Brainbase is a modern, end-to-end brand-licensing and intellectual-property management platform used by global licensing businesses to run their licensing, partnership and sponsorship programs from a single system of record. The product covers the full IP lifecycle — trademarks, patents, copyrights, licences, products and royalties — consolidating contract management, royalty calculation, sales-data reporting and contract-compliance workflows for brand owners, licensors and their partners. Founded in 2016 in Los Angeles by Nate Cavanaugh, Brainbase raised an $8M Series A in 2020 led by Bessemer Venture Partners and Nosara Capital, and was acquired by PYXiS Software Group (a division of Jonas Software) in 2022. The public marketing apex (www.brainbase.com) no longer resolves post-acquisition; the SaaS application remains live at app.brainbase.com and exposes a small public REST API (bearer/JWT) at api.brainbase.com with an auto-generated OpenAPI document at api.brainbase.com/docs. This profile was surfaced from the Bessemer Venture Partners portfolio and enriched by the API Evangelist pipeline from the live API surface.
