Overview
DealScreen turns a rough set of deal facts into a structured first-pass screen in minutes. Independent sponsors and searchers enter basic numbers — revenue, EBITDA, asking price, owner involvement — and get back a scorecard, a valuation sanity check, a red-flag list, and a draft one-page Indication of Interest memo. Built for the earliest, highest-volume stage of deal evaluation, where most searchers are triaging dozens of opportunities by hand.
