Find Sellers Before They're For Sale

Most deal teams don't lose deals because they can't find companies. They lose them because they find them too late.

‍

By the time a company hires an advisor, appears in a process, or starts generating market buzz, competition has already driven up valuations and reduced the opportunity for proprietary engagement.

‍

Join Grata for an inside look at Seller Intent, our newest proprietary data capability that helps dealmakers identify companies preparing to sell 6–12 months before a transaction reaches the market. Powered by a proprietary, behavior-based model and updated weekly, Seller Intent surfaces early indicators of sale preparation that traditional sourcing methods miss, helping investment teams prioritize outreach, engage at the right time, and build stronger proprietary pipelines.

‍

We’ll also demonstrate how Grata’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables teams to work with Seller Intent using AI. Learn how to query intent signals in natural language, automate research and prioritization, and accelerate sourcing by connecting Seller Intent to AI-powered assistants and existing workflows.

‍

During this session, you'll learn: 

• Why traditional sourcing signals arrive too late to create a competitive advantage 
• How Grata’s proprietary Seller Intent model identifies early sale preparation activity 
• How to prioritize thousands of targets using dynamic, weekly updated intent scores 
• Best practices for timing founder outreach based on changing intent signals 
• How to use Grata’s MCP with AI assistants to analyze Seller Intent data, identify high-priority opportunities, and streamline sourcing workflows 
• How leading private equity firms, corporate development teams, and investment banks are incorporating Seller Intent into their sourcing strategies 
• The validation behind the model, including how Seller Intent identified 98% of U.S. and 89% of EMEA mid-market to large-cap deals during 2025 backtesting

Whether you’re looking to generate more proprietary opportunities, improve outbound conversion rates, or put AI to work in your sourcing process, you’ll leave with practical strategies to help your team find and act on opportunities before the rest of the market.
