The rules of
the room.

Who can use gigi

The gigi website is open to anyone. Participation in the network is curated and limited to founders, aligned investors, and partners who have been accepted through the access request process. There is no fee to apply, and there is no membership fee for founders.

You must be at least eighteen years old to submit an access request or to use any part of the service that requires you to share personal information.

Requesting access

When you submit the “Start with gigi” form, you confirm that the information you provide about yourself and your company is accurate to the best of your knowledge. We make access decisions based on what you tell us, and on signal from our existing network.

We do not guarantee that any request will be accepted, and we do not have to explain a decision. If your request is unsuccessful, you are welcome to try again later.

What gigi provides

gigi provides AI-assisted profile preparation, deck feedback and introductions between founders, investors and approved partners. These services are provided by gigi on a best-efforts basis. AI output can be incomplete or wrong; review it before relying on it.

Nothing on this site or inside the network is investment, legal, tax, or financial advice. Treat every conversation as a starting point and take your own professional advice before making decisions that matter.

gigi is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Introductions are not investment recommendations and do not remove your responsibility to perform your own diligence.

Onboarding and introductions

Your onboarding call is with gigi, an AI. Audio is not recorded. With your explicit agreement at sign-up, before a browser call, or verbally, we keep a written transcript to build your profile. You can withdraw that permission during the call. You can skip the call and complete your profile in the dashboard, where you can approve and correct suggested answers.

Every introduction requires both parties to opt in before contact details are shared. Funders agree to provide a reason and useful feedback when passing; that feedback may be shared with the founder. Partners require team approval before introductions start. A profile status or introduction is not a promise of funding or suitability.

Profile statuses may be calculated automatically. You can request a human review in your dashboard or contact humans@gigi.vc. Separate permissions and service availability apply to acquisition, angel and LP introductions and any paid services.

AI and model training

gigi may use intake and relationship data to operate and improve gigi's own matching and outcome models. This excludes raw and derived data from Google Workspace APIs, which we use only for the connected features you authorise as described in our Privacy Policy. We do not sell intake or relationship data, provide it for another organisation's model development, or permit it to train a third-party or external AI system.

How members are expected to behave

gigi is built on trust. By participating you agree that you will:

• treat other members with respect, in private and in public,
• keep confidential anything another member shares in confidence, including pitches, financials, and personal circumstances,
• never use the network to spam, recruit, or pitch in a way that abuses the privileged access it gives you,
• disclose conflicts of interest before making or accepting an introduction.

We can suspend or remove anyone who breaks these expectations, at our discretion.

Acceptable use of the website

You agree that you will not:

• scrape, mirror, or otherwise systematically extract content from the site,
• attempt to access accounts, data, or systems that are not yours,
• submit information you do not have the right to share, including personal data about other people without their consent,
• use the site to send unsolicited commercial communications.

Content and intellectual property

The gigi name, the gigi mark, the iridescent identity system, the writing on this site, and all other materials we publish belong to us. You can reference and link to public pages, but please do not copy, modify, or republish without asking.

Anything you submit to us through the application form remains yours. By submitting it, you give us permission to use it for the purpose of evaluating your application and operating the network.

No warranty, limited liability

The gigi website and the network are provided on an “as is” basis. We do not warrant that the site will be available without interruption, that information is free from errors, or that any introduction will lead to a particular outcome.

To the extent permitted by law, gigi is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including lost profits, lost deals, or lost opportunities, arising from your use of the site or your participation in the network.

Ending your relationship with gigi

You can leave the network at any time. We can also end your membership if you breach these terms or if it is no longer appropriate for you to be in the network. If we do, the obligations around confidentiality and acceptable use survive your departure.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as gigi evolves. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be communicated to active members directly.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute that cannot be resolved between us will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
