PitchBook Platform is a private capital market data and research subscription covering deals, investors, funds, and companies.
PitchBook Platform is a subscription suite that delivers private capital market data, research, and analytics on private equity, venture capital, and M&A. Subscribers query company profiles, deal histories, fund performance, investor activity, and limited-partner commitments, then export findings to Excel, build comparable tables, and run benchmarking against peer cohorts.
The platform sources public filings, regulatory disclosures, news, and a global research operation, then layers proprietary models such as PitchBook Valuation Estimates and the Morningstar PitchBook Private Market Indexes on top. Customers include private fund managers, investment banks, corporate development teams, law firms, and academic researchers; access is delivered through the web application, an Excel plugin, an API, and Microsoft Word integration.
