01 / Platform

One platform, four ways into a market.

Companies, investors, people and deals are not separate databases in PitchMetric. They are one connected graph, so every search ends at a profile you can act on.

Company discovery

A complete universe for every search.

Screen private companies by sector, geography, size and ownership. Save any search and rerun it as the market moves, so a search becomes a living list instead of a one-off export.

  • Filters built on a structured sub-sector taxonomy
  • Ownership signals separate founder-owned targets from sponsor-backed ones
  • Saved screens refresh as new companies qualify

05 / FAQ

Questions we hear most.

Where does the data come from?

PitchMetric runs on its own database, built and maintained in house. Our team of analysts and data engineers processes large volumes of company, ownership and transaction data, verifies it and resolves it into one profile per company. The pipeline runs continuously, so new market signals show up on profiles as they happen rather than at a scheduled refresh.

How is this different from a generic company database?

Most databases are refreshed in bulk a few times a year, so records go stale between updates. Our pipeline processes data continuously and profiles reflect what a company looks like now. The platform is also built for transactions rather than sales prospecting: ownership structure, investment criteria, deal activity and decision makers are first-class data, and the output is a shortlist you can defend in front of a client.

How does my team get access?

Access is provisioned per workspace. Request a demo, and if it is a fit we set up a workspace for your team and invite your colleagues directly. There is no public self-serve signup.

Does it replace our CRM?

No. PitchMetric is where deals start. You research, screen and shortlist here, then run your live pipeline wherever your team already works.

Who is PitchMetric for?

Any team that works private markets. M&A advisers source and run sell-side and buy-side processes. Private equity and venture teams use it for deal sourcing, market mapping and add-on searches. Corporate development teams track acquisition targets and adjacent markets. Founders and fundraising advisers find the investors whose criteria match their company. Research and market intelligence teams work from the same profiles to understand sectors and ownership.

06 / Data you can defend

Depth that holds up in a partner meeting.

A shortlist is only as good as the data behind it. PitchMetric is built around a disciplined record of each company, refreshed and resolved before it ever reaches your screen.

An expert team behind every record

Our analysts and data engineers run the pipeline that builds each profile: verified, deduplicated and kept current as the market moves.

Classified for precision

Companies are placed in a structured taxonomy of 160+ sub-sectors, so a screen for packaging machinery does not return logistics brokers.

Deepens as you work

Profiles you open are enriched automatically. The companies your team cares about become the best-documented companies in the platform.

Private by default

Your searches, lists and notes stay inside your workspace. Access is provisioned per team, and no activity is shared outside it.

Your next deal is already in here.

Bring a real search to the first call. We will run it against the platform together and hand you the shortlist.
