The problem

Your target won't share financials until the LOI.

PitchBook costs $24,000 a year.

Your analyst is spending two days stitching together LinkedIn headcount, ZoomInfo estimates, and public filings.

Get the first read in two minutes.

01Stage One · The Estimator

An estimate you can defend in an IC.

Every figure on the page is cited. Every assumption is editable. Switch providers, change the lever, watch the number move. No black box, no “trust the model.”

Every source visible

LinkedIn headcount, ZoomInfo, Apollo, NAICS benchmarks, UCC filings — every input that built the estimate, with citations, in one place.

A lever, not a black box

Conservative, moderate, aggressive. Move the slider, see the assumptions and the resulting number change together.

Your providers, your weights

Keep the data sources you already trust. Mute the ones you don't. Re-weight them the way your team actually thinks.

02Stage Two · The Brief

When the estimate isn't enough, we go deeper.

For targets you're seriously considering. A custom diligence brief, delivered in 1–2 weeks, built from primary-source calls with former operators, ex-bankers, and channel insiders inside our network.

Not for early-stage sourcing. Best used when a target is on your short list and you need conviction before you sign an LOI.

About

Built by an operator, not an aggregator.

Vlad Shostak founded Internal Insight. He is currently Chief Technology Officer at Garfinkel Group, where he designs decision-grade infrastructure for a litigation firm — systems that have to stand up to legal scrutiny.

Before that, he held senior engineering responsibilities in large-scale operational settings including a large SEC registrant and global logistics company, requiring high reliability, structured process control, and cross-functional execution.

He holds a B.A. in Computer Science from Hunter College of the City University of New York and an MBA from the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas.

From Vlad

Every deal team I've talked to has the same problem at the top of the funnel. The target won't share financials until LOI. PitchBook costs more than a junior analyst. Someone on your team loses two days a week stitching LinkedIn headcount, ZoomInfo guesses, and filings into a number a partner will actually look at.

I'm applying the same standards I've used in SEC reporting and high-reliability operations to private company estimates. Every number cited. Every lever exposed. Every assumption editable. The first read you'd be willing to put your name on, in two minutes instead of two days.

If you're sizing a target right now, bring one to the call. You'll see exactly what this does on a real name in your pipeline.
