Signal rebrands to Evertrace

Today marks a defining moment in our journey. Our new name, Evertrace, isn’t just a rebrand. It’s a statement of focus, ambition, and the next chapter of what we’re building.

When we started as Signal, our mission was to give investors an unfair advantage by spotting the world’s most exceptional founders earlier than anyone else. Over the past year, our technology has surfaced hundreds of thousands of companies in their earliest days, long before they appeared in the usual databases, helping our users save hundreds of hours they would have otherwise spent searching, filtering, and chasing dead ends.

The new name reflects how far we’ve come and how much further we intend to go. Evertrace captures the essence of what we do: follow the faintest digital footprints, piece together the invisible story of a company’s beginnings, and deliver those insights directly into the hands of the investors who can act on them first.

But detection is just the start. Our vision is to own the entire early-stage sourcing workflow so investors can spend more time on what actually matters: building relationships, evaluating opportunities, and making bold bets. Just as we eliminated the grind of manual founder detection, we’re now building tools that will help automate and orchestrate the steps that follow. Imagine being able to design and run your entire sourcing process from first signal to first meeting in one place, without the friction of switching between tools or repeating work.

We also believe sourcing should be as creative as it is efficient. That’s why we’re doubling down on expanding the kinds of signals we track, pushing into unconventional and high-value data sources that make our platform not just faster, but smarter.

We’ve always been obsessed with going earlier, deeper, and more precise than anyone else. With Evertrace, that obsession now has a name that matches our ambition.
