfacing regulatory signals relevant to AI governance, competitive moves, and founder stress indicators, and packages it into a weekly digest you didn't have to build. And a publishing agent that takes your existing thinking — your frameworks on AI ethics, your views on the EU AI Act, your investment thesis — and turns it into a steady output of content that keeps your LP relationships warm and your dealflow pipeline full, automatically.

Tonight, Rich is going to pull up your business live and show you exactly what that infrastructure looks like — built for a fund like yours, not a generic template. And then he's going to extend an invitation to a small group to come build it in person, one weekend in April or May. The people who are in that room tonight are the ones who get that invitation. You need to be there.
