"Connected with state-of-the-art industry leaders"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

The wide array of expertise on the platform was baffling, and even with our very very specific request there was still someone who could help Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

A lot of the experts are consultants and use the platform for advertising, so getting any useful information is difficult Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible and useful sourcer of expertise in any field"

5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

Direct communication and flexibility in terms of fees - I didn't want to spend 10k EUR+ without having prior experience with the agencies. At maven with only 500$ deposit I managed to source a full list of experts and I only had to pay the difference afterwards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

Hard to highlight anything , but one particular surpise was that Zoom meeting recording costs 1$/minute, which seems odd of a fee - since I could record it for myself, but of course that's a rounding difference compared to the added value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's Like An All You Can Eat Buffet for Knowledge"

5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

Our interviews are 30 minutes. We get in, have a dialog, and get out. Easy as pie. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

Not all experts are created equal. Fortunately, it's not a huge time sink (only 30 minutes) when there's a mismatch between expertise and expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Maven solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our team gains insight by talking to experts. Unfortunately, our company has lots of bureaucracy when trying to compensate experts for their time. Maven eliminates that hassle. We pay an annual subscription fee once, and they do the rest. We have tapped into the network on a variety of specific topics as part of our foresight, strategy, and planning processes.

"Used Maven to help a portfolio of early stage startups perform market and customer discovery."

5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

Maven makes it so easy to find an expert and schedule a time to talk. Maven is the "easy button". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

I would like to see Maven get the word out about their offering for the use-case of early-stage startup market/customer discovery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Maven:

Compare the time, cost and quality of finding the right experts with Maven to the time, cost and quality of finding them yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Maven solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the biggest challenges in an early-stage startup is learning about the, players, competition, trends and customer needs in a certain market vertical. This can be a tedious and time-consuming process involving cold calls, cold emails, LinkedIn requests, etc...and even then, finding the right people to talk to can be impossible. It is so difficult that many startup founders just don't do it. Maven is a god send in this area. With Maven's vast network, an expert is just a phone call away. This expert access can cut the time required for market and customer discovery from months/years to days/weeks and can be the difference between success and failure for an early-stage startup.

I ran a startup accelerator, incubator and investment fund. We had a portfolio of around 150 early-stage startups. We provided legal services, incubation space, mentors, coaching and investment for these startups. The most valuable tool that we provided to this startup portfolio was Maven. Founders could quickly perform market discovery, customer discovery and assess product market fit in just a few weeks. Maven's benefit to the entire portfolio was enormous.
