Trillions in M&A still run on siloed inboxes and disconnected tool sets, with no clear way to capture what actually happened during the dance. We built the infrastructure to change that.
Every M&A task has a tool. The deal itself has none. dealhead serves the transaction: all parties, one structured environment, from NDA through close. The result is the only complete execution record in the market: structured data captured in real time across every participant, from both sides of the table. That record is the foundation for a deal intelligence layer and the first performance benchmark for transactional law firms – and it gets more valuable with every deal closed.
The Platform
Transaction Product
Automated checklists, negotiation tracking, document execution and signature capture across all parties, and closing binders. No subscription required to transact, fee-bearing from deal one. Priced at $5K–$15K per transaction, with multi-year licensing discounts available for serial acquirers.
dhInsight Intelligence Layer
An LLM-agnostic AI assistant embedded in the deal workflow. Contextual Q&A, automated issues list integration, precedent surfacing from a firm's full deal portfolio, and institutional knowledge preservation, without switching tools or changing how teams already work.
Firmetrix | Data Product
The first performance benchmark for transactional law firms. Real deal execution data becomes defensible, market-facing proof. Early adopters gain a compounding advantage as the benchmark scales, driven by competitive pressure rather than top-down sales.

Active transactions on platform
Following a Q4 2025 beta period, dealhead launched commercially in Q1 2026, and is actively building a pipeline of serial acquirers executing high-volume acquisition programs across multiple industries. An AMLAW 30 law firm has signed an MSA and is currently onboarding. Motor City Dental Partners (MCDP), a dental services organization acquiring and integrating practices across multiple states, reports a 10–25% reduction in legal costs per transaction.

Why dealhead Wins
Final documents record what was agreed. The concessions, timing, and reasoning behind them disappear at close. dealhead captures that record from both sides, in real time, because both parties trusted the venue. Most incumbents are disqualified from being that venue by their own business model: if the platform is owned by, built by, or embedded in one party's stack, the other won't negotiate there. Over time, dealhead becomes the system of record for how deals actually get done.
The Ask
Raising $2M seed across three priorities: building out the dhInsight Intelligence Layer and Firmetrix data product around a proprietary decision validation system (patent filed), scaling sales, marketing, and enterprise infrastructure, and expanding the core team. Currently in active discussions with a select group of investors.
