For consulting, M&A and transaction-advisory practices

Scale the research behind your pitches and client engagements.

Prepare the next proposal while delivering for current clients. We turn your practice’s methods into target screens, company briefs, peer benchmarks and industry points of view, with analysis your partners can examine and use in the room.

The pressure on your team

Research demand competes with live engagement work.

Preparing a pitch draws on the same people delivering current engagements. We screen prospects, benchmark peers and develop an initial point of view using your practice’s criteria, so your team walks in better prepared.

  • Time spent gathering evidence before a first conversation.
  • Rankings that need reasons a partner can examine.
  • The same research rebuilt for the next proposal.

What your team receives

Work you can take into the room.

Which clients to call first

A ranked shortlist against your practice's criteria, with the reasons and the sources beside every score, in a spreadsheet your team can re-weight.

Something to say in the meeting

A concise company brief with our assessment, the supporting reasoning and questions to take into the client conversation.

Research for engagement work

Company deep dives, benchmarks on the peer set you define, industry scans and white papers in your practice’s framing: document, spreadsheet, slides.

Capabilities

Choose a place to start.

How to start

One question, a fixed fee, a first read in days.

Your question
One live question, with the decision it serves.
What comes back
A reviewed answer with a point of view (a ranked shortlist, a diagnostic or a plan), with every source and anything unverified flagged.
The fee
Fixed, agreed before work starts, and scoped to fit under a partner’s or sole-source sign-off.
The timing
A first read in days, not weeks, then the reviewed brief on the date we agree.

If the first project earns its place, it becomes a recurring engagement on your calendar.

How we work together

Your method. AI research, analyst-checked.

  1. 01

    Frame the question

    Together, we agree the decision, research scope, inputs and what a useful answer looks like.

  2. 02

    Build the evidence

    AI agents gather company and industry evidence around your criteria, peer set and permitted sources, and cite every source.

  3. 03

    Explain what matters

    Our analysts check the agents’ work: they challenge the findings, check peers and calculations, and flag anything unverified before the brief reaches your review.
