40,000
AI solutions and you receiving 4–10 cold pitches daily, there’s no time to find any signal in the noise.
Source: There’s An AI For That, 2026 01 / 17No one can track the hundreds of enterprise AI solutions + the dozens launching each week.
So leaders fall behind, or make rushed bets.

13 / 17Where we source from
Every recommendationreco has a source.
We track the whole market, member or not, and a person reviews every pick before it reaches you.
- Company sites
- Public funding filings
- Hiring activity
- Investor portfolios
- Launch and funding news
- Field Notes from verified peersMembers only.
Free, always.
- Private by default. No startup sees who you are or contacts you until you opt in.
- No one buys a spot. Paying never changes matches, Fit Check verdicts or what you see.
- Field Notes can’t be bought. Vendors can reply once, but never edit, hide or remove a note.
- Leader-first, always. The best fit we find, member or not. Not on SMRTN? We reach out for you.
- Feedback stays anonymous. Vendors only hear themes shared by at least three leaders.
- Pitches stay private. Vendors never learn who forwarded one.
Optional paid add-ons
Scouting, help with implementation and migrations, on-site adoption capture, and tracking user adoption vs. spend by AI vendor.
