02 / Solution

From “I think I want to launch a fund” to launch-ready in four weeks.

Most first-time GPs spend months figuring out what they are building before they build it. They talk to three lawyers and get four different answers. Then build documents that do not match their LP base.

03 / How It Works

Four stages. Four weeks. Launch ready.

Pick the path that matches what you are building. Each week ends with something concrete in your hands, and the whole process is mapped below.

A single-deal vehicle, ready for capital

You bring the deal. We settle the structure, build the documents, and set up the investor experience, so the only thing left for your lawyer is a short final review.

How it works
Week 1Structure decision

We start with your deal: who is investing, from where, and on what terms.

You get a clear recommendation on structure and jurisdiction, with carry, fees, and waterfall settled up front.

Every decision lands in a single structure brief your lawyer can act on immediately.

Week 2Document build

Your subscription agreement framework and LP onboarding checklist are built around that brief.

Your data room outline and investor communication templates are drafted in the same pass.

The result is a near-final document pack, not a pile of blank templates.

Week 3LP readiness

Your data room goes live and your subscription flow is set: how investors commit, sign, and fund.

Closing communications are written and scheduled, so investors hear from you at the right moments.

Week 4Launch ready

Every document gets a final check against your LP base and jurisdiction.

You walk away with a lawyer-ready handoff pack and a compliance checklist for your first close.

06 / FAQ

Everything you need to know

Do I still need a lawyer?+
Yes. FundFlow is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. What we do is get you to a point where your lawyer engagement is short, efficient, and focused. The managers who come to us first spend significantly less on legal fees because they arrive prepared.
What fund structures do you support?+
All of them. SPVs, Fund I, rolling funds, evergreen structures, co-investment vehicles. If it pools capital and has LPs, we can help you structure and prepare it.
What jurisdictions do you work with?+
Cayman Islands, Mauritius, BVI, UK, Delaware, and most other common fund jurisdictions. We are particularly experienced with Africa-focused funds and cross-border LP bases spanning African, European, and Gulf investors.
How long does the process take?+
Four weeks for most fund setups. Complex structures with large or diverse LP bases may take five to six weeks. The timeline is clear from day one.
Is FundFlow only for first-time managers?+
No. We work with managers on Fund I, Fund II, and GPs restructuring existing vehicles. The common thread is wanting operational clarity before engaging expensive professional advisors.
What is the difference between FundFlow and a fund administrator?+
Fund administrators handle the ongoing financial and compliance administration of a live fund. FundFlow gets you structured and launch-ready before you need a fund administrator. Many of our managers engage a fund admin after completing Fund Setup with us.
What happens after Fund Setup?+
You are ready to engage legal counsel, onboard LPs, and launch. If you want operational support once you are live, FundFlow Fund Ops Partner runs your day-to-day fund operations from $600/month. Most Fund Setup clients move to Ops Partner at launch.
Who is behind FundFlow?+
FundFlow is built by fund operators, not technologists. Our team has direct experience managing LP relationships at scale, structuring cross-border vehicles, and supporting emerging managers from first close through full deployment.
