10xSignal for Search Funds

Traditional and self-funded searchers face the same problem: too much noise, not enough signal. 10xSignal filters the market so you can focus on what matters—building relationships and closing deals.

SBA-eligible filtering

Automatically flags deals that fit SBA 7(a) parameters—revenue ranges, industry eligibility, and acquisition structures that lenders approve.

Seller timing signals

Detect retirement announcements, succession planning gaps, and owner fatigue indicators before companies formally list.

Avoid auction traps

Know which deals are headed to competitive processes vs. opportunities where relationship-driven outreach can win.

"10xSignal found a deal I would have missed—a founder posting about retirement in an industry forum. I reached out before any broker was involved. That proprietary angle made the difference."

Most searchers spend 15+ hours per week on sourcing. Cut that to 2 hours of high-signal review.
