What the report looks like
An excerpt from the sample evidence report. Synthetic data — it describes no real company.
| Claim | State | What the rows show |
|---|---|---|
| 45 active paying customers | CONTRADICTED | Distinct customers with explicit live status = 35 |
| USD 156,000 annualized recurring revenue | CONTRADICTED | Sum of explicitly recurring live MRR x 12 = 134460; annualized run rate, not recognized annual revenue |

How it works
- Send the claims and the export behind them. A CSV or spreadsheet export of customers or invoices.
- Each claim is recomputed from the rows. Using the definition the claim states — live status, recurring revenue, the period it covers.
- You get the report. What agrees, what does not, and what could not be checked, each with the rows attached. Use it for the next conversation with the seller.
What stays unknown
A claim with no readable source comes back UNVERIFIED. That is not a pass — nothing was checked. Churn is not computed from a single snapshot, because a snapshot cannot show who left. How each metric is defined.
Run it on your deal
EUR 1,000, fixed, for a bounded reconciliation of two metrics against one source table. A quality-of-earnings pass on a deal this size runs EUR 10,000 to 35,000, and published turnarounds range from two to eight weeks.
The button opens your own email app addressed to info@predealcheck.com — nothing is sent until you send it.

Next: public-source deal research
We are building a second service: research a company from public sources — registers, filings, news — and set out the evidence for and against the deal thesis, plus the questions to ask next. It does not fetch sources yet. See an illustration built from synthetic data.
