We read 6,800 funded RegCF pitches. The words that raise the most money aren't the ones you'd expect.

The gap between a top-quartile raise and a bottom-quartile one is 24x. So we ran the language through NLP to see what separates them.

It isn't hype. "Revolutionary" and "disrupt" don't move the needle. Sentiment, length, and buzzwords like "traction" show no advantage at all.

What the big raises actually talk about: FDA approvals, clinical pipelines, recurring revenue, clean energy, real assets. The language mirrors the business — substance beats spin.
