For private companies, especially in fast-moving emerging technologies, fiscal and performance benchmarks have long been elusive, with incomplete data and dated, inflexible reporting…until now. Building on the incredible data asset they’ve spent the past four years creating and refining, Standard Metrics has introduced Global Benchmarking, their first data product and a massive leap forward for investors and builders alike to gauge how things are really going.
Standard Metrics, an 8VC Build company, was born partly from our own frustrations with the status quo of portfolio reporting and analytics, and launched in 2020 with 8VC as the first pilot customer. Since then, they’ve added over 100 top firms and 7000+ companies to the platform, and have never stopped iterating in their drive to establish a common language for private markets. With Global Benchmarking, they have reset the bar, and we are already reaping the benefits.
Congratulations to John Melas-Kyriazi, Ann Demirtjis, Devin Gribbons, Brian Cloughley, Carter Brewer, and friends!
For the 8VC perspective on the promise of Global Benchmarking and an early glimpse at how we’re using it, check out our new blog post from Joe Lonsdale, Alex Moore, and Gabe Rosen, featuring the inimitable design touch of Standard Metrics co-founder Deny Khoung.
