BUILT FOR THE WORK OF M&A
Research. Analyze. Move the deal forward.
Search for the business your strategy actually needs
Begin with the capability, customer workflow, or market position you want to acquire. Search beyond a familiar industry label and research what each company actually sells, who uses it, and how it fits your business. Build a view of the market and compare targets against the same strategic questions.
CorpDev.Ai’s company research and custom question columns help turn discovery into a working assessment. Go deeper on priority targets, build the rationale for engagement, and carry the companies into your pipeline. Your team can keep the strategic reason behind each name visible as the universe and relationships develop.
Develop the case behind the company profile
A promising profile opens a bigger assignment. What would ownership make possible? What supports the revenue model? Which operating dependencies affect the economics? Use the AI Analyst to investigate those questions and develop the target assessment, financial workbook, and investment narrative your team needs for the next decision.
Bring seller evidence into AI Room, connect findings across workstreams, and carry the conclusions into the model and committee materials. Inven also supports company research and analytical materials, including connected-tool workflows. Choose CorpDev.Ai for an environment that joins acquisition research with the room evidence, relationship context, decision artifacts, and operating plans behind the deal.
Connect target discovery, company intelligence, market maps, and custom screening questions with the next stage of the acquisition. Use the same workspace for pipeline relationships, source-backed diligence, financial models, investment memos, presentations, and integration planning.
