Participated · Seed · Mar 2026
WhiteBridge began as a platform for digital footprint audits and reputation monitoring, aggregating and verifying public data across dozens of sources. It has expanded into a broader people search and research engine designed to help users validate information about others with reliable context. The platform turns fragmented public signals into actionable insights intended to improve professional and personal decision-making. The company highlights use cases including sales and partnership preparation, vendor and partner validation, and third-party screening of digitally active adults. WhiteBridge was founded in 2024 in Vilnius by Tomas Martūnas, Irmantas Motiejūnas, Justinas Barauskas, and Paulius Taraškevičius. Following its seed raise, the company will invest in product development, additional data provider connections, and improving the transparency and reliability of its insights.
