Clutch Launches First B2B Services Marketplace App on ChatGPT, Bringing Verified Provider Data Into AI Conversations

Enabling faster, more trusted B2B partner discovery inside ChatGPT

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As B2B buyers increasingly turn to AI conversations to start purchase decisions, Clutch today announced the launch of its ChatGPT App, bringing verified service provider data directly into AI-powered buying conversations.

As users shift from traditional web browsing to conversational AI, Clutch is investing in meeting buyers where discovery and evaluation are increasingly happening, inside AI-driven conversations. This initiative represents a major milestone in the company’s broader AI innovation strategy.

“Clutch has always been committed to helping businesses make confident decisions,” said Clutch CEO and Founder, Mike Beares. “As AI reshapes how those decisions begin, we’re not waiting to adapt; we’re building for where discovery is headed. Being the first B2B service marketplace on ChatGPT reflects our commitment to staying at the forefront of innovation and ensuring trusted data powers the future of business discovery.”

What Makes the Clutch App Different from General ChatGPT?

Unlike general AI responses trained on broad public data, the Clutch App is powered by a managed, permissioned content platform that delivers verified, organization-sourced information directly from Clutch.

This means:

  • Verified marketplace data, not just model predictions
  • Reduced risk of hallucinated, outdated, or unverifiable recommendations
  • Greater accuracy for high-stakes business decisions

For buyers making significant investments, whether hiring an agency or selecting a development partner, trust is critical. The Clutch App ensures information is grounded in structured data pulled directly from the Clutch platform.

Turning AI Conversations into Business Connections

The app is designed to help buyers find the right service providers faster, connect with them more easily, and access trusted insights without leaving their AI conversation. Simply ask things like "Which digital marketing agencies have the best reviews for SaaS companies?" or "Compare top web development firms based on client satisfaction" to instantly surface verified profiles, review highlights, pricing signals, and real client feedback.

For service providers, the Clutch App introduces a powerful new discovery channel that places verified profiles directly in the path of high-intent buyer conversations.

The Clutch App is now available within the ChatGPT app environment. Search for "Clutch" in the apps menu to get started.
