AI-powered M&A signal intelligence for middle-market and cross-border origination. We combine 10M+ private company profiles, 6,000+ monitored public companies, and 40,000+ M&A-related signals to surface opportunities before they reach traditional channels.
25+ proprietary signal dimensions from SEC filings, state registries, court records, job postings, broker listings, and more. Every signal scored, decayed, and cross-referenced through MAI's judgment layer.
When three specific signal types converge on one company, over half of those flagged complete an acquisition within 12 months — a 10x lift over the base rate. This is our highest-conviction indicator.
NLP scans SEC EDGAR every 15 minutes. Contextual understanding of transaction intent from 8-K, 10-K, SC 13D, and proxy filings.
Board-level declaration of exploring strategic options. Historically the strongest single indicator of near-term M&A activity.
Investment bank or M&A advisor retained. Detected through engagement letters and 8-K disclosures. Signals institutional commitment.
Hot companies, signal timelines, Iron Triangle alerts, and buyer-seller matches. All in one view. Updated every 15 minutes.
