Software discovery is broken. Tech buyers are bombarded with cold sales outreach from established vendors, leaving startups with truly innovative solutions struggling to gain the market awareness they deserve. At Sagetap, we believe buyers need to be in the driver's seat, where they aren't being sold to unless they want to be sold to. We also believe that a startup's success should be driven by the actual product-market-fit of their solution, and not by their marketing budgets. As a team, we are dedicated to building the first online platform that helps promising technology solutions get the recognition they deserve. We are proud to have the support of some of the best advisors and investors in the world, including NFX Ventures, Uncorrelated Ventures, and Emergent Ventures, who have helped create some of the products that you may already be using. If you're excited about revolutionizing the tech industry and want to join a team that shares your passion, we'd love to hear from you.

Pindrop® Protect provides a risk score and call intelligence to the call center in the first few seconds of each call. The risk score — along with the analysis of the caller’s voice, device, and behavior — is provided to the call center’s fraud analyst team for further investigation. Pindrop’s proprietary machine learning algorithms then use feedback from the investigation to maximize solution performance. Pindrop® Passport evaluates call center interactions in real-time to passively authenticate legitimate customers. Passport runs in the background of every call, combining patented Phoneprinting™ technology with proprietary Deep Voice™ biometrics to determine if a caller has the right device, voice, and behavior to access an account. Whether callers use voice or touch-tone interactions within the IVR — or opt to speak to an agent — Pindrop credentials follow customers across the lifecycle of each call.
