1 Confirmation can be reached through its website 1confirmation.com, its LinkedIn page and its X account. Its general enquiries address is first@1confirmation.com. Cold-mailing a general inbox rarely reaches a partner, so Private Equity List also lists the investment-team contacts for 1 Confirmation — names, roles, verified work emails and LinkedIn profiles — available on a Pro plan from $129/month (see pricing).

Yes. Every field on this page — profile, funds, investment criteria, portfolio and investment-team contacts — is available programmatically through the Private Equity List REST API and MCP server, so AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can query 1 Confirmation directly instead of scraping this page. One subscription covers both the web app and machine access — see API & MCP.
Private Equity List re-verifies investor profiles on a rolling cycle, pulling from the firm's own website and LinkedIn rather than a one-off import. This profile was last updated on 31 July, 2025. Something out of date here? Report it — we re-run that firm within 48h and get back to you.
