The average searcher contacts thousands of sellers to find one company. That is the accepted cost of proprietary sourcing, and it never sat right with me. So I built the thing I wanted. It's called AcquisitionIQ. You describe your thesis in plain English: what you want to buy, where, how big, what you can afford. From there it behaves less like a search box and more like a small team. One agent builds the universe from authoritative public registries rather than a purchased list. Around thirty public sources across a dozen verticals: trucking, freight forwarding, dental, veterinary, home health, physical therapy, behavioral health, optometry, chiropractic, urgent care, wealth management, government contracting, mortgage. Licensing boards and federal filings, not a list somebody sold you. Another sizes the companies from filings instead of guesses. Employee counts from benefit-plan filings. Revenue from Medicare cost reports, federal award data, or origination volume, depending on the vertical. Another runs public-record diligence on every target before you contact anyone. Corporate standing with the state. UCC liens, and who holds them. Safety records. Federal exclusions and debarments. Regulatory disciplinary history. Layoff filings. Another ranks the results against your thesis and shows its work. Every score opens into the evidence behind it. When the data does not exist, it says so rather than filling the gap with a plausible number. Another watches the registries every day and tells you who was newly licensed, who just filed a layoff notice, who is suddenly distressed. Sourcing stops being a project and becomes a standing feed. Then it finds the contacts, drafts the outreach, and holds every message for your approval before anything leaves the building. And it writes the dossier you would actually want in front of you on a first call. Two things surprised me while building it. Of 100 trucking companies I pulled in one state, 35 had active UCC financing statements against their assets, mostly equipment financiers. Not a red flag on its own, but it changes the conversation you have with a seller. And public licensing data has caps that quietly hide most of the real universe. In one vertical, the honest count was more than double what the obvious query returned. The hard part was never finding companies. It was refusing to manufacture confidence about them. Most of the engineering went into making the thing admit what it does not know. Worth saying plainly: AcquisitionIQ is one application built on OpsHero, our AI agent platform. The agents, the data plumbing, the audit trail, and the approval gates are the platform. Search is simply where I pointed it first, because I am a searcher and I felt the problem myself. I would rather hear what is wrong with it from people who do this for a living than from myself. So I am opening it to a small group of searchers for 90 days, free, in exchange for honest feedback. Tell me where it is wrong, where it is useless, and what you would never trust in a diligence conversation. One condition: active searchers only, and I will vet each request personally. Nothing against the advisors, lenders, and other professionals here, many of whom I have learned from. But the feedback I need has to come from someone who is actually running a search and will feel it when the tool gets something wrong. If that is you and you want in, reply here, send me a message, or connect with me on LinkedIn. redacted
