Nodal operates a technology-driven marketplace that vets and matches prospective parents with gestational surrogates, aiming to shorten wait times and increase transparency. The platform applies underwriting-like screening to expand the available surrogate supply and reduce middleman costs. Users pay $500 monthly until a match, a $15,000 match fee (with monthly payments crediting that total), and optional case-management services starting at $10,000. Nodal says it has matched 108 intended parents, averages a 45‑day match time versus the typical nine to 18 months, and reports saving intended parents over $5 million in fees. The product launched in September 2022 and is available in all 50 states. The company plans to invest its recent funding into technology and deepen partnerships with fertility clinics to increase referrals and scale supply. Nodal is a surrogacy matching platform launched in September 2022 and incubated by Pareto Holdings. The company uses proprietary matching technology and a user flow that prompts surrogates to make first contact with intended parent profiles. Intended parents and individuals pay a monthly membership fee to create profiles; all members undergo screening that includes background checks and live interviews. Nodal provides education, surrogate-led community connections, and eligible members access to Maven Clinic's virtual care platform. The company’s mission is to increase transparency, equity and empowerment while lowering cost barriers in the surrogacy process. Nodal's public launch is powered by a $4.7M capital raise led by Amplo to support the platform's rollout.
