We have built our own data collection engine that gathers publicly available data from landing pages, news sources, social media, and investor portfolios. Additionally, our users can add and edit their own data.

No, your deal-flow remains confidential. There is no signaling to other investors about your interest in certain companies. Startups and investors can see who has viewed their profiles. We may share aggregate data about countries and industries but not individual investor interest.

Your startup could have been added by anyone - a competing startup, an investor scouting for potential investments, or a sales representative looking for similar companies. You can claim your company profile and choose to hide it, so it won`t appear in search results. You control your visibility.

In brief, we use some AI. For a more detailed explanation, we've developed our own data collection infrastructure and machine learning engine, supported by a database that captures a specific worldview of ideas and capital flow. This system is constantly updating. And yes, we use large language models.

You can`t! Securing a domain and creating an email address are the minimum requirements to join Starwatcher. These steps also represent the basic groundwork needed to start your entrepreneurial journey. It`s not about you! It`s us!

Our pricing is based on usage, specifically the number of company profiles you view. Both startups and investors are subject to the same pricing structure. Each month, you have a free quota of company profiles you can check; additional profiles require payment. This system ensures that by paying, you are invested in the service. Pricing probably will change in the future.
