Straight answers.

Honestly, a capable operator can scrape the web and write something that looks similar. The difference isn't finding information — it's applying a repeatable measurement framework that turns messy public signals into a comparable, decision-useful read of execution capability and risk. A stable factor model buckets the signals and translates them into execution indices — decision velocity, political friction, network health, change readiness, and more — each with explicit confidence and gating conditions.

The first version is easy; the hard part is repeatability and governance — preventing drift, keeping recency discipline, and making sure two people don't produce two different answers for the same target. A productized method reduces that variance and saves senior time. You can build it — the real question is whether you want to run a permanent internal diligence lab to keep it consistent.

Those tools measure culture. IntegrisIQ turns execution into a decision. The same index architecture runs from public-signal screening through direct validation, so your team isn't re-learning a new model at each stage. Every output separates evidence from inference, assigns confidence, and ships a traceable Signal Log — built to survive an investment-committee or procurement forum, not to sit in a sentiment dashboard.

And it moves on the deal clock — hours to days, where a survey-and-workshop cycle takes weeks. It's a judgment layer delivered as an artifact you can act on.

No — it's additive. Signal pinpoints where the execution issues are and how they affect value; your operators or advisors own the deeper fixes. It coexists with your systems and your existing reviews, and keeps the measurement and cadence consistent so improvements stay visible over time.

It's disciplined inference with the uncertainty made explicit. Tier A — SignalCard and SignalScan — is designed to surface the right risks, strengths, and gating questions fast, with transparent confidence. It doesn't pretend to be the final truth about the human system.

When a decision is high-stakes, SignalValidate converts the three-to-five gating conditions that matter most into measured evidence, through structured surveys and AI-led interviews. Scan focuses the lens; Validate proves or disproves the critical points.

For Tier A (SignalCard, SignalScan): public signals only — no data room, no internal systems, no employee access. That's exactly what lets it run before you can talk to a target, or across a whole shortlist at once.

Tier B (SignalValidate) adds direct measurement — short structured surveys and AI-led interviews with a few key roles — when you want proof. No systems integration required.

Yes, by design. Tier A instruments use public information only: no claims of private access, no fabricated sources or quotations, a clean separation of evidence from inference, explicit confidence on every material point, and an auditable Signal Log. Tier B preserves respondent anonymity and avoids disclosing sensitive individual-level data. The output is built to circulate through formal review forums.

Signal is built for enterprise governance. Tier A relies only on public signals; Tier B measurement is anonymized and avoids sensitive individual-level disclosure. For current data-processing terms, our security posture, and a DPA, contact us.

A SignalCard is a 1–2 hour triage; a SignalScan is 2–3 business days (expedited in hours for a live forum); a SignalValidate runs about 2–3 weeks. Because it's survey-first and integration-light, it can run during diligence or inside the first 90 days post-close — well before the traditional 100-day plan.

The same decision-grade artifacts every time: a Decision Brief (Proceed / Conditional / No-Go, with explicit conditions), an Evidence Log (every claim traced, with confidence), and Mitigation Exhibits (contract-ready governance — cadence, escalation, accountability maps, pass/fail gates). They drop straight into your IC memo, LOI, or 100-day plan.

Nine execution indices — structural mood, conveying practices, network health, political friction, change maturity & readiness, leadership cohesion, trust & accountability, innovation capacity, and decision velocity — rolling up to an Execution Capability score and a Risk score. The same framework carries across every product. See the method →

Built first for private-equity and M&A deal teams — origination through exit, in the language of IC memos and 100-day plans. The same instrument extends to enterprise partner ecosystems and to supplier and procurement decisions, where reading third-party execution matters just as much. See the markets →

Everything is priced in Signal Credits — a single unit that carries across on-demand orders, prepaid packs, and subscriptions. A SignalCard is the entry point (10 credits, ≈ $850) and sits deliberately under the $1,000 procurement threshold, so a first read needs no approval cycle.
