How are people here managing deal flow during a search?

Hi everyone, Over the past 2 years I’ve been working through an acquisition process and one thing that surprised me was how fragmented the tooling is for managing deal flow. Between sourcing opportunities, tracking broker conversations, organizing diligence, and keeping notes across dozens of companies, I found myself juggling spreadsheets, email threads, and random notes. It started getting messy pretty quickly. So I ended up building a lightweight internal tool to manage my deal pipeline end-to-end - essentially a simple workspace where I can track opportunities, conversations, scoring/prioritization, diligence items, and progress through the funnel. One feature that turned out to be particularly helpful is prioritization. When you’re looking at dozens (sometimes hundreds) of opportunities at once, it’s easy to spend time on the wrong deals. The tool lets me score opportunities across a few key criteria (size, industry fit, growth profile, deal complexity, etc.) so I can quickly prioritize which ones deserve deeper diligence. It started as something purely for my own process, but a few other searchers who saw it thought it might be useful more broadly. Before taking it further, I’m curious how others here manage deal flow during a search. For example: • Spreadsheet • CRM (HubSpot / Airtable / Pipedrive) • Notion / custom setup • Something else? And more importantly - how do you prioritize which deals to spend time on when you have a large pipeline? If anyone is open to trying what I built & sharing feedback, I’d be happy to give access. My goal is to make something that actually fits the workflow of searchers rather than generic CRM tools. I also recorded a quick 5-minute walkthrough here if anyone is curious what it looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3BQnK9agF0 Appreciate any thoughts or suggestions from the community.
