Now we spend far less time on infrastructure and spend more of our time building those relationships and investing behind the best founders in our ecosystems. I think Specter will become table stakes for any fund that wants to be in the top quartile.
Richard Dulude
Partner at Underscore VC
In a short period of time, Specter has become an integral part of how we ensure we have 100% coverage of the markets we operate in.
Gideon Hayden
Partner at Leaders Fund
We continually evaluate tools on the market, and Specter repeatedly stands out with its highly differentiated UX and comprehensive data.
Andrea Gurnari
Partner at 2100 Ventures
We are embedding Specter into all our workstreams, and it is showing significant promise as part of our strategy to find the next company we will back.
Ozge Sevim
Investor at 212 Ventures
Specter enhances the efficiency of our operations, and contributes to the in-house data systems we build to generate alpha. Covering both bases makes it a highly versatile and valued part of our tech stack.
Abhijay Thacker
VP at Picus Capital
Specter allows me to narrow or expand the scope of searches at will, without needing to build or maintain any of the data pipelines and infrastructure myself. Using it on a daily basis is super powerful.
Timothy Chen
Partner at Essence VC
We've already found one of our investments through Specter! That being said, its value extends beyond pure sourcing. Signals provide a level of intelligence that's valuable throughout the entire investment lifecycle.
Pietro Invernizzi
Founder of firedrop
Specter's performance-based signals draw us towards the right startups at the right time, so we're prepared as we can be to make the right decision.
Danny Chepenko
Corporate VC at inDrive
We've invested in a founder with roots at Stanford and Wharton. They were a rising star in their industry with a strong technical background. We found them as a Stealth signal through Specter.
Iynna Halilou
Partner at The MBA Fund
Tools like Specter surface early talent signals, company foundations, team moves, and nascent traction, beyond what internal scouts can manually track. We see companies we wouldn't see otherwise.
Ben Urwin
Data at Giant Ventures
Specter has been a useful addition to our sourcing stack - it's surfaced interesting companies we might have otherwise missed and helps keep our pipeline fresh.
Dominique Yadegar
VP at Bonfire Ventures
Specter is my go-to for founder outreach before anything else. My time on LinkedIn is substantially reduced; I open Specter, run our saved searches, look at Talent and Investor signals, and reach out
