I'd suggest investing your time in the product first and converting the waitlist to real users before trying to take on external investment. It will either make it much easier or you won't need to raise depending on what happens when your product goes out to the 1000 user list.

Plenty of angels on HN. Whats the startup?

Even though they are mainly for DevTools/Infra you can try https://buildrappo.com/
As an early-stage tech founder, I have met multiple leaders there who are also angels on the side. All the best.

Make friends with other entrepreneurs. Impress them and ask them for intros to their investors. If you're good, and your product is good, they'll want to introduce you as it looks good for them.

I have so many founder friends in SF, but their investors expect them to focus and work solely on their own thing.

I think you might misunderstand what I'm saying. An introduction is an email. If you already knew that, then you either misunderstand how the game is played, or your friends won't introduce you because they don't believe in what you're building.

I'm not OP, but I'm working on an AI powered NoCode platform. Could I contact you once I have a prototype going?

Ask for forgiveness rather than permission.

You're already ready Neo.
