Turn startup discovery into measurable outcomes.
SwitchPitch gives enterprises one platform to understand markets, find aligned startups, compare capabilities, manage pipelines, and move the best opportunities from scouting to PoC.
Compare startups by IRL score, clients, funding, stage, traction, and capabilities.
Have an innovation need? Submit it and let SwitchPitch surface the right startups.
Understand where innovation is actually happening.
Most platforms track funding. SwitchPitch tracks real enterprise adoption, partnership activity, and sector momentum — so your team can spot emerging markets, see who is partnering with whom, and generate executive-ready landscapes from real activity.
Find the right startups in seconds, not weeks.
Search by business need, capability, technology area, or use case. SwitchPitch surfaces relevant companies instantly — then gives you the tools to go deep when precision matters.
Go beyond the pitch deck.
Most startup databases show you a description and a funding round. SwitchPitch surfaces the signals enterprise teams need to evaluate real fit — before the first meeting.
Adoption Data
See which enterprises have already deployed or piloted this startup, and in what context.
Traction Metrics
Revenue stage, growth signals, customer count, and enterprise contract indicators.
Patent Data
IP portfolio depth and relevance to your technology area or use case.
TRL Score
Technology Readiness Level so you know if a startup is early-stage research or production-ready.
Client Lists
Named enterprise customers and partnership summaries that validate commercial traction.
Each startup profile surfaces the data enterprise evaluators actually need.
A smarter signal than funding stage or headcount.
The IRL (Innovation Readiness Level) score is SwitchPitch's proprietary measure of how enterprise-ready a startup actually is. Every company on SwitchPitch is scored so teams can prioritize and compare with confidence — not gut feel.
Enterprise Clients
How many enterprise-grade clients the startup has, and in which industries — a direct signal of commercial validation.
Deployment Readiness
Product maturity, integration capabilities, security posture, and the startup's track record of successful enterprise deployments.
Traction & Stage
Funding milestones, revenue growth, and team size — weighted for enterprise context, not just VC momentum.
Ecosystem Signals
Recommendations and validation from VCs, accelerators, and universities in the SwitchPitch network add trusted third-party signal.
IRL scores are updated continuously as startups add clients, close funding, earn ecosystem recommendations, and expand integrations. A score above 7.0 indicates a startup your team can engage with confidence.
Get recommendations from VCs, accelerators, and universities you trust.
AI surfaces potential matches. Ecosystem partners add context, prioritization, and trusted recommendations.
SwitchPitch connects your innovation team to a curated network of ecosystem partners who surface startups with context and conviction, not just a list of names.
