Traditional M&A Strategy Is Broken

Corporate development teams struggle to build comprehensive, data-driven strategies with outdated tools and processes.

Months of Strategic Planning

Traditional strategy work takes 3-6 months with management consultants charging $500K+ per engagement. By the time a strategy is finalized, market conditions have already shifted.

🔍

Siloed Market Intelligence

Strategy teams lack an integrated view of markets, competitors, and internal capabilities. Insights are scattered across spreadsheets, consultant decks, and individual knowledge, making holistic analysis nearly impossible.

🔄

Reactive, Not Proactive

Without AI-powered intelligence, corporate development teams react to inbound opportunities and banker pitches instead of systematically identifying and pursuing the highest-value strategic moves.
