The only Private Market data tool that I keep going back to

As an investor at an early stage venture capital firm, my work revolves around seeking and analyzing data that isn't available to all. Thus, PitchBook forms an integral part of my daily workflows. Seeking information on deals, investors, market signals and more. It usually is my first source for data before seeking it elsewhere. Takes a little while getting used to the platform, but once I got a hang of where different tools are and what can I do with them, the productivity grew exponentially. From deal sourcing to platform services and fundraiseg, I find myself touching PitchBook in most of the projects. The data coverage is great, though not absolute. This is the biggest challenge for any private market tool that I have come across. But PitchBook does a great job of structuring and helping make sense of what is available.

Private market data, by design is supposed to be non-transparent. But PitchBook does a good job of collecting and structuring whatever it can. I constantly utilize the information on what investors are doing what deals, the sizes and valuations at which those deals are happening and how are the portfolio compositions changing.
