October 20, 2025 🚀 I built Dealert - a global M&A deal intelligence platform

Hey everyone,
I’ve been working in Private Equity for over a decade, and one thing has always frustrated me - access to deal data.

If you want to know who bought what, for how much, or what’s trending by sector or region, you’re forced to use expensive, closed platforms like PitchBook or Mergermarket. These tools are great - but they cost tens of thousands per year and are built for big institutions, not individuals.

That’s why I’m building Dealert - a lightweight, global M&A deal intelligence platform that tracks transactions across all sectors and regions.
It’s designed for investors, consultants, and researchers who want fast, transparent access to deals - without enterprise pricing or friction.

🧩 What makes it different

  • Global coverage - both private and public deals

  • Intuitive search and filters (sector, region, acquirer, date)

  • Growing database, updated daily

  • Clean UI, built for speed and accessibility

💡 Why it exists

Because information shouldn’t be a privilege.
I believe anyone interested in business, M&A, or investing should have access to real deal data - not just headlines or rumors.

👋 What I’m looking for

  • Feedback from early users - what would make Dealert 10x more useful for you?

  • Connections with data/API folks who love structuring messy information

  • Ideas for no-budget growth (yes, bootstrapped!)

Would love your honest thoughts — especially from anyone building SaaS or data products in the finance space.

    The problem you're solving is real — PitchBook pricing is absurd for anyone who isn't at a large institution.

    One thing worth thinking about given your user base: the search queries and saved reports you're storing are more sensitive than they might appear. A PE professional's search history reveals their investment thesis, target pipeline, and sector focus — that's competitive intelligence they'd never share publicly. If one user's saved reports or query history were accessible to another account, the consequence isn't just a GDPR issue, it's a trust-ending event for a user base that lives and dies by confidentiality.

    Your privacy policy mentions "industry-standard measures" without specifics — which is fine for now, but that answer won't hold up when your first institutional user or compliance team asks for details.

    We're the team behind Nautillo Pro — automated attack simulation that tests account isolation, IDOR, and auth bypass with HTTP-level proof for every confirmed finding. Happy to run a free scan on Dealert and share the full report. Given who your users are and what they're storing, worth knowing early.
