CB Insights is for market research. Not for finding LP emails.
You're not alone. Thousands of fund managers have felt the same frustration with CB Insights. Here's what they tell us—and how LPbacked is different.
Try LPbacked FreeSound familiar?
These are real frustrations we hear from fund managers who switched from CB Insights.
Research platform, not a contact database
CB Insights excels at market intelligence and trends. LP contacts with emails? Not their focus.
Prohibitive pricing
Starting at $50,000+/year. That's not a typo. Enterprise-only, no exceptions.
Investor profiles lack contact depth
You can research an LP's portfolio. You can't email them from the platform.
Overkill for LP outreach
You're paying for AI insights, market maps, and newsletters when you just need contact info.
What CB Insights users say
“Amazing research, but I can't email anyone I find”
“Asked for pricing, got told it starts at $50K”
“I need contacts, not AI-generated market maps”
“Even after a demo, no way to get just the LP data”
How LPbacked fixes this
We built LPbacked because we were frustrated too. Here's what's different.
Research, not contacts

$50K+ pricing
Start at $99/month. That's 500x cheaper.
No actionable contacts

Feature overload
