To connect and use the PitchBook Premium Connector, you need:
A seat-based, unlimited, or PitchBook trial license.
Single sign-on (SSO) credentials. For more information about PitchBook’s SSO steps, visit our Help Center article Getting started with single sign-on (SSO).
- A Glean Admin who can activate and permission the Premium Connector in the Glean Admin Console.
Usage
With Premium Connector access, you get:
- 150 tool calls per hour – In any 60-minute window, you can make up to 150 individual requests to pull PitchBook data.
