PitchBook's VC fund research tool gives investors granular data on 40,000+ funds
Track fund performance, IRR, cash multiples, and LP commitments in one platform.
PitchBook is a premier data and analytics platform for global capital markets, recently highlighted for its deep venture capital fund research capabilities. The tool covers over 40,000 VC funds across more than 25 fund types, including early/late stage, growth/expansion, buyout, and angel funds. Users can access critical fund details such as size, target, dry powder, and capital calls from LPs. Investment analysis goes further by showing individual companies backed by a fund, deal sizes, lead partners, and industry breakdowns.
Return analysis is a core feature, offering IRR, cash flow multiples (DPI, RVPI, TVPI), and distributions. Limited partner commitments are visible, and users can evaluate investment teams with contact information. The benchmark builder allows comparisons against similar funds while excluding outliers. The platform indexes over 6 million companies, 2 million investments, 481,000 investors, and 118,000 funds. For professionals seeking to validate fund performance and identify opportunities, PitchBook provides a single source of truth backed by Les Elliot of All Seasons Capital Management, who noted that LPs gain comfort from knowing a manager uses such robust data.
