Verata - AI-Powered PE Intelligence Platform
Verata unifies financial data and executive profiles to help PE firms make better investment and talent decisions
Hey everyone 👋
We're Josh and Nick – co-founders of Verata.
TL;DR Verata is the first unified intelligence platform for private equity that combines financial data and detailed executive profiles in one place. PE professionals spend hours jumping between LinkedIn, Pitchbook, and ZoomInfo manually compiling data. Verata saves firms 4.7x research time while providing verified executive attribution data that reveals which leaders truly drive returns.

❌ The Problem
Private equity professionals waste 20+ hours per week on fragmented research across data silos (PitchBook, LinkedIn, ZoomInfo).
A look at the numbers:
- 71% of PE professionals toggle between 3+ platforms daily
- 62% of executive hires fail to meet performance expectations
- $380B in value creation is missed annually due to poor talent decisions
- No solutions: existing platforms show where executives worked but not what they actually delivered
