Whether youโre learning about a founderโs latest pivot during a coffee chat, capturing partner meeting decisions, or organizing portfolio updates from a dozen conversations, Quill thrives on the messiness of work and enables you to be your most human and creative self in every conversation. Quill is for more than just VCs with customizeable templates for dozens of roles, like Notion for conversations. Quill provides a powerful toolkit to make sure everything is organized and actionable. Share selectively, set next steps on autopilot, or keep things private for your own reference. Plus, with deep integrations into tools like Notion or Asana, managing the complexities of startup life has never been easier. Quillโs local-first approach means no bots, no cloud dataโjust you in control. Trusted by leading investors like Lerer Hippeau, 500 Startups, and Mosaic Ventures, Quill is designed to take your venture work to the next level. Learn more at quillmeetings.com.
