OUR MISSION
Make deal search and origination more accessible and efficient
There are great opportunities out there—the seed-stage startup with a great idea, low-profile, high-value SMB, creative M&A idea across unexpected verticals, the potential foreign lookalikes beyond the native english-speaking market. Yet most financial institutions regularly fail to spot them.
The problem is inefficient research. Traditional deal origination requires combing through multiple sources of information, most with disorganized, unstructured data. Creating a target list can take weeks. Even then, relevant opportunities go unnoticed. The list is ultimately limited by the searcher’s time and knowledge (what they should search for), as well as the accuracy and scope of their data sources.
The lack of readily available private and public information limits one’s opportunities. Cyndx is here to provide unmatched private information to make deal search and origination more accessible and efficient.
Quickly grow your deal pipeline
At Cyndx, we use artificial intelligence (AI) to make more opportunities visible. AI is the foundation of our search and discovery platform, not just an accessory or gimmick. This was crucial to creating a product that could see more coverage, search intelligently and save time.
See a more expansive coverage
Cyndx incorporates multiple types of data from a range of sources, both proprietary and traditional, providing more expansive coverage of the international private market than other platforms.
Search intelligently
Cyndx relies on natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) to map companies by what they do. It’s able to identify every player who belongs in a particular category at the current moment in time, without the blindspots inherent to human knowledge or static keyword-matching.
Save time and resources
Cyndx doesn’t just aggregate billions of data points—it analyzes them to tell you instantly where to act. With a search bar interface that’s familiar and easy to use, it only takes a few seconds to find the most promising targets.
OUR APPROACH
Superior investment data, exceptional success
How we conduct our business is just as important as the accuracy of the data we provide. Our core values are the principles that guide us in helping our clients achieve success. We distinguish Cyndx as a service leader and trusted brand which provides our customers with reliable investment data to facilitate the discovery of new opportunities.
