The CB Insights AI 100 selection process
The CB Insights research team picked 100 private market vendors from nearly 9,000 companies, including applicants and nominees. They were chosen based on CB Insights datasets – including R&D activity, proprietary Mosaic scores, business relationships, Yardstiq transcript investor profiles, news sentiment analysis, competitive landscape, and team strength — and criteria such as tech novelty and market potential. The research team also reviewed thousands of Analyst Briefings submitted by applicants.
