What you can use it for

Built for the research rabbit hole.

You know the feeling — you start with one source and end up with 14 tabs, half of them useless. Pinpitch does the first sweep for you and shows where each fact came from.

PAPERS & ESSAYS

Get the lay of the land

Pull a structured overview of any company, organization, or public figure — the kind of context you need before you start your bibliography and citations.

CLASS PROJECTS

Build a project brief

Need to research a market, a technology, or a nonprofit? Drop it in and get a dossier with the public signals — funding, leadership, recent news, key facts.

PRESENTATIONS

Sound informed, fast

Walking into a class presentation or a debate? A few minutes of research gives you the named specifics that sound like you actually read the room.

What you actually get

A sourced dossier. Not a wall of text.

Every claim is tied to a public source so you can verify before you cite. No hallucinated facts, no fabricated stats — just the public record, summarized.

LanzaTech — sustainable aviation fuel
  • LanzaTech is a carbon capture-to-fuels company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Skokie, Illinois. Their gas-fermentation platform converts industrial waste gases (steel mill off-gas, biomass) into ethanol and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Source: lanzatech.com / About
  • In 2023, LanzaTech's Freedom Pines One facility in Soperton, Georgia became the first commercial-scale plant in the U.S. producing ethanol from captured carbon. Source: U.S. DOE press release 2023
  • The company went public via SPAC merger with AMCI Acquisition Corp. II in March 2023, trading on Nasdaq under the ticker LNZA. Source: SEC Form 8-K, Mar 2023
  • Major partners and investors have included ArcelorMittal, Shell, Suncor, and Microsoft (the latter as an offtake customer for carbon-removed fuels). Source: company press releases, 2021–2024
  • Direct example of industrial carbon capture at commercial scale — useful if your topic is climate tech, decarbonization, or sustainable fuels.
  • Sits at the intersection of policy (IRA tax credits), commodity markets (SAF blending mandates), and shifting industrial supply chains.
  • Real public financials and disclosed customer contracts — easier to source than most cleantech startups.

How it works

Three steps. About a minute per search.

No training video. No new accounts to set up beyond the free signup.

Type what you need

Enter a company name, a person, or a topic. Be as specific or as broad as you want — both work.

Pinpitch pulls public sources

We search the public web, read what's relevant, and structure the findings into a dossier with sources attached to each claim.

Read it, cite it, build on it

Use each source link to verify before you cite. Treat the dossier as a fast first draft of your bibliography.

Questions we hear from students

Before you sign up.

Honest answers to the questions students usually ask first.

Is Pinpitch free for students?

The first search is free — no credit card needed, no time limit. One search is enough to see how it works on whatever topic you're researching right now. If you need more, paid plans start at $49/month, which is built around sales-research use cases but works just as well for anyone who needs a lot of sourced briefs in a hurry.

Can I cite the output in a paper?

The dossier is a starting point — not a finished source. Every claim is tied to the public URL it came from, so the real citation is the underlying source (a press release, an SEC filing, the company's own page). Read the source yourself, then cite the source. That's how academic citation works anyway, and the dossier gets you there in a fraction of the time.

How do I know the facts are accurate?

Every line in the dossier has a source link next to it. Click through and verify before you cite. We're explicit that Pinpitch pulls from public information only — if something isn't on the open web, it won't show up. We'd rather give you a smaller dossier with verifiable claims than a big one you can't trust.

What if the topic I'm researching isn't a company?

It works best for things that have a public footprint — companies, organizations, nonprofits, public figures, technologies with a known vendor or research program behind them. For more abstract academic topics (philosophy, theory), a library database is still your best bet. Use Pinpitch for the public-record part of your research, and your library for the scholarly part.
