Create value from first screening to final mandate materials.

StrategyBridgeAI is a company and market intelligence platform that M&A advisors use from first screening to final mandate materials. It brings company, market and transaction data (around 50 million companies in more than 100 countries) together with target/buyer search, benchmarking and reporting in one workflow.

Target search uses chat-based, logic-driven filters rather than fixed industry codes to build target lists, designed to also surface SMEs and niche providers that classic databases miss. Advisors can enrich an existing longlist or start a new search directly through the platform.

Yes. The same target-search logic is used to identify strategic and financial buyers, including contact data, to support sell-side buyer identification and outreach preparation. For strategic buyers specifically, this also surfaces adjacent business models — vertically or horizontally along the value chain — including out-of-the-box candidates that a search limited to obvious, same-industry buyers would miss.

The platform provides benchmarks, multiples and historical development data on a consistent basis, built on systematic peer selection and rule-based (deterministic) calculation of financial KPIs and multiples rather than manual, ad hoc peer picks — giving advisors a repeatable, traceable methodology to strengthen valuation plausibility and deal arguments.

According to Nikolai Üstündag (WTS Advisory): "For longlists, we used to spend two or three weeks. Now we get it done in two to three afternoons." (translated from German) Results vary by mandate and data availability.

Hendrik Rathje, Partner M&A at Möhrle Happ Luther, describes the value as "speed and consistent quality — we don't want to be without it anymore. The quality of our work has increased as a result." He expects the tool to become a market standard. (translated from German) Dr. Dirk Pramann of Mition GmbH says longlisting is the platform's biggest value-add: "we now work systematically instead of subjectively — and significantly faster." (translated from German)

The database covers roughly 50 million companies across more than 100 countries with financials, transaction data, ownership structures and contact data, and StrategyBridgeAI is recommended by the Institute of Public Auditors in Germany (IDW) for audit-grade quality.

Yes. Company profiles include ownership and shareholder information alongside financials, corporate structures and contact data, so it can be used directly in buyer and target screening.
