StackGo VS PitchMap

PitchMap's answer:

PitchMap puts business networking on a live map instead of in a feed. Every pin is a real person nearby, so you can see who is around you right now, what they are working on and what they need — then act on it while you are still in the same place.

A few things that are specific to PitchMap:

• Opportunities are geographic. A post is shown to people close enough to actually do something about it, not to an anonymous global timeline.
• Travel mode lets you drop your pin in a city before you get there, so meetings are already lined up when you land.
• Events and Groups sit on the same map, and Inner Circle lets community hosts charge for their exclusive spaces.
• Filters and tags work on intent (skill, industry, what someone is looking for), not just job titles.

PitchMap's answer:

Most networking tools optimise for reach; PitchMap optimises for proximity and timing.

• Against feed-based professional networks: you are not competing for attention in a global stream. You see and are seen by the people who are physically close and currently relevant.
• Against event platforms: events are one part of PitchMap, not the whole product. Between events you still have a live map, opportunity posts and direct messaging to keep the connection going.
• Against intro/matching services: there is no waiting for a weekly match. You browse the map, filter for what you need and reach out immediately.
• It is free to get started, works straight from the browser, and travel mode means it keeps working when you leave your home city.

PitchMap's answer:

PitchMap is built for people whose next deal depends on meeting the right person:

• Founders and early-stage startup teams looking for co-founders, advisors, customers or investors close by.
• Investors and angels who want to see what is being built in their city or in a city they are visiting.
• Freelancers, consultants and agencies looking for local clients and collaborators.
• Sales, business development and partnership professionals working a territory.
• Community builders and event hosts who want to fill a room with relevant people and run paid, members-only groups.

It is equally useful for frequent business travellers, who use travel mode to build a schedule in a city before arriving.

PitchMap's answer:

PitchMap was started by founder and CEO Cameron Yemmi, who came from a sales and business development background and kept running into the same problem: the right partner, client or investor was often only a few streets away, and neither side ever found out.

The idea was to make that invisible layer visible — a real-time, geospatial opportunity network where people, ideas and needs show up on a map instead of disappearing into a feed. PitchMap grew out of that into a full platform with opportunity posts, events, groups and travel mode, all organised around where you actually are.

PitchMap's answer:

PitchMap is a web application built on a modern JavaScript stack:

• Next.js / React for the front end, served as a fast, responsive web app that works on desktop and mobile browsers.
• Mapbox GL JS with a custom map style for the live map, clustering and geospatial rendering.
• A dedicated REST API (api.pitchmap.app) handling discovery, profiles, opportunities, events, groups and messaging.
• Geospatial queries for proximity search, so nearby people and posts are resolved in real time from your location or your travel-mode pin.
