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.
