Hey everyone! We’re excited to finally launch ETA IQ, a financial modeling platform + CRM designed specifically for Searchers. You can sign up for free here:

www.ETAIQ.com

We built it from the ground up, inspired by the headaches we ran into during our own Search Fund process.

If you don’t want to read and prefer a quick video, we get it... here’s our 2-min intro video:




What is ETA IQ?

[1] CRM Built for Searchers: Start tracking deals and contacts immediately with an out-of-the-box CRM – no setup, no configurations. Easily organize key deal info and metrics to stay on top of your progress.

[2] Interactive Financial Model: Need to see if a deal pencils out, or a full cash flow model? The platform is simple for quick checks but powerful enough to handle complex structures, detailed projections, and investor terms/distributions. It will provide you with a comprehensive, error-free model for your own analysis and to share with lenders or equity investors.

[3] In-Product Education: Not sure about an accounting concept or SBA guideline? Virtually every term and calculation is clickable. Our built-in definitions, explanations, and videos are designed to make everything easy to understand, even if you’re just starting out.


Why did we build ETA IQ?

We ran into a lot of the same challenges most Searchers face—overcomplicated CRMs, messy spreadsheets, and hours spent trying to figure out equity terms, SBA guidelines, and accounting concepts.

It was a grind. So we decided to build something better — a tool we wish we had, that makes the Search process easier, faster, and less stressful.

We’ve spent over a year developing ETA IQ, and we’re excited to finally share it with the SearchFunder community. Let us know what you think—we can’t wait to hear your feedback!
