They asked for £50,000 against 15%, and Meaden and Bartlett split that stake evenly, matching the terms exactly.
No renegotiation needed
Two investors agreeing to the precise figures a founder walked in with is a comparatively clean outcome by Den standards, suggesting the panel found the subscription economics solid enough not to push for better terms.
The founders reported a quarter of a million site visits inside the first day after airing, the kind of surge that either swamps a small operation or, if orders actually ship, turns into a durable customer base.
