Venn vs. Reveal
Two products in the same partner-ecosystem conversation. Reveal is a hosted two-sided overlap network. Venn is a ranked partner path plus a next action.
Built for two motions that often run together: newly hired account executives (AEs) and sales leadership who need a daily path into accounts, and channel / alliances / partner-program teams who run the partner motion. Crossbeam itself now markets Partnerships and GTM Teams (including MCP) because account executives and partnership teams share one motion. Many teams run both.
Reveal maps where your accounts overlap with partners who are already on the network. Venn ranks which partner can walk you in and ghost-writes the intro — whether or not that partner joined a hosted graph. Many teams run both.
Hunch, then the check: a full overlap map and an empty calendar usually means the shared logo never became a forwarded intro. Verify on your own list — load accounts and partner data and see whether each target has a ranked path and a next action.
Venn does not replace CRM, PRM, Gong, or a hosted overlap network you already run. Customers such as Cyera, Cyderes, Rubrik, Salt Security, and Semperis use Venn — they are customers, not competitors. Venn is not a cybersecurity vendor.
Partners do not have to join Venn. PartnerTap already accepts CSV uploads, so 'partners don't need to join' is not unique. The difference is ranked warm paths, a ghost-written intro, live account signals, and BVA attribution in one workspace — partner participation stays optional.

Frequently asked questions
Is Venn a replacement for Reveal?
Not exactly. Reveal is a hosted two-sided overlap network — both partners join and share data inside the platform. Venn is an account-first co-sell workspace: you bring your accounts and partner data, and Venn ranks warm paths, drafts the intro, and runs the sequence. Many teams run both, keeping Reveal for ecosystem reporting and Venn as the daily workspace for reps and partner managers.
Is Venn for AEs or for partner teams?
Both. Newly hired account executives and sales leadership use Venn as a daily workspace — walk into every call knowing the right account, the right partner to bring in, and the opening line, with the intro already drafted. Channel, alliances, and CAM leaders use it to rank warm paths across the book, replace overlap spreadsheets, and report BVA to leadership. Never CAM-only.
Do my partners need to be on Venn for it to work?
No. Venn loads your accounts and partner data, ranks warm paths into every target, and drafts intros whether or not the partner is on the platform. You can share a link and let a partner upload a CSV. PartnerTap already accepts CSV — the differentiator isn't the upload. It's the ranked path, ghost-written intro, live signals, and BVA attribution that follow.
How much does Venn cost compared to Reveal?
Venn is self-serve: a 14-day trial (card required), then $100 per user per month.
