Your Research Tools Weren't Built for Executive Search
PitchBook was built for deal teams. LinkedIn was built for job seekers. You've been hacking both into research tools — toggling between tabs, copying data into spreadsheets, and missing the context that matters most.
“What's this company's revenue?”
Private company data scattered across PitchBook, LinkedIn, and Google
“What happened during their tenure?”
No tool connects executive timelines to company transactions
“Who else fits this niche?”
Keyword search misses the companies that don't describe themselves the way you'd search
“Can I trust this data?”
Black-box estimates with no methodology you can show a client

Executive Profiles With Financial Context
Not just job titles — see which transactions happened during their tenure, which PE firms backed them, which companies they scaled or exited. The context search firms need to present credible candidates to clients.
- Transaction timelines overlaid on executive work history
- PE backing attribution by tenure period
- Exit outcomes tied to the people who were actually there
- Filter executives by when they were at a company — find who was CFO during the 2019 exit, not just who's there now

- Direct contact information and LinkedIn links for immediate outreach
“That exit feature is very interesting, especially for the CFO practice.”

Frequently Asked Questions
PitchBook is built for deal teams and investors. Verata is built for the people who source and place executives. We have the company data you need — revenue, transactions, funding — plus executive intelligence PitchBook doesn't offer: transaction-tenure mapping, backchannel discovery, and AI-powered search across niche industries.
Revenue figures are clearly labeled as estimates unless verified from regulatory filings. We estimate revenue using comparable company analysis — the same methodology you'd use in a model. We show you the comps and methodology so you can assess confidence yourself. No black boxes, no fabricated numbers.
Yes. Our AI industry search understands niche verticals and returns companies and executives that keyword-based tools miss. Type a natural language description like "waste-to-energy companies in the Southeast" and get relevant results — not just keyword matches.
We aggregate from regulatory filings, public deal announcements, board records, and professional profiles. Revenue estimates use transparent comparable company analysis — you can see every comp and the math behind every estimate. We never use black-box AI to fabricate data.
Schedule a demo and we'll get you set up the same day. No IT project, no procurement process.
Start with a descriptive industry term and narrow from there. The AI understands industries semantically — 'waste management' will find 'environmental services' and 'solid waste collection' automatically. Good example: 'healthcare staffing companies in Texas doing $20-50M.' Too broad: 'healthcare.' Too narrow usually isn't a problem — if results are thin, broaden your revenue range or geography.
