Context

The problem

  • 01.

    One firm runs both a public brand and an information business for its investors.

  • 02.

    Portfolio data lived in email threads and ad-hoc PDFs, so investors worked from stale quarterly updates.

  • 03.

    Confidential figures needed tiered access, with different investor categories seeing different levels of detail.

Approach

Approach

  1. 01

    Positioning over template

    The public site was built around the firm's own positioning rather than a generic venture-capital template.

  2. 02

    Access control in the data model

    Access rules sit with the data rather than in the interface, and the analysis graphs live inside each portfolio company's record.

  3. 03

    Updates without engineering

    The Cornerstone team adds companies, updates records and publishes analysis themselves.

My work

What I built

  • Built the public site in Webflow: team, investment thesis, portfolio, published thoughts and press, with contact paths for founders and limited partners.
  • Built the closed-access portfolio area, with a record per portfolio company covering operating profile, technology category and funding history.
  • Built the market-analysis pages and graphs: time to unicorn, the India tech IPO tracker, global indices and SaaS metrics.
  • Automated the data behind those graphs with Make.com, so the figures stay current without manual edits.
  • Structured the Webflow CMS so the firm's team maintains portfolio records and analysis on its own.
