Founder’s Story

I’m Sal, an investor and strategic finance partner focused on closing the gap between vision and capital. I’ve helped founders scale, raise, and navigate tough markets, and I kept seeing the same blockers: unclear stories for investors and valuations that were slow, inconsistent, and hard to defend.

ValuEdge.AI fixes both: defensible valuation, a sharper narrative, fast delivery, and practical guidance you can take into investor meetings with confidence.
