Piaar is a skills-matching network. Where LinkedIn monetizes resumes and feeds, Piaar makes introductions measurable — at events, and every week after they end.
Piaar is not announcing a financing round. We're looking for design partners and an honest read on what evidence would justify an investment conversation later.
LinkedIn's annual revenue. The market already pays billions for access to professional relationships — none of it proves a single introduction happened.

Every event's introductions and skill-matches are reported to its organizer as aggregate evidence of what the event produced, not a promise.
Event organizers, venues and institutions pay today for networking outcomes they can't measure. Piaar measures them.
Live on both stores. Android since 26 August 2026, iOS on the App Store since 5 September 2026.
All B2B revenue is invoiced on the web — outside the app stores, so no platform commission applies.
Conferences and trade shows already buy outcomes they can't prove. Piaar gives them a report of the connections their event actually created. Built, priced, ready to pilot.
Organizers pay to put an event at the top of discovery. First-party and labelled, with no ad SDK and no cross-site tracking.
Companies post a role and reach people whose skills genuinely fit. No one’s identity reaches a recruiter until they raise their hand. Built and gated — AI Act review first.
Free while the network grows. A paid consumer tier is designed, not built.
Technically ready is not commercially launched. Pricing is proposed, commercial operations are deliberately manual first, and no paying customers or recurring revenue are claimed. Unit economics and projections are in the deck.
Organizers spend heavily on networking and can't prove it worked. Piaar can. And every paid event brings its own audience — each customer is also an acquisition channel, so growth compounds instead of costing.
One founder, who owns the PIAAR trademark. Outside development was bought as a paid service, with IP assignment being papered now. Operating as a sole trader in Västerås.
Event platforms know what an attendee needs — until the event ends. LinkedIn keeps the relationship but never asks what you need.

✓ full · ◐ partial · × none — Piaar's own assessment of publicly documented capabilities, August 2026. Not vendor-confirmed. The last row is deliberate: Piaar is a skills layer, not an event-operations suite.
Capital is not a substitute for collecting these signals.
Store approvals, signing, entitlements, deep links, notifications and privacy flows verified on distributed builds.
One real professional event, with onboarding, skill completion, match discovery and introduction behaviour observed.
An organizer values the results enough to run — and ideally pay for — a second event.
Three things worth an hour of your time: challenge the market wedge and commercial model; help identify one to three event organizers for a measurable first pilot; and agree what evidence would justify a formal investment discussion later.
The immediate goal: one measurable event · one honest scorecard · clarity on what must be true next.
