Peerlist

Pune, Maharashtra, India

Overview

Peerlist is a professional networking platform that helps users showcase verified work experience, education and portfolios by integrating contributions from GitHub, Dribbble, Substack and Gumroad. The product verifies work via users' work emails and education via student badges or institute emails, with plans to expand verification of past experiences and credentials. Profiles are viewable as resumes and portfolios, and users must sign up to message or access contact information. The startup reports more than 20,000 users, about 60% of whom are verified, and plans to reach over one million users by year-end. Peerlist currently has no revenue model but intends to monetize its verified user base by charging companies that hire from the platform. The company plans product additions (custom domain profiles, company branding and tech-stack displays) and is ideating a feature to verify angel investors' investment histories. Founded in August 2021 by Akash Bhadange and Yogini Bende, Peerlist is Delaware-registered with an office in Pune and is expanding its engineering, marketing and sales teams from a five-person engineering core.
