DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE USING SOURCESCRUB?

My partner and I had a conversation with a SourceScrub sales rep recently. It seems like an interesting M&A platform used by mostly by PE firms. It's pricey, but they mentioned they could provide discounts to groups of search funds. Thanks!

I spoke to them and am still thinking about it. Please let me know if you decide to go with it how you like it!

I had a demo with them and liked the idea of getting scrubbed lists of companies + contact details for decision makers. Issue was cost. They also do custom searches, so may help when your starting out and the team is small.

For what it's worth I've probably demoed 20 data contact providers and find most of them to be pretty bad. DiscoverOrg is great for large companies (> $500m revenue), DealSignal is solid, and LeadGenius was by far the best (but very expensive).

Did you end up utilizing any of the companies you mentioned for a longer term?

Hey Courtney. I haven't made a decision yet. I'm waiting for my site to go live before I begin broad, formal marketing efforts. I'll be sure to keep you posted. Thanks.

Interexo's AI has gathered information on over 1 million private companies. It looks like we have to create a site and let you guys access it. We have info on the companies, decision makers and their contact information. The revenues for those companies range from $5-$500 million.

^[redacted]‌ did they mention to you that they would share memberships across funds? If so, I would be interested.
