Read the decisions behind it.
Separate Investor and Startup as distinct classes, both associated with Deal via many-to-many and one-to-many relationships respectively.

Use this diagram when designing or documenting a deal flow management platform for investors and startups, especially for features like deal submission, investment tracking, due diligence checklists, and document management.
