What Is PitchBook Navigator Navigator is a chat-based AI experience that allows users to ask plain-language questions about startups, deals, investors, and market trends. It’s built directly into the PitchBook platform and is expected to roll out later this month. The integration with ChatGPT means that users can now surface PitchBook’s proprietary data directly from within the popular AI assistant, making due diligence and market research faster and more intuitive.


The timing aligns with a red-hot private tech market, where companies like OpenAI, SpaceX, Stripe, and Anthropic are reaching astronomical valuations. Investors and dealmakers are increasingly seeking real-time, AI-powered access to private market intelligence. PitchBook’s move reflects a broader industry trend toward AI-driven decision-making in venture capital and private equity.


AI meets human expertise

PitchBook says Navigator combines advanced AI with human insights, ensuring that responses are not only fast but also accurate and objective. The company has already partnered with other AI platforms like Anthropic, Perplexity, Rogo, and Hebbia, but the ChatGPT integration marks a significant leap in accessibility and user experience
