What it does
CB Insights provides private-company intelligence for investment and corporate-development teams. It connects funding histories and valuations with information about investors, customers and competitors. Watchlists and alerts help teams follow companies after the initial search.
A company profile can be examined alongside its investors, customers and competitors. CB Insights combines those relationships with funding histories and market categories, which helps when comparing a company with others serving the same market.
Watchlists and alerts support continued monitoring after initial discovery. For example, a corporate-development team can follow a shortlist of potential partners and their funding activity. Predictive scores are model outputs, so examine the underlying company information before drawing a conclusion.
