Find the deals worth a call before your inbox buries them.

If more decks arrive than you can read closely, the Deal Finder sorts them against your own criteria first. You drop the decks in. It does not connect to your email.

Sort decks and draft sponsor questions.

Covered by the Make-It-Right Promise

Just want the framework?

Educational tool. It sorts by your criteria and open questions. It does not recommend any deal.

You decide what a good fit looks like.

Then the Deal Finder:

  • Sorts each deck against your own buy box

  • Pulls seven key facts from every deck

  • Lists what is missing

  • Drafts the questions to ask each sponsor

  • Keeps a log of your pipeline

Why I created this

When I worked in brokerage selling commercial real estate, I was sending offering materials to principals, and the complaint I heard most was volume: hundreds of submissions a day. They didn't see the email I sent with the opportunity to buy the property we were marketing. Unfortunately, good deals get lost in volume.

Simplify Your Deal Screening

How it works

You drop the decks you want sorted into the tool. It does not connect to your email. It reads each deck against your own criteria, pulls seven key facts and puts the deal in one of four groups: Matches your criteria, Ask about structure, Needs information or Parked. It tells you what is missing, drafts sponsor questions in plain sentences you can paste into an email, and keeps a log of your pipeline.

Heavily levered deals

When a deal looks heavily levered, it shows what changes if you added equity to lower the leverage. It also gives you questions to ask the sponsor about loan terms beyond the rate: prepayment, extension tests, cap length and more. It shows its work, so a second AI can check it.

Under an NDA

Use the Fact Sheet. You type about 30 facts into a sheet with no names in it instead of uploading the document. Read your NDA first, since the facts you type still go to the AI tool you use.

Which AI tools

Built and tested in Claude. Setup for ChatGPT and Claude Projects is included. It runs on your own AI account.

Who it is for

Investors who screen many decks at once and want a first filter set by their own criteria. It works on its own. You do not need the Toolkit.

Who it is not for

Anyone looking for a recommendation on a specific deal. No tool here gives one.

What it will not do

It sorts by your criteria and open questions. It never recommends a deal.

NEED SOME ANSWERS?

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with my own buy box?

The Deal Finder runs on your buy box, not mine. You set the hard criteria that park a deal and the soft criteria that open a question about structure, and the sort follows your rules. The Buy Box Worksheet walks through the twelve questions if you are still working out your own.

Do I need a paid AI account?

It runs on your own AI account. Some features, such as skills or Projects, may need a paid plan, and free accounts may limit file size and uploads, so check yours before you buy. The Quick Start shows a fallback if you cannot find a setting.

Can I use it under an NDA?

Read your NDA first. The Fact Sheet lets you type about 30 facts, with no names, instead of uploading the document, but the facts you type still go to whatever AI tool you use. A guide is included.

Does it connect to my email?

No. You drop the decks into the tool yourself.

What if the deck leaves things out?

That is common. The tool lists what is missing and drafts the request. Missing is not treated as a failed test.

Will it tell me whether to invest?

No. It sorts each deck into one of four groups by your own criteria and open questions, and drafts what to ask. A deck in “Matches your criteria” is not a safe or good deal. It only means your must-haves are met.

What if it does not work, or I get stuck?

Email support@investorscollective.co within 14 days of purchase. Under the Make-It-Right Promise we will help you get the tool working or learn to apply it. Support covers how the tool works only. We do not review your deals or give investment, financial or legal guidance. Sales are final on download.
