Specter’s People DB is a powerful tool designed to help investors track and connect with key talent across startups and scale-ups. It provides deep insights into individual professionals, including their roles, career trajectories, and affiliations with high-growth companies. This enables users to identify rising talent, monitor workforce trends, and uncover strategic hiring patterns to inform investment decisions.
