Feature Matrix

Your current workflow, column by column

By the time you reach the Catalyst column, the manual column feels like a liability.

Investor Workflow
Manual
Generic Tools
CatalystRecommended
Cap Table Management
4 hrs per update
Spreadsheet gymnastics. Version conflicts. "Which tab is current?" Every round requires a full rebuild.
Exports to static PDF
Carta or Pulley gets close, but board members receive a frozen snapshot. No permissions, no drill-down.
Live-synced, permissioned, audit-trailed
Every stakeholder sees their permissioned view in real time. Every change logged. Dilution modeler built-in.
KPI Dashboards
Monthly slide rebuild
Finance copies numbers into PowerPoint slides the night before the board meeting. CFO reviews at 11 PM.
Looker / Mode report
Powerful but requires a data engineer. Board gets a link that breaks if the query changes upstream.
Auto-refreshed RAG grid
ARR, NRR, CAC payback — pulled from your source systems, displayed with red-amber-green context, always current.
Document Sharing
Email attachments
"Here's the latest deck — ignore the version from Tuesday." No tracking, no expiry, no certainty they opened it.
Google Drive / Dropbox
Accessible but not purpose-built for investor diligence. No view analytics, no NDA gates, no activity alerts.
NDA-gated data room with view analytics
See exactly who opened which document and for how long. Auto-expire links. Full audit trail for compliance.
Earnings Prep
3-week scramble
IR team manually compiles QoQ comparisons, chases commentary from product leads, formats press releases.
Q4Inc / Notified
Solid for public companies but expensive, rigid, and disconnected from your internal financial data.
Integrated earnings calendar + live script builder
Analyst estimates, your actuals, commentary drafts, and the Q&A prep doc — all in one permissioned workspace.
Shareholder CRM
Spreadsheet of names
"Remind me — did we talk to Sequoia last quarter?" Investor relationships managed in someone's inbox.
Salesforce (repurposed)
Too generic. Sales-first object model. No concept of ownership stakes, voting rights, or investor tiers.
Ownership-aware investor CRM
Log every touch-point against the right investor, tied to their cap table position. Know who to call before your Series B.

Seen enough? Let's build your data room.

30 minutes. Live setup. No slides.

"Running IR for a public edtech company used to mean managing 14 different tools. Catalyst collapsed that into one living page. Analyst coverage went from 3 to 9 in 18 months."
