Short answer

How do I measure how efficiently my alumni are raising money?

Your AI uses the get_funding_efficiency tool to pull raw fundraising data and calculate how much capital is being captured relative to time spent in rounds. You get a clear view of capital velocity and funding speed across your entire portfolio.
