As a Founder/BD Pro Looking at This Stack

Yes, absolutely—but you'll need to layer tools because no single platform does the full workflow (though some are closer than others).

The Realistic Stack

Social Listening + Investor Monitoring:

  • MentionFox (free tier to start) catches tweets from investors discussing fintech/AI infrastructure in real-time. You can set alerts for specific investor handles, keywords, or both. The advantage here is speed—you're not manually scrolling T
