A firm scorecard from the VC Agent-Readiness Census — 25 firms, five doors each, checked 2026-11-01. Official site: www.felicis.com
open_api)Verdict: Structured portfolio and stated focus areas — and the firm's own homepage says 85% of new founders arrive via network referrals.
Each intent is scored with one door-state, assessed from public official sources on 2026-11-01. Scoring: open_api 4 · partner_gated 2 · aggregator_only 1 · human_only 0 · unverified 0 (flagged).
| Intent | State | Route | Note | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Research | open_api | Official portfolio and team pages on felicis.com | Portfolio lists companies with stage (Seed/Series A-C) and sectors; homepage and Call for Startups page detail focus areas (AI, cybersecurity/defense, resilience/energy, health/bio) and process facts | www.felicis.com/portfolio checked 2026-11-01 |
| Pitch | human_only | — | Call for Startups says 'we want to hear from you' across named AI themes but publishes no application form/portal in the fetched page; homepage states 85% of new founders are from network referrals | www.felicis.com/blog/call-for-startups checked 2026-11-01 |
| Diligence | human_only | — | No published diligence checklist, template, required metrics or data-room guidance found on official pages checked; only thematic interest areas | www.felicis.com/blog/call-for-startups checked 2026-11-01 |
| Schedule | human_only | — | No public self-serve office-hours, event booking or intro-call route found on homepage; contact is human/referral-led | www.felicis.com checked 2026-11-01 |
| Track | unverified NOT A VERIFIED ZERO | — | No publicly documented applicant status portal, dashboard or response SLA found; cannot be established without submission | www.felicis.com/blog/call-for-startups checked 2026-11-01 |
Unverified means the state could not be established from public documentation — for most firms that is the track door, where firms rarely publish post-submission mechanics. It is reported as a documentation gap, not as proof that no door exists, and it is never presented as a verified closed door.
