Where deals actually break

Traditional deal flow arrives after the price is set.

On the buy side. Banker relationships bring mandated deals — sellers who have already decided to sell, set a price expectation, and run a process. By the time you see the opportunity, competitive tension exists. Every bid competes. The pre-process window — where deal terms are negotiable and founders have not yet formalised their expectations — has closed before you arrived.

On the sell side. Founders who have not assessed their product before a buyer does are reactive. Material risks surface during diligence — churn trajectory, unactivated cohorts, technical debt — as valuation reductions rather than as correctable findings. The time to address them was before the data room opened.

For intermediaries. A boutique advisory practice that cannot answer the product diligence question loses mandates to firms that can. And when product findings are not caught pre-close, post-close renegotiation risk falls on the intermediary who represented the deal.

All three problems have the same root: deal flow that is reactive rather than signal-driven. That is what this offer is built to fix.

Signal coverage

13 independent data streams. Cross-correlated daily.

Every acquisition-readiness score is produced by cross-correlating signals from 13 independent sources. Every score comes with the evidence trail that drove it — so you see why a company ranked, not just that it did.

Cross-correlation produces the composite 0–100 score

Signal sources are monitored continuously. Scores update daily. Source identities that would reveal competitive methodology are not disclosed publicly — the evidence trail per company is available to advisory clients.

Sprint SLA

Fixed timeline. Fixed scope. Full refund if we miss either.

The 14-day sprint SLA and full-refund guarantee are in the contract — not in the marketing. This is how it works.

Standard sprint

14 days

Clock starts on confirmed data access receipt. All deliverables delivered or full refund issued.

Expedited sprint

10 days

Available for all paid tracks. Standard price +25%. Same refund guarantee applies.

Scope agreement

Written

Exact deliverables, data access requirements, timeline, price, and refund conditions — confirmed in writing before the sprint begins.

Refund trigger

Missed scope or timeline

Full refund if agreed deliverables are not delivered within the agreed timeline. Processed within 10 business days of request.

Full refund if we miss the agreed scope or timeline. This is in the contract, not in the marketing. Note: refund does not apply to client dissatisfaction with findings, decisions not to pursue a sale, or valuation outcomes — those depend on buyer dynamics outside our control.

How this compares

Proactive signal monitoring versus reactive deal flow.

The comparison is specific — not that traditional providers are inferior overall, but that they serve a different part of the deal timeline.

vs. Traditional M&A boutiques

Mandated deal flow

Boutiques provide process management, buyer identification from their network, and valuation structuring. They do not deliver ongoing target monitoring, signal-driven pre-process discovery, or systematic product-layer diligence. Their deal flow is reactive: they bring what they have been mandated to sell.

"Boutiques bring you the deal they have. We show you the market as it actually is."

vs. PE-internal sourcing teams

Analyst bandwidth limits

Internal corporate development teams track systematically but are constrained by the number of sources they can monitor simultaneously. An associate actively tracks 20–30 companies. ProductQuant monitors 200+ across 13 streams. The team stays focused on conviction and execution — the engine handles breadth.

"Your sourcing team stays focused on conviction. The engine handles breadth."

vs. Broker networks

Late-stage listings

Broker listings arrive after the seller has decided to sell, engaged a broker, and anchored a price expectation. The pre-process window — where deal terms are negotiable and competitive tension has not been introduced — has closed. Signal monitoring lives in that 3–6 month window before a founder has run a formal process.

"Broker listings arrive after the price is anchored. We find the window before the process starts."

Pricing

Fixed price per track. Confirmed in writing before work begins.

All advisory engagements begin with a scoping call. No work starts without a written scope agreement.

Why this works

The structural commitments behind the offer.

Independent data streams per company, cross-correlated daily

Business-day standard sprint with written scope agreement

0–100

Acquisition-readiness score with full evidence trail per company

Full refund

If scope or timeline is missed — in the contract, not the marketing

Refund policy

What the guarantee covers — and what it does not.

Full refund is issued if ProductQuant does not deliver all deliverables listed in the written scope agreement within the agreed sprint timeline (standard 14 business days, or 10 business days for expedited). The refund clock runs from confirmed data access receipt, not from engagement start.

Partial refund is issued if one or more deliverables in a multi-deliverable sprint are not delivered due to ProductQuant’s failure, and the remaining deliverables are delivered on time — pro-rated to the undelivered items.

Not covered: Client dissatisfaction with findings (the sprint delivers what the data shows — unfavourable data is not a delivery failure). Decisions not to pursue a sale. Valuation outcomes — no refund for any claim that findings did not produce a specific multiple or transaction price.

Refund requests must be submitted in writing. Acknowledged within 2 business days. Valid requests processed within 10 business days by the same payment method.
