About Us
OneGuide exists to make finding spot-on expertise simple.
We believe...
It's never efficient to
reinvent the wheel
This is why young startups bring on experienced hires, and the reason consulting firms can add value by repeating similar project types and sharing insights across clients. Small companies can’t always afford an FTE or a big consulting project, but that shouldn’t mean they need to fly blind.
Find river guides
who've done it before
OneGuide helps growing companies connect with operators who have tactical know-how, so that whatever the growth scenario, we can point you to someone who’s been there before.
Writing down knowledge
makes it retrievable
Major consulting firms build massive knowledge bases of previous cases, and large tech companies document expertise in internal wikis. It’s a huge investment, but also a hugely powerful archive. At most companies, and certainly across companies, most executive knowledge lives only in executives’ heads.
Document what
experts know best
Beyond just listing experts and their resumes, we conduct in-depth interviews to flesh out the topics experts are most knowledgeable about. That way, the knowledge is searchable and asynchonously accessible.
Nothing replaces asking an advisor questions
There’s a lot of great business knowledge out there in books, blogs, podcasts and conference keynotes. But no mass-media communication can compare to the value of asking a knowledgeable expert specific questions about the situation you’re facing.
Facilitate live
calls and coaching
OneGuide takes the friction out of connecting with advisors. Too often the process of finding, vetting, and scheduling takes longer than time spent actually getting advice. OneGuide screens and categorizes experts up front so that users can spend less time on “get to know you” calls and more time digging into growth challenges.
About the OneGuide Team
OneGuide stems from:
- 5 years in PE Operations at Mainsail Partners, working directly with 12 SaaS businesses
- 2 years at Bain & Company, seeing the value of an internal knowledge hub to search previous work
- MBA internship at Amazon, learning the art of the 6-page memo and the value of documentation
About the Experts
OneGuide experts are current or former leaders with years of experience in their disciplines

For each expert who makes it onto the platform, OneGuide conducts a screening call plus an in-depth guide interview.
3. Users evaluate via guides
Platform users can pre-read bios and in-depth (2,000-3,000 word) guides before talking to an expert to ensure that they have the needed expertise and are the right fit.
