Hi everyone! Hope you're doing well.

By way of introduction, I'm Rob - co-founder of Scribe, a private company data platform. We have information on >4m UK private companies and 450k investors; our goal is to help Searchers find off-market deals. I'm looking for your feedback! What data points are most valuable for you? Here's what we're thinking of building:

- Age of the Directors
- Rich industry classifications (not just SIC)
- Search fund-specific investors
- Automated outreach support to speak with target companies

What would you add? Feedback and thoughts all valid and very welcome. Thank you in advance!

Obviously the recent financials. How long the company has been trading. Industry multiples. Examples of similar deals or larger acquisitions by PE. List of competitors.
