My partner and I had a conversation with a SourceScrub sales rep recently. It seems like an interesting M&A platform used by mostly by PE firms. It's pricey, but they mentioned they could provide discounts to groups of search funds. Thanks!

I've been using SourceScrub for the past 2 years (for my day job, not search). They were originally built for the software space which is where I spending time sourcing. I can't speak for other industries but their data is good for software/tech sourcing. Some highlights:

- Really low email bounce rates. Due to the fact most software CEOs/founders/employees are on Linkedin.
- Good/easy integration with Salesforce
- Good UI and tagging conventions that lend well for Boolean searchers to nail down your criteria
- A lot of your traditional search fund targets often don't get picked up on SourceScrub. Especially if they are sub $2M EBITDA and don't attend tradeshows, make industry lists, associations, etc.
- Biggest con is price for searchers. They are definitely targeting funds with large budgets

Happy to connect directly with anyone if helpful to discuss further

Interexo's AI has gathered information on over 1 million private companies. It looks like we have to create a site and let you guys access it. We have info on the companies, decision makers and their contact information. The revenues for those companies range from $5-$500 million.
