The one with the lawsuit they found too late.

FoundFact checks things you don't have time to check. A 3-page cited brief — business registration, owner background, litigation flags — delivered in 24 hours, before you commit to anything.

You already know this feeling.

A seller calls. You Google them. You check LinkedIn. You scan their reviews. An hour later you still aren't sure. Most of them don't close. That time is gone.

80%

of leads go nowhere

Most broker time is spent qualifying sellers and buyers who won't close. There's no fast way to find that out without first doing the work.

1–2h

wasted per intake

Manually checking Google, LinkedIn, Yelp, SOS registries, and news takes over an hour per target. At 5–15 intakes a month, that adds up fast.

Post-LOI

is too late for skeletons

Lawsuits, liens, and red flags found after you've committed to exclusivity don't just kill deals — they damage the client relationship too.

Three stacked dossier briefs representing the Mandate, Buyer Risk, and Succession research lenses

A cited brief on any target — in 24 hours.

The right brief for every stage of a deal.

When you submit a request, you choose one lens. Each is built around a specific question you need answered at that stage.

Lens 1

Mandate Qualification

Use at: seller intake — before you sign an engagement

Is this seller worth your time? Is the business real, the owner credible, and the deal clean enough to pursue?

  • Business legal standing & state registration
  • Owner background, prior companies & litigation
  • Active lawsuits, liens, and BBB complaints
  • Reputation trend from Google, Yelp, Trustpilot
  • News and media flags (last 3 years)
Lens 2

Buyer Risk

Use at: buyer qualification — before the data room opens

Is this buyer real, funded, and safe to let into your seller's confidential information?

  • Prior acquisitions and business history
  • Bankruptcy & insolvency history via PACER
  • Litigation exposure as defendant
  • Current company roles and ownership
  • Competitor risk flag
Lens 3

Succession Readiness

Use at: pre-LOI, or for businesses with EU/CEE connections

Is this business actually transferable? What succession risks will block or delay the deal?

  • Ownership structure & key-person dependency
  • Financial trend signals from public filings
  • Pending litigation and enforcement actions
  • EU registry cross-checks for CEE-linked deals
  • Transfer readiness scorecard

Not AI fluff. Every claim has a source.

FoundFact doesn’t generate summaries. It pulls facts from public records and links every finding to the original source. If we can’t verify it, we don’t include it.
