01Portfolio Continuity

Every student and alumni startup you’ve backed, tracked long after the check clears.

Once a startup is invested, it stays tracked in Seraf for as long as you hold the position — organized by cohort or graduating class, so the fund’s history survives long after the founders (and student managers) have moved on.

  • Invested companies grouped by cohort or class year
  • Valuations, documents, and updates tracked over time
  • One clear portfolio view, no matter who’s currently running the fund

02 / Why university venture programs switch

Built for continuity, not just one semester.

01

A portfolio that outlasts any one manager

Fund managers are often students who graduate — the platform keeps every investment’s history intact as leadership changes every year.

02

Cohorts, tracked as a portfolio

See invested companies grouped by cohort or graduating class, and how each group is performing years later.

03

Reporting your stakeholders understand

Give the university, alumni board, or student fund committee a report scoped to what they oversee.

Honest answers

Questions we get asked

Is this built for funds investing in student or alumni startups, not endowments?

Yes — this is for venture funds and accelerator programs investing in student, alumni, and campus-affiliated startups.

Can we see our invested companies grouped by cohort?

Yes — invested companies can be grouped and filtered by cohort, demo day, or graduating class for a portfolio-level view.

What happens when our fund managers graduate and hand off the fund?

The fund’s full history — every investment, document, and valuation — stays in the system, so new student managers pick up right where the last cohort left off.

Can we report to our university or alumni board?

Yes — generate a report scoped to exactly what your oversight board needs to see.
