Maven Research

Maven Research runs a microconsulting platform - an expert network that connects decision-makers with vetted industry professionals for on-demand phone consultations, expert interviews, surveys and B2B research panels. Founded in 2008 by Wyatt Nordstrom and Mark Platosh, Maven uses machine-learning-assisted matching plus human curation to source specialists for market research, investment due diligence and product decisions, pitching answers that arrive faster and cheaper than traditional consulting. The company also licenses OpenITM, a white-label internal talent marketplace that lets large organizations build private expert communities.
