We’ve spent our careers exploring and executing on new product areas and expansion opportunities, and trying to optimize businesses’ results. We’re building Riveter to help companies make better strategic decisions, faster.
The problem
Growth stage, venture funded companies have two top concerns:
- How do we maintain growth at scale?
- Do our metrics align with public companies for a successful IPO?
To answer these questions, companies often do the following:
- Explore adjacent areas for expansion: A commercial neobank might consider expanding to consumer
- Benchmark to similar companies: Toast might compare their financials to Square's
- Track their market share: A CRM might monitor competitors’ penetration across the market
Our insights
- Companies are hiring consulting firms that cost $1M+ and take months to provide a single report, which quickly becomes outdated.
- Accessing key insights into public companies requires time consuming analysis due to inconsistencies across companies and obfuscation of important information.
The solution
Riveter automates the collection and analysis of private and public company data, so you can focus on making the right strategic decisions, faster.
