From Scouting to Validated Decisions
Novable is a startup intelligence platform built for large organisations that require more than search results. We combine structured validation, proprietary data and expert oversight to deliver decision-ready startup candidates.
The Challenge
Artificial intelligence has dramatically simplified startup discovery. But raw startup lists are no longer sufficient. Uncertainty carries risk. What matters is structured validation.
Generating lists, summaries and overviews is now fast and accessible to everyone.
Without structured validation, decisions are based on incomplete or unreliable information.
Enterprise teams need decision-grade intelligence, not just search results.
Our Approach
Novable integrates validation directly into the scouting process, combining proprietary technology with structured human oversight.
Our proprietary engine matches startups based on their actual activities (not just keywords) ensuring relevance grounded in real-world signals.
We enrich every candidate with proprietary signals, validation metrics and structured scoring systems designed for enterprise decision-making.
Novable Experts provide qualitative assessment and contextual insight, adding a critical layer of judgment beyond automated analysis.
When required, we engage directly with companies to validate assumptions, clarify positioning and conduct deeper analysis aligned with your needs.

"We decided to work under a corporate mentoring strategy. We work on the corporate, on a venture clienting model, and we identify challenges in the company, in the different business units and challenges that are strategic and innovative that can be solved by startups. And then our role with Orange Fab is to look for the startups, thanks to Novable, to boost them into the Orange ecosystem."

"For our latest SCALE program, Novable managed to find 683 innovative companies, of which 72.6% were matching or exceeding our expectations. What's more, their iterative process helped us smoothly spread our outreach workload over the course of a month and a half. We were under a lot of pressure, and Novable never stopped delivering. Such a level of commitment to help us reach our objectives is rare."
"Our team scouts startups globally, and what we really like about Novable is that it doesn’t just surface companies, they’re vetted with a human-in-the-loop approach. That made a big difference, and we even brought some of these companies into our programs"
