You should go to the VCs that usually compete with the VCs that invested in your competitor. This other groups' funding has created a "gap" in the portfolio of other VCs that you could fill. There is the first-mover disadvantage: they have to maintain backwards compatibility and they are now deeply sunk into their UI and marketing. You can learn the lessons they get from feedback. This is like free product testing.

Didn't think about that. Any idea where I could find that VC information?
