At TechTree we enable people & organizations to create a private LinkedIn-like experience for their networks. Our data platform helps "network owners" (such as VCs, communities, event organizers, media companies and more) to enrich their database with information coming from semi-public sources such as LinkedIn, Crunchbase and more. We're using AI on top of this rich data set to notify our users about the meaningful connections & intros that can be made between people who are in the same networks already, but don't know about each others existence. We also make it easier for people and organizations to show the value and relevance of their networks to external partners - such as event sponsors, media advertisers or founders that VCs are trying to invest in.
