The sourcing problem, named honestly

You are spending 10–15 hours a week building lists that miss a fifth of the real fits

The manual search

Keyword searches, directories, databases, broker lists. You find the same companies everyone finds. The ones that never use the obvious keywords on their homepage — roughly 1 in 5 real fits — never appear.

Full-web screening

Start from 120M+ classified domains, screen against your thesis with LLM analysis. Every qualifying company surfaces, including those invisible to keyword search. Evidence for every inclusion and exclusion.

Where searchers win

Brokered deals are auctions. Proprietary outreach is where search funds win.

Brokered deals come with competition, price pressure, and compressed diligence timelines. The best search fund acquisitions come from proprietary outreach — contacting owner-operators directly, before they list, before a banker values the business, before other searchers find them. That requires knowing they exist. We map the entire long tail so you can build your own pipeline.

The companies that never list — founder-led, quietly profitable, no reason to sell today — are the ones worth reaching. Full-web screening finds them because it reads every website, not just the ones that tagged themselves correctly in a database.

Common questions

Straight answers

How is this different from Grata, Axial, or PitchBook?
Those are databases of companies that have been indexed and categorized. We start from 120M+ classified domains and screen every site against your thesis with LLM analysis. The result is companies those databases have never indexed — the long tail that doesn't self-tag, doesn't list on marketplaces, and doesn't appear in profile aggregators.
Do you cover SBA-sized businesses?
Yes. The web screening is size-agnostic. One-location service companies, $500K–$5M revenue businesses, sole proprietorships with a website — if they exist on the web and match your thesis, they surface. Roughly half of what we find in most service verticals is below the threshold PE firms care about — exactly the universe self-funded searchers need.
Do you cover companies outside the US?
Yes — the 120M+ domain universe is global. European, Australian, Canadian, and other markets are covered. Specify the geography in your thesis and we screen accordingly. The pilot is free regardless of geography.
How fast is the pilot?
Days, not weeks. You describe your thesis, we run the screening, and the first 20 qualifying companies are back in your inbox — typically within 3–5 business days, including a projection of the full-run yield.
Do you predict which owners want to sell?
No. And we decline to. No website signal reliably indicates willingness to sell, and manufacturing one would compromise the integrity of everything else. What you get is a defensible map of every company that matches your thesis, with evidence you can show your investors. Read our standards. Serious searchers tell us that page is why they trusted the rest.
Can I customize the thesis after seeing the pilot?
Yes. The pilot is designed to calibrate. After reviewing the 20 companies, you can narrow the thesis (only companies with maintenance contracts), widen it (include adjacent verticals), or redefine the ICP entirely — at no additional cost. Iteration is built into the process.

Start with your thesis. The first 20 companies are free.

Describe what you are looking for. We screen the entire web against it and send back the first 20 qualifying companies — with evidence for every one.
