Village vs 4Degrees
Comparison · Updated June 2026
The short version
4Degrees was built by investors for investors. It auto-captures a deal team's email and calendar, scores the strongest intro to a company, investor or expert, and reads Crunchbase and PitchBook signals alongside. All of it runs on relationships your team already has. Village starts from a pre-built global graph, then adds the intro workflow, a public API, and a free plan.
