Buy-side M&A software for focused acquirers

Screen targets with live company intelligence, track every approach in a structured M&A pipeline, and run the process — NDAs, documents, tasks — in one workspace.

Why dealOS for buy-side

From long list to signed deal, in one system

Deal sourcing, pipeline management and an M&A CRM — without enterprise-platform overhead.

Company intelligence

Screen markets and build target long lists with AI-assisted company research drawing on live market data — sector, geography, size and funding signals.

A real M&A pipeline

Track every target from first approach through NDA, information exchange and offer — statuses update as counterparties engage, not when someone updates a tracker.

M&A CRM built in

Contacts, conversations and documents live against each deal, shared across your team — no separate CRM to keep in sync.

NDAs and documents

Issue NDAs, control access to information and share documents from the same workspace that tracks the deal.

Team workflow

Tasks, notes and per-deal permissions keep principals, advisors and diligence teams working from one picture.

Sell-side ready too

The same platform runs sell-side processes — teasers, buyer matching and data rooms — so both sides of your practice live in one place.

How it works

Stand up a buy-side process without a six-month platform rollout.

Define the thesis

Set sector, geography and size criteria, and build a target long list with AI-assisted company screening.

Work the pipeline

Approach targets, issue NDAs and exchange information — every stage change tracked per target, automatically.

Close with control

Manage documents, tasks and team access through diligence to completion, all in one workspace.

Frequently asked questions

 

What does buy-side M&A software do?

It runs the acquirer's side of a deal: sourcing and screening targets, tracking approaches through a structured pipeline (contact, NDA, information exchange, offer), and managing the documents, tasks and team access around each deal.

Where does the company data come from?

dealOS combines AI-assisted company research with live market data covering sector, geography, size and funding signals, so long lists are built from current information rather than a stale database export.

How is this different from a generic CRM or spreadsheet?

Generic CRMs track sales stages and know nothing about NDAs, data rooms or offers. dealOS's pipeline stages mirror an M&A process, statuses update from real counterparty engagement, and deal documents live with the deal.

Who is it for?

Corporate development teams, private equity and growth investors, and the advisors who run buy-side mandates — anyone who needs a structured process without an enterprise platform rollout.
