15 / 14 (100%)
Purpose-built AI deep tech thesis. Multiphysics simulation with quantum modules is the kind of technical moat Radical looks for — this is deeper than applied AI, it's research-origin software. Bosch as a reference customer is a tier-1 signal that the technology works at scale. Canada GTM is the Canadian mandate hook.
Next: Cold outreach to Jordan Jacobs. Lead with Bosch reference and the physics/quantum differentiation — not the SaaS wrapper. Radical responds to scientific moat, not market size.
Tier 2 — qualified outreach (score 7–10/14)

12 / 14 (86%)
Series A with enterprise revenue and Bosch reference. OMERS' enterprise SaaS appetite fits. Canada GTM is the entry hook — position as a Canadian-expansion play, not a Finnish company investment.
Next: TBDC warm path. Frame as a Canada GTM investment opportunity. Bosch reference is the credibility anchor.
Do not match — reason logged
✗
Portage / Impression Ventures
FinTech and InsurTech focus. Engineering simulation has zero thesis overlap regardless of the AI component.
✗
Golden / Panache / Staircase
Stage mismatch — these VCs write $250K–$1.5M at pre-seed. Quanscient closing a Series A with Bosch as a client is categorically outside their mandate.
✗
Accel India
India-market focus. Quanscient's customers and GTM are Europe and North America — no India angle exists.
