Let’s say I have an idea for a startup, how do you help me get funded, exactly? When would it be beneficial to go to CORL over doing your own STO? What kind of companies does CORL look to work with?(u/Kyzermf)

Corl only invests in companies that are making revenue, so companies at the ideation stage will not be accepted.

Launching an STO takes more time, energy, and money than applying for funding from Corl. Polymath makes it easy to create and deploy the security token per your specifications, however, there is still a significant cost for marketing, distribution, underwriting, legal, and other professional fees associated with performing a private or public raise, whereas there is no cost to apply to Corl. Moreover, the time it takes to obtain regulatory approval in your jurisdiction can take several months, whereas it takes 10 minutes to apply with Corl. If you trying to make the decision of launching your own STO or applying for funding from Corl, I would recommend weighing the pros and cons of both. Generally speaking, Corl will only invest up to $1 million USD in a single venture, so if your needs exceed that, you may consider a syndicate capital raise if conducting a full STO is not feasible given your circumstances.

Corl aims to invest in companies with minimum 30% gross margin, in-revenue for at least 6 months, minimum 10k in monthly revenue, and a minimum 2% MOM growth rate. We are sector agnostic, however, many of the companies that have applied for funding can be classified as e-commerce and SaaS.
