How is the data acquired?

Grata’s proprietary artificial intelligence gathers information straight from the source — a company’s own website. Grata quickly acquires and clearly displays information like employee estimates, company growth, and funding data.

Pitchbook manually collects data. Their company data cannot be refreshed at the same rate as Grata’s.

Grata is the leading business development platform for thesis-driven dealmakers looking to source deals in the middle market. Grata provides comprehensive company profiles with in-depth information for millions of companies that have not undergone an M&A transaction.

Our proprietary artificial intelligence gathers information directly from companies in their own words but also translates what those words mean for an investor.

We collect a business' website copy and translate it into a dealmaker’s language. Language like “tailored solutions” on a company’s webpage converts to the correct label “services company” and words like “platform” into “software company.”

Pitchbook is the leading resource for comprehensive financial data, in-depth market reports, and insights spanning the global capital markets.

Pitchbook may be a good fit for investors whose thesis leans strongly on upper middle market opportunities.
