about meridian
Private company data should be continuous and live. Not locked in static reports published months after the fact.
the problem
In public markets, data flows in real time. Prices, volumes, activity — all of it is continuous, standardised, and accessible. Private markets operate on an entirely different logic. Funding rounds, valuations, investor activity, and growth benchmarks surface in static analyst reports that are outdated the moment they're published, or in fragmented news coverage that captures only the biggest deals. For founders, operators, angels, journalists, and researchers, that data is effectively invisible.
The result is a market that runs on information asymmetry, systematically favouring those with the connections and resources to fill the gaps themselves.
the mission
Meridian exists to change that. We believe private market data should work the way public market data does: continuously updated, standardised, and accessible to anyone. We aggregate and normalise real data from private market funding rounds and company activity, and we surface it live. No subscription required.
Founders should be able to benchmark their companies against what the market is doing right now, not last quarter. Researchers should be able to study private markets as they move. Anyone with curiosity should be able to follow how capital flows through the startup ecosystem in real time.
what we're building
The startup valuation engine is the first. Enter your company's details and see how the market prices companies like yours, powered by a model trained on 100,000+ funding rounds and updated continuously as new data comes in. More is coming.
