One platform. Every signal your deal depends on.
ProbeDigital centralises competitive intelligence, deal sourcing, and private company financials into one auditable workflow — purpose-built for UK corporate due diligence under ECCTA 2023.
Legacy platforms leave the compliance layer exposed
The tools M&A teams already rely on — PitchBook, Capital IQ, D&B — were built for deal sourcing and financial benchmarking. None were architected for the UK regulatory compliance detail that ECCTA 2023 now demands. By the time a target reaches legal DD, the gap has already distorted your risk calculus.
Director Verification Blind Spot
No mainstream M&A platform surfaces whether a UK target's directors have completed mandatory identity verification under ECCTA 2023. An unverified director is now a material compliance liability — not a governance nicety.
Ownership Structures Understated
Global platforms give shallow UK PSC data. Beneficial ownership granularity — linking ultimate controllers, shadow directors, and offshore structures — requires authoritative Companies House depth that generic databases don't provide.
Hidden Liabilities Missed at Close
Registered charges and County Court Judgments are core to UK KYC — but buried or absent in legacy platforms. Uncovering them in legal DD, after price is agreed, creates renegotiation risk and warranty disputes.
Intelligence at every stage of the deal process
Most teams stitch together 4–6 platforms across a deal lifecycle. ProbeDigital anchors the compliance and ownership layer — the one every other platform leaves exposed.
Pipeline construction & market mapping
Build your acquisition pipeline with sector, size, and ownership filters. Identify targets before they enter a competitive process.
Compliance screening & risk validation
Before advancing a deal, validate that every director is ECCTA-compliant and the ownership structure matches disclosed filings.
Audit-ready output & portfolio monitoring
Generate exportable compliance documentation and monitor portfolio companies for post-close regulatory changes.
Where every other platform leaves the gap
PitchBook, Capital IQ, and D&B all score zero on director verification. ProbeDigital fills the compliance layer no legacy platform was built for.

AI Financial Valuation
AI-driven valuations and financial health scoring grounded in Companies House filing data — supporting deal pricing, IC submissions, and return modelling.
Charges & CCJ Screening

Uncover undisclosed connections between directors, officers, and corporate entities. Essential for conflict-of-interest screening and connected-party checks.
The ECCTA 2023 window is closing
The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 introduced mandatory director identity verification across all UK companies. From November 2026, non-compliance carries penalties of up to £10,000 per company.
An unverified director in a target is now a material deal risk — affecting deal structuring, warranties, and post-close regulatory standing. ProbeDigital surfaces verification status instantly, before the deal advances.
