OffDeal

AI-driven SMB acquisition screening and outreach

Overview

Offdeal.io uses AI to speed up acquiring small and mid-sized businesses for three kinds of buyers: large companies, private equity firms, and individual investors in the $5–$50 million range. It works in three steps: (1) define the target by screening millions of SMBs with many data points to find off-market fits; (2) have AI vet thousands of companies to create a tailored shortlist in minutes; (3) let AI craft and send personalized outreach to each target. The company differentiates itself by offering an end-to-end, AI-driven process focused on off-market SMB deals and mid-market acquisitions, making searches faster and more efficient. Its goal is to make finding and closing SMB acquisitions easier, faster, and more efficient for its clients.
