FAQ
Questions and answers.
How do I achieve complete market transparency in a target segment?
You define the search field in natural language, and more than 1,000 AI analysts then capture every player in that niche across the DACH region. Because the search is based on register data rather than Google rankings, hidden champions with no online visibility appear as well.
How are acquisition candidates prioritised?
By a match score for each company that shows how closely a candidate fits the search field you described. On top of that, more than 100 dimensions are available per company — from business model and customer segments to products and financial metrics.
What do I get to present to management and the board?
A decision-ready profile for every candidate with business model, financial metrics, transaction multiples and risk assessment — exportable as a PDF, with the complete longlist also available as XLSX or CSV.
Can ProxDeal be integrated into our own systems?
Yes. The ProxDeal API lets you retrieve company, financial and shareholder data programmatically. There is also an MCP server through which AI agents such as Claude can access the same data directly.
Where is the data hosted, and is ProxDeal GDPR-compliant?
Sensitive data is processed exclusively in EU data centres in Frankfurt, in compliance with the GDPR and overseen by certified data protection experts. Transmission and storage are encrypted, and access is controlled through role-based permissions.
Does ProxDeal meet the requirements of the EU AI Act?
Yes. The development and operation of our AI components follow the requirements of the EU AI Act and established AI governance practice. This matters wherever internal policies tie the use of AI systems to regulatory requirements.
