Your next acquisition may not be the one you are searching for
Most buyers do not need hundreds of businesses to review. They need a smaller number of credible opportunities that fit their strategy, budget and ability to execute. Tell Dealogy the following and it can start identifying and ranking what is genuinely relevant.
What you want to own
The shape of business you are looking for, before any single listing is considered.
- Target industries
- Business types
- Geography
The financial envelope
The size of business you are working to, and what you are prepared to commit.
- Revenue
- EBITDA or profitability
- Investment range
How the deal would work
How you would structure and fund it, and what you are trying to achieve by doing it.
- Acquisition structure
- Strategic objectives
- Funding position
What you bring, and when
The experience you would apply to the business, how you approach people, and your timetable.
- Experience and skills
- Culture and people preferences
- Acquisition timetable

Find. Analyse. Value. Build the Deal. Secure Completion.
Six stages, each one reusing the work done in the last. You can join at whichever one you are actually at.
Find
Define what a good acquisition looks like, then see a focused set of listed, broker, strategic and approved off-market opportunities that match it.
Analyse
Business information, financial performance, commercial factors, strategic fit, risks, people and culture together, so you can tell quickly whether something deserves deeper attention.
Value
Valuation tools, financial analysis, comparable information, deal assumptions and professional input, to form an informed view of value before committing further time and money.
Build the deal
Price, funding, consideration, risk allocation, seller transition, conditions, Heads of Terms, advisers and due diligence, with value and structure considered together.
Secure completion
Diligence, finance, legal work, documents, tasks, advisers, negotiations, conditions and milestones coordinated, with clear sight of what could delay or derail it.
Build value
Integration, growth, value creation, further acquisitions, portfolio development and eventual exit planning after completion.
Build your profile once. Use it to filter noise for good.
The Buyer Profile is the engine behind Dealogy's filtering. Every criterion you complete removes unsuitable businesses and concentrates attention on the ones most likely to fit, which is why it is worth the twenty minutes.
What you are looking for
The businesses that could ever be right, expressed as criteria rather than as a search you have to keep rerunning.
- Industries of interest
- Business types
- Target locations
- Preferred company characteristics
Size and money
The financial envelope, so nothing outside it takes up your attention.
- Turnover range
- Profit or EBITDA range
- Investment range
- Available capital
Structure and funding
How a transaction would actually be done, which sellers and brokers assess before they engage.
- Preferred deal structures
- Funding requirements
- Acquisition timescale
What you bring to it
The experience and intentions that decide whether you are the right owner, not just a capable one.
- Acquisition experience
- Professional experience
- Skills
- Strategic objectives
- Culture and people considerations
One profile that keeps working while you do not
Instead of searching several websites, inboxes and broker networks over and over, you maintain one acquisition profile and Dealogy continuously filters, ranks and organises what is relevant. The goal is not maximum deal volume. It is a better-quality acquisition pipeline.
New listings
Businesses entering the market that fit your criteria, surfaced as they arrive rather than when you next look.
Potential matches
Businesses aligned to your stated acquisition preferences, with the reasoning shown.
Broker opportunities
Relevant mandates represented by brokers within the Dealogy ecosystem.
Off-market targets
Businesses that may fit your strategy without being publicly advertised.
Strategic opportunities
Companies that complement assets or businesses you already own.
Similar businesses
Related to opportunities you have already viewed or considered.
Future opportunities
Businesses that become relevant as your strategy evolves, rather than only as it stands today.
Search when you want. Let Dealogy filter for quality when you are not searching.
Both matter, and they do different jobs. One answers a question you have today; the other keeps answering the question you will have in six months.
Active search
Browse actively marketed businesses by industry, business type, location, price, revenue, profitability and other characteristics. Open to everyone, no account needed.
Intelligent discovery
Complete your profile and criteria and Dealogy filters and ranks opportunities without you rerunning searches, prioritising relevance and explaining why each business was surfaced.
Financial criteria matter. So do the people.
Successful transactions also involve expectations, beliefs, values and relationships. Dealogy captures both sides on the dimensions below and shows where you are aligned and where you differ, early enough for the conversation to be useful. This is intelligent deal alignment, not a guarantee of compatibility.
Objectives and ambition
Business objectives and growth ambitions on both sides, which is where two credible parties most often turn out to want different things.
Leadership and people
Leadership expectations, culture, people and employee considerations, described rather than scored.
Values
What each side will not compromise on, surfaced before it is discovered in a negotiation.
Priorities and intentions
Seller priorities alongside buyer intentions, so a founder can see the kind of owner you intend to be.
Guidance, not a guarantee
Alignment is one signal among several. Human judgement, direct conversation, due diligence and professional advice remain essential.
One workspace per acquisition, from first contact to completion
Businesses you are following, opportunities under consideration, broker introductions, NDAs, documents, conversations, tasks, offers, due diligence, finance, advisers, stages, dates, notes and next actions in one record. Less time administering a deal, more time making the decisions that matter.

Watching, through to completion
Watching · Potential Match · Initial Review · NDA · Information Received · Assessment · Management Meeting · Offer · Heads of Terms · Due Diligence · Finance · Legal · Completion. Every opportunity sits at one of them, and you can see the whole desk at once.
Your strategy. Your decisions. Less noise around both.
Dealogy presents AI as support for judgement, efficiency and decision quality, not a replacement for them. You remain responsible for strategy and decisions; the platform reduces repetitive work, prioritises the strongest opportunities and keeps the right deals moving.
Find and research
Surfacing what is relevant and telling you what is already known about it before you spend an evening on it.
- Discover relevant businesses
- Research target companies
- Compare opportunities
Read and summarise
Turning a document pack into the three things that actually decide whether to continue.
- Analyse information
- Summarise documents
- Identify missing information
- Prepare questions
Organise and progress
The administration around a live deal, which is where weeks are lost.
- Monitor deal progress
- Create task lists
- Prepare communications
- Organise due diligence
Flag and route
What needs attention, and who to bring in for it.
- Identify potential risks
- Highlight next actions
- Find appropriate professionals
Find the professionals you need
Relevant to the stage you are at, rather than to a directory heading. Bring your own advisers in instead if you already have them.
Finance
Funding and acquisition finance solutions.
Legal
Corporate lawyers and transaction specialists.
Accounting & tax
Financial, tax and transaction-structure expertise.
Due diligence
Financial, commercial, legal and operational investigation.
Valuation
Additional expertise when assessing business value.
Integration & advisory
Post-completion support and value-creation advice.
Find a broker who knows your market
Some buyers self-manage; others want professional support through the search. Brokers and M&A professionals are matched on what they have actually done, not on who paid for a listing.
What quality over quantity is actually worth
Acquisition search is expensive in time, adviser cost, management attention and opportunity cost. Success here is measured by the quality of the opportunities you progress, not the number you are shown.
Save time
Weak-fit businesses filtered out earlier, so your attention goes to the few worth it.
Save money
Less unnecessary diligence, advisory and financing work on opportunities that were never going to complete.
Improve decision quality
Opportunities compared against consistent acquisition criteria rather than against whichever one you saw most recently.
Protect value
Asking price, underlying business value and deal value kept distinct, because they are not the same number.
Complete with confidence
Gaps, risks, dependencies and next actions identified earlier, when they are still cheap to fix.
Real numbers, counted this second
We have not been running long enough to quote completion statistics, so we do not quote any. These are counted live from the platform as this page loaded, and the deal figures belong to the partner firms who declare them.
