Everyone on the team is extremely mission-driven, and works incredibly hard to push towards our lofty ambitions. Most people won’t be cut out for it.

We are on a mission to develop underserved startup ecosystems. We do this by empowering businesses with tools and expertise and providing expert freelancers with a platform to develop their careers.

Entrepreneur Platform: a hub where entrepreneurs can find experts, get access to perks, obtain actionable feedback on their pitch materials, apply to investors & track their fundraise.
Matchmaking Service: our algorithm to match founders with experts and with investors
Deal Flow Platform: a tool where investors can source and manage deals
Pariti Community: a place where entrepreneurs & experts can ask their questions & collaborate with each other
