Find private-company owners signaling a transaction.
Signals by KGrid structures evidence from public long-form conversations to identify owners discussing sale intent, succession, recapitalization, partnerships, and related transaction signals.
Who to call, when, and whether anyone got there first.
Each record puts the decision first: the owner and their role, the timing they stated, whether an advisor is already engaged, and whether the company fits your size band. The evidence sits underneath, so you can check it before you reach out.
