How Conceptor M&A software works
Conceptor is purpose-built M&A software designed specifically for deal professionals. Our AI analyzes unstructured data from millions of companies—websites, product descriptions, market positioning, and more—to understand what each business actually does and how it aligns with your acquisition strategy.
- Define your acquisition thesis. Instead of filling out complex forms, describe your ideal target the way you would in an investment committee memo: "B2B SaaS companies serving mid-market manufacturers in North America with $5-50M revenue."
- AI maps the market instantly. Our M&A software transforms your thesis into a structured search, scoring companies on strategic fit, business model, customer profile, geography, and deal signals.
- Review enriched company profiles. Each target comes with business descriptions, market positioning, and key deal signals—everything you need to prioritize outreach without opening multiple tabs.
- Manage your M&A pipeline. Build curated deal lists, track progress, assign tasks, and collaborate with your team—all within a single M&A software platform.

Why choose Conceptor as your M&A software platform?
Traditional M&A software relies on static databases, rigid taxonomies, and manual screening processes that all deal teams use the same way. Conceptor flips that model: our AI-powered M&A software understands meaning and context, not just checkboxes and filters.
With Conceptor, you can search using the same language you use in strategy documents and investment memos, then instantly see companies that fit—even if they've never appeared in a generic industry filter before. That's how modern M&A teams uncover off-market, proprietary opportunities that create real competitive advantage.
Our M&A software integrates seamlessly with your existing workflow. Many teams use Conceptor alongside their current data providers, enriching our AI-generated insights with financial data, ownership details, and other proprietary information. Conceptor is designed to complement your existing M&A toolkit, not replace it.
Conceptor pricing: significantly cheaper than the competition
Conceptor is significantly cheaper than competing deal sourcing platforms like Sourcescrub, Grata, Inven.ai, and Cyndx, which are typically much more expensive.
Conceptor's Individual plan is $50 per month, self-serve, with no annual commitment. Your first 3 searches are free, so you can compare list quality against any competitor before paying anything.
M&A Software FAQs
How is Conceptor different from other M&A software platforms?
Most M&A software platforms are built around static databases with predefined taxonomies. Conceptor uses AI to understand what companies actually do, who they serve, and why they might fit your thesis—enabling you to search the way you think about deals, not the way a database schema was designed years ago.
Can we use Conceptor alongside our existing M&A software and data providers?
Absolutely. Many teams use Conceptor to generate and qualify targets, then enrich those insights with financial data, ownership details, or other information from their existing M&A software and data providers. Conceptor is designed to complement your current toolkit.
What types of M&A teams get the most value from Conceptor?
Teams that run theme-based sourcing, look for proprietary deal flow, or support many internal stakeholders see the most leverage. This includes investment banks, private equity and growth funds, corporate development teams, search funds, and independent sponsors.
How do we get started with Conceptor M&A software?
Sign up and run your first 3 searches free, no sales call required. Individual plans include Florence and Conceptor's 1M+ company and investor dataset. Enterprise teams can contact sales for the 25M+ dataset, waterfall enrichment, and collaborative features.
How much does Conceptor cost?
