I am raising [ROUND] for [COMPANY], which [WHAT IT DOES AND FOR WHOM]. Key facts: [TRACTION, TEAM, MARKET, USE OF FUNDS]. The weaknesses I already know about: [WEAKNESSES].

Act as a sceptical investor. List the [10] toughest questions you would ask me, including the ones that probe my weaknesses. For each question give me:
- why they are asking (the concern behind it)
- the trap, meaning what a weak answer sounds like
- a strong answer outline: acknowledge the concern, bridge to the facts, land one message

Use only my facts. Where a good answer needs data I have not supplied, tell me what I need to find out. Finish by naming the one question most likely to end the meeting and how I should prepare for it.

Fill in the [PLACEHOLDERS] before sending. Never paste real customer data into an AI tool you don't control.
