What Phronel is

WHAT'S PHRONEL?

The intelligence layer beneath every early-stage decision.

Our mission is to become the FICO-equivalent intelligence for early-stage companies, and the trusted standard of intelligence.

Phronel is how institutions access Caplia's standardised view of early-stage companies: where a company is today, how ready it is, and how that is changing. You bringyour mandate, and Phronel will bring the evidence.

Purpose built for early-stage

Intelligence designed specifically for evaluating early-stage companies, developed with academics, experts and leading institutions.

Contextual to your institution

Add your own thesis, criteria and evaluation edge. You use our intelligence without sharing the same view as everyone else.

Private and secure by design

We never learn from your criteria, or from the sensitive company information your decisions are made on.

Consistent and evidenced

Consistent, evidenced outputs and reporting that you can trust and share with confidence, to augment every decision.

Private AI infrastructure built with industry leaders and academics.

The private alternative

The secure, private AI for early-stage company analysis.

Public AI tools were never built for founder data, term sheets, internal memos or IC debate. Phronel is. Your criteria and company information never leave your control, are never seen by anyone else, and are never used to train Phronel. Run standardised, evidenced reports and ask questions about any company you are assessing.

Public AI tools were never built for founder data, term sheets, internal memos or IC debate. Phronel is. It is the alternative built for early-stage decisions: none of your information leaves your control, founder information is never seen by anyone else, and Phronel never learns from it.

Run standardised reports that are evidenced, and ask it questions about the company in question.

Hosted on our own infrastructure

Phronel is hosted on Caplia's own infrastructure in the UK, so your data stays inside an environment that we control and secure.

Never learns from your criteria or company data

Your thesis, criteria, prompts and the founder information you share are never used to train or improve Phronel. They are used for your analysis only, so your edge stays yours.

Run it on your own servers

Firms can deploy Phronel inside their own perimeter, so not even Caplia can see their data.

Market structure

Every finding traces to its source. Your mandate, your decision.

Evidenced intelligence

Intelligence you can trust, because it shows its working.

Phronel's foundations are built specifically for early-stage companies, in collaboration with academics and leading institutions. Every analysis follows the reasoning experienced investors and programme leads already use, and every conclusion is tied to the evidence behind it.

Early-stage specific foundations, not generic web knowledge.

Every finding traces back to its source, so your team can check it.

Grounded in the Caplia Readiness Index, a common standard for assessing company state, developed with Oxford Saïd Business School.

Consistent foundations. Your criteria and judgement make the decision.

Two ways in

You decide where you use Phronel.

Run Phronel from the Caplia Enterprise Platform, or embed it agentically into the workflows your team already lives in. Same intelligence, same privacy, wherever you work.

Enterprise platform

The Caplia Enterprise Platform

A dedicated workspace for your team, with Phronel built into intake, pipeline, portfolio and programme views. Everything in one place, configured to your mandate.

Agentic

Embedded in your existing workflows

Bring Phronel to where decisions already happen: in Chrome, in Slack or Teams, into your CRM through the API, or inside your own agents over MCP. Building your proprietary tech stack? Power it with Phronel and keep your prompts private instead of using OpenAI, Anthropic or Gemini.

Pricing · agentic access

We sell decisions, not seats.

Pay as you go, or choose a monthly plan and draw on it from any surface. Unlimited users on every plan. Caplia Enterprise Platform plans are priced separately.

Analysis creditsOne credit is one new company analysis. Runs wherever you already work: in Chrome, Slack or Teams, through the API, or over MCP inside your own tools.

Research tokensIncluded with every monthly plan for the research your team would otherwise do in Claude or ChatGPT: questions, market and sector research, thesis work, memo drafting and deep research across many sources, all kept private.

How far research tokens goTokens measure how much Phronel reads and writes. Longer, source-heavy work uses more.

~10KtokensA research questionA question answered with a few sources, like a typical chat.

Continuous monitoringA point-in-time analysis starts ageing the moment it's written. Put a company on monitoring and it stays current instead. It draws from the same monthly pool, so you can move between one-off analysis and continuous coverage without changing your plan.

A fund monitoring 100 portfolio companies spends 10 credits a month doing it.

Putting Phronel inside your own productIf Phronel is going to reach people beyond your own team, the rights tier depends on how far it travels. Each is a multiplier on the credit price, with a minimum monthly pool.

What isn't a creditAPI access on a Caplia Platform plan connects your systems to your own programme data: applications, cohorts, companies you already work with. That's included in the Platform plan and costs no credits. Adding teammates never costs anything either.

One rule, everywhereEvery new company analysis costs one analysis credit, whether you trigger it from the Platform, the API, MCP or the browser extension. General research and deep research draw on your plan's research tokens.
