STRATEGIC INTELLIGENCE HUB

Read the 8-K Before It Becomes a Headline

A going-concern warning, a CFO exit, a new credit facility — material events hit the SEC the moment a company files them. Fundz parses every 8-K in plain English, correlates it with executive moves, hiring, and culture signals, and shows you the verified people to reach — so you're sourcing on the filing, not the press release.

The $200K Intelligence Problem

Investment teams spend six figures on data — and still miss the signals that matter most.

PitchBook

$20-40K

Per seat/year

Bloomberg Terminal

$24K+

Per seat/year

Capital IQ

$20K+

Per seat/year

Fundz Strategic

$1,788

Per seat/year ($1,188 first-year intro)

And those premium terminals still miss the signals buried in SEC filings. A going concern warning filed at 4 PM on a Friday. An auditor change three days before earnings. A multi-8-K filing pattern that screams distress. Fundz delivers real-time SEC intelligence at a fraction of terminal pricing — and surfaces signals those platforms were never built to catch: multi-role 8-K leadership shakeups, WARN layoff filings, and culture-health decline, correlated automatically.

One distressed asset flagged before it's shopped, or one portfolio risk caught at filing instead of at the next board meeting, pays for Fundz many times over. Bloomberg gives you data. PitchBook gives you data. Fundz gives you patterns — multi-signal correlations across SEC filings, executive moves, funding rounds, and culture health that no terminal surfaces. It's not either/or. It's the layer that makes your existing tools smarter.

How Investor Intelligence Actually Changes

The difference between reading about a deal in the WSJ and acting on the SEC filing the day it's filed.

Before Fundz

Manual SEC filing review — analysts skimming EDGAR hoping to catch material events

Delayed Crunchbase and PitchBook alerts — signals arrive hours or days after the filing

Generic deal databases with no timing intelligence or urgency scoring

No multi-signal correlation — a CEO departure, auditor change, and debt filing are three separate data points

Cold outreach to targets with no signal context or warm connection path

Portfolio blind spots — material events at portfolio companies surface in board meetings, not real time

With Fundz

AI-tagged 8-K filings in plain English the moment they hit the SEC — no manual review needed

Multi-signal correlation: 8-K + website change + exec departure = distress pattern identified automatically

Predictive scoring highlights companies showing expansion, distress, or M&A readiness signals

FundzWatch monitors up to 250 company websites for changes invisible to SEC-only tools

Engage surfaces warm connections and drafts signal-anchored outreach for deal sourcing

Real-time portfolio monitoring catches material events the moment they file — not at the next board meeting

Strategic Intelligence Hub

Eight prioritized intelligence categories built from direct SEC 8-K filings. Every signal classified, ranked, and ready for action.

Critical Distress Signals

Going concern warnings, bankruptcy filings, and liquidity crises detected from 8-K filings in real time.

Audit & Compliance Red Flags

Auditor changes, restatements, internal control weaknesses, and SEC comment letters flagged immediately.

Material Contract Terminations

Lost customers, terminated partnerships, and revoked licenses that signal revenue risk.

Companies with Multiple 8-K Filings

Identify companies filing multiple 8-Ks in short windows — a leading indicator of material change.

New Debt Facilities

Credit agreements, revolving facilities, and convertible notes — track who is raising capital and on what terms.

Corporate Restructuring

Divestitures, spin-offs, reorganizations, and asset sales that reshape corporate structure.

Executive Leadership Transitions

CEO, CFO, and board changes — the earliest signal of strategic pivot or governance shift.

M&A Deal Pipeline

Acquisitions, mergers, tender offers, and definitive agreements tracked from filing to close.

The Complete Intelligence Platform

Seven integrated intelligence layers — from SEC signal detection to warm deal sourcing outreach — that give investors a decisive information advantage.

1

Prioritized 8-K signals across 8 categories — distress, M&A, leadership, debt, restructuring, and more. The command center for SEC intelligence.

2

SEC 8-K Intelligence

Every material event filed with the SEC, parsed and categorized. Full-text search, company tracking, and real-time alerts.

When a signal matches your thesis, Engage surfaces warm connections and drafts personalized outreach — reaching founders and executives before bankers package the deal.

6

Signal-anchored LinkedIn outreach that references the specific trigger event. Not cold prospecting — contextual conversations that open doors.

7

WorkVibz™

Every Stage of the Deal Lifecycle

From sourcing the deal to monitoring the portfolio company two years later — Fundz is the intelligence layer that never sleeps.

Identify acquisition targets, distressed assets, and companies raising capital before competitors see them.

ENGAGE FOR DEAL SOURCING

Signal-Triggered Outreach That Opens Doors

Even in PE/VC, warm intros win. When Fundz detects a signal matching your investment thesis, Engage helps you reach the right people with the right context — before the deal hits the market.

1

Signal Matches Your Thesis

A mid-market SaaS company files an 8-K showing a new $50M credit facility and CEO transition. That matches your growth-stage thesis perfectly.

2

AI Builds the Briefing

Deep Dive generates a full intelligence profile: recent filings, website changes, leadership team, competitive landscape. You know the company before you call.

3

Engage Drafts Warm Outreach

"I noticed your recent credit facility and leadership transition — we have helped three similar companies navigate this exact inflection point." Signal-anchored, not generic.

4

First Mover Advantage

You reach the founder or CEO on the strength of the filing — with context, before the deal is packaged and shopped to every firm on the street.

The fractional economy matters here too. PE and VC firms increasingly place fractional CFOs, CROs, and operators at portfolio companies. Engage helps you connect with these professionals — the people closest to the operational reality — using the same signal-driven approach.

Plans That Scale with Your Team

Terminal-grade intelligence at a fraction of terminal pricing. Annual intro pricing available for new users.

Bloomberg Costs $24K/yr and Still Misses Signals

An AI agent can read a single SEC filing but has no structured history to recognize patterns. Fundz has years of temporal context — so a CFO exit, a new debt facility, and a culture-score decline at the same company read as one distress pattern, not three disconnected data points.

We use AI everywhere — for parsing, scoring, and summarization. The proprietary signal data underneath is what makes the intelligence hard to replicate: 11 real-time signal types, cross-correlated, each cross-checked with our Verified Signals review.
