About Product

Product is the driving force behind what we build at Harmonic. Our products span data and web applications that enable engineers, associates, and partners, at hundreds of the world’s most active venture firms to pinpoint the startups they should engage with.

Customer love is our north star, and we want developers and application users alike to have that flawless “it just works” experience. Design creates elegant product experiences that address our users’ biggest priorities and pain points. In the past 6 months, we’ve accomplished this at a breakneck pace with releases like:

• Network mapping: enabling customers to never miss a deal within their network, and leverage their team for out-of-network deals. 
• Founder search: now used by hundreds of teams to pinpoint founders and talent. Supports searches like “show me everyone who worked at a tier 1 investor backed company in product or engineering from the preseed to series A stage, who is now a free agent”
• Investor profiles: clear insight into investor activity and relationships
• Semantic Search: Discover target companies through natural language search instead of keyword filters. Simply type what you’re looking for (e.g., “AI for dental hygiene”) and get better results, faster.
• Research Agents: Get instant, detailed company research automatically generated from multiple data sources. Input any company name to receive a structured report covering team, market, product, and traction - turning hours of manual diligence into minutes.
• Custom Columns: Add and track custom data points on any company in Harmonic. Whether scoring potential investments, tracking meeting outcomes, or adding proprietary tags, investors can now customize Harmonic to match their team's unique workflows and evaluation criteria
• A suite of AI-driven features, such as: personalized relevance scoring, similar company mapping, modeled headcount, standardized descriptions
• and much more…
