Snaben
Invite-only · founders, investors & operators
Snaben is where senior professionals declare privately what they need — and get introduced to the one person who can supply it. One sentence from you; a booked meeting back. No browsing, no cold outreach, no feed.
Who’s on Snaben
Who it’s for
Raise, hire, find the co-founder.
Matched with active investors on your stage — never a cold list.
See fundraising intent nobody broadcasts.
Matched with founders raising now, on your thesis.
Pipeline made of real buyers.
Matched with buyers and suppliers — both directions.
Meet peers at your level. Find a mentor when you want one. Never a junior sales pitch.
Everyone is matched by seniority: a founder meets an investor, a sales leader meets a buyer, an operator meets an operator — never a mismatch of level. You never browse strangers or send a cold DM. You declare what you need — once, privately — and the introduction arrives. Plans, not profiles.
How it works
01
“I’m raising a Series A in fintech.” “I’m in Dubai Tue–Thu.” “I’d sell for the right number.” One sentence. That’s the whole setup.
02
Your declaration is visible only to someone who declared the matching intent — and who sits in the right seniority band. Nobody else. Not your board, not your staff, not your employer.
03
The engine surfaces three or four people. Never a list. Never a search bar.
04
Snaben makes the intro and books the time. You never negotiate a calendar.
05
Both sides say whether it was worth it. Ratings feed reputation; reputation decides who you can reach next time. Every meeting makes the next match sharper.
The only unit of value
Not a connection. Not a profile view. Not a follower. Every meeting is rated afterwards by both sides — and those ratings decide who each of you can reach next. If Snaben produces meetings worth taking, reliably, nothing else matters.

Privacy by design
Engineered, not promised
“Admins have no SELECT permission on individual users — enforced at the database level. Not policy. Not training. Postgres rules.”
A declaration — ‘raising’, ‘I’d sell for the right number’, ‘I’d move for the right role’ — is visible only to a counterpart who declared the matching intent, in the right seniority band. No public signal you’re leaving.
Your profile, trips and intent are invisible to anyone on your company's email domain — automatically.
The moment a network can be browsed, it becomes a lead list — and the senior side leaves. So you can’t.
The engine
Intent says why — declared, private, bilateral. Standing says who can reach you — verified on numbers: capital raised, headcount managed, P&L owned, deal count. Never titles. Reputation says who keeps access — earned from rated meetings: show up, be useful, follow through. Proximity — your city, this week — says now.
Questions
Founders, investors, sales and BD leaders, operators and senior execs. Identity is verified via LinkedIn on entry; standing is verified on numbers — capital raised, headcount managed, P&L owned, deal count — never job titles. Matching is banded by seniority, so everyone meets peers of their standing.
It isn’t trying to be LinkedIn. LinkedIn is your public record — the CV, the posts, the followers — and it stays that way; we even verify your identity through it. Snaben is your private intent: what you’d do if the right person asked, which you’d never say out loud. No feed, no directory, nothing to browse. The product is the introduction.
Because only a matched counterpart ever sees it — someone who declared the opposite intent and sits in the right seniority band. Not your board, not your staff, not your employer. That’s enforced in the database, not in a policy document — and it’s exactly the sentence no public network can hold for you.
Free for members — that’s the model, not a promotion. The buy-side pays: investors, buyers and search firms pay for private access to matched intent. Senior people are the value in the room; charging them would be backwards. No ads. No data sales.
