BUILT BY FOUNDERS,
FOR FOUNDERS.
Two lifelong friends that are big nerds. We love to cook, play chess, and cook with code.
WHY WE BUILT CAUSO
The companies worth talking to are already out there, described in a filing, a job post, a planning application, a supplier list. Digging them out just took a person most of a day, so the work never got done.
Teams buy a list instead. Everyone buys the same list, and the companies that would actually have said yes never get found, because no filter could describe them. We spent thirteen years each doing that digging by hand, Ivan on the investor side and Dawid on the growth side. Causo is the thing we kept wishing existed.
A short list you can act on beats ten thousand rows you'll never open. Every result shows its sources.
Anyone can find SaaS in San Francisco. We built for the markets that don't fit a dropdown.
If Causo can't find something, it says so. It never fills the gap with a plausible guess.
