Already found a business? Start with First Look.

Before paying for broad diligence, ask which of up to three material seller statements can be supported by accessible records, which remain unclear and which need specialist attention.

How the enquiry works

Choose the scope, describe one question, receive a written feasibility and fee response, then decide whether to commission the work.

No mandatory membership, no transaction commission, no automatic paid engagement.

Direct research, without membership

Know what one evidence decision costs before you commit.

No membership, equity stake, introduction fee, success percentage or compulsory prepaid research credit. Each listed standard fee applies only to the stated fixed scope. A human must accept the matter, jurisdiction, inputs and delivery capacity in writing before paid work begins.

These are listed standard fees for the defined scopes. They are not instant card checkout prices. Select an offer and submit a direct service request. A payment request follows only after written acceptance. Fees exclude agreed third-party data charges, specialist services and applicable taxes. Research is not a guarantee that the business is safe or that a transaction will complete.
