IdeaVault is the confidential place to bring any idea — a bakery, a princess parlor, the next big app — and get connected with angel investors who can fund it. Fast.
Every kind of idea is welcome
No pitch decks required. No warm intros needed. Just your idea.
Create an account and submit a short application: what your idea is, why it matters, plus any prototypes or photos. It stays confidential.
The moment you submit, we log a timestamped record of your idea and lock the details behind an NDA that investors must accept before they can read them.
Angel investors browse and select ideas for funding, an interview, or a closer look. When one picks yours, we connect you — fast.
We can't hand you a patent — nobody online honestly can. What we do give you is real, practical protection built into every submission:
For strong legal protection on a truly novel invention, also consider filing a provisional patent. We'll point you to resources.
A neighborhood spot combining fresh bread with a concept that keeps customers coming back daily…
Full description, financials & prototypes stay locked until an NDA is signed.
Browse teasers across every category, unlock the ones that intrigue you, and flag them for funding, an interview, or further consideration. We handle the fast, warm introduction.
It takes five minutes to submit. Protection starts the moment you do.
No — and anyone claiming otherwise online isn't being straight with you. We provide a timestamped record, confidentiality, and an NDA gate. For a novel invention, pair that with a provisional patent.
Creating an account and submitting is free. IdeaVault only earns a small success fee if an investor selects your idea for funding, an interview, or further consideration.
Truly anything — a bakery, a kids' party concept, a food truck, an app, a physical invention. If you believe in it, submit it.
When an investor flags your idea, you're both notified immediately and a 72-hour connection window begins so momentum doesn't stall.
