Abaca is a web app that benchmarks entrepreneurs, investors and resources using a common language, and then matches them up like a sophisticated dating site.

Abaca is based on Village Capital’s investment-readiness assessment platform. When founder after founder would say things like, “I wish I had this years ago”, we knew it was time to make our investment-readiness assessment available to entrepreneurs everywhere. Abaca was born.

Meanwhile, investors would express frustration with being inundated with dozens, hundreds or even thousands of cold contacts from companies well outside of their investment criteria.

Using its unique assessment and matching algorithm, Abaca helps reduce time and frustration on both sides of the funding conversation.
