Scend is an AI-native research platform for private markets.

Unlike traditional data providers, Scend uses agentic search across web sources and 3rd party data APIs, in order to process the exact data you define. For each cell, Scend finds the documents, extracts and structures the answer, and links back to the supporting evidence. Teams use it to run deal sourcing, find buyers, conduct market research, and enrich the existing datasets they already have.

Scend is used by private equity firms, buy-side origination firms, investment banks, Corp Dev teams, other advisory groups. Most teams use it to move sourcing and research faster while reducing manual spreadsheet work.

We also work with customers in GTM and sales when they are building GTM datasets, especially in niche service industries.

Managing directors, GTM leaders, and business development leaders use Scend to set sourcing priorities and review output. Associates, analysts, sales and BD teams, and account managers use it day to day to process companies, run buyer searches, and prepare internal or client deliverables.

Teams use Scend for deal sourcing, buyer and investor discovery, market research, market mapping, and company and contact enrichment. Results can be reviewed and exported for downstream deal work.

Scend replaces spreadsheet-driven target-list workflows and manual enrichment steps (e.g. Clay). It also consolidates separate tools used for company data, contact data (e.g. Apollo), and market research (e.g. IBIS) into one source-driven workflow.

Scend does not force your research into a rigid schema or predetermined fields. You can create the spreadsheet or market map you need and define any column. For every cell, agents find the right source documents, extract the answer, and link back to the supporting evidence. The structure follows your question instead of a database deciding what data is available.
