About Expert Connect

Vetted expert insights, booked directly at half the cost.

We want to democratize human insights. Our platform connects you directly with experts so you can find exactly who you need, quickly, at a fraction of the cost.

The problem we solve

Expert insight has been priced like a luxury.

The judgment of someone who has hands-on experience is more valuable than ever, but legacy networks have made it expensive and slow. We believe you should pay the experts, not the markups.

Same insight. A very different price.

The expert earns the same $400 either way. The difference is everything in between.

From the founder

Broadening access to expert knowledge

Hands-on expertise is more valuable in the age of AI. The problem is that it's expensive to access.

Legacy networks put account managers, junior associates, and layers of admin between you and the experts you need. The result: a slow back-and-forth that costs more than double what it should.

Expert Connect was designed to change that.

Teams doing the work know what experts they need better than anyone, so we let them search, screen, and schedule directly, with more money going to the expert.
