How TrustNXT Secured €1.6M in Funding with Orangedox

Raising capital is one of the most critical milestones for any startup, and the way sensitive documents are shared with investors can make or break the process. For TrustNXT, a Hamburg-based startup tackling the urgent issue of AI-driven content manipulation, professionalism and security were top priorities when preparing for their pre-seed round. With Orangedox Virtual Data Rooms, they streamlined investor communications, safeguarded confidential files, and successfully closed a €1.6M funding.
