Hunter Suite finds UK companies likely to sell before they reach the market, gives each one a BUY or AVOID verdict and an offer range, then runs the diligence after your LOI. Seven instruments, one evidence trail, built on live Companies House data.

When you buy a business, a website, or a domain, almost everything you know comes from the seller — and the seller only shows you what helps the sale. Here's how buyers get caught:
Hunter Suite checks what the seller won't tell you — the true numbers, the buried risks, the things a first-time buyer would never think to look for — and hands you one plain answer: BUY, HOLD, or AVOID. Before you're in for a penny.
Step through the chambers. Your instrument will present itself.
The Hunter Suite is the intelligence layer that closes that gap. Seven tools, each built for a discrete moment in the acquisition. Run alone or in sequence — from initial discovery through to the final dossier.
The methodology is consistent: forty-seven signals, twelve weighted vectors, six tiers of data, one verdict. BUY, HOLD, or AVOID. The numbers read the same whether you are scanning a domain at midnight or reviewing a data room at quarter close. And once you commit to a target, The Counting House watches it live — every field, every change, instant alert.
Each tool serves a single moment of the acquisition. Two entry points — have a target already, or need to find one. Either way, the intelligence layer is here.
How does this work? →No target yet? Start here. Screen all 5.88 million companies on the UK register against your buy box, then score what survives for the signals that precede a sale — founder age, decades in post with nobody named to follow, a filing pattern that just changed after ten years of never changing. Ranked HOT, WARM or COLD. The only tool in the suite that produces a list.
Read any domain in twenty seconds. Pricing, traffic, backlink profile, brand strength, history flags, and a calibrated valuation. The first instrument to reach for when you spot something — and the fastest way to know if it is worth chasing.
A twelve-vector reading of any online business: traffic quality, monetisation, technical foundation, brand defensibility, growth posture. Drop a URL or a screenshot of the broker pack — get the verdict before the seller schedules the call.
A six-page investor-grade reading of any private business — Quality-of-Earnings normalisation, three-year trend analysis, sector benchmarking, twelve-vector risk matrix, valuation triangulation, and a four-move negotiation playbook.
You have a BUY verdict. Now structure the deal. Valuation model across bear, base, and bull scenarios. Deal structure across cash, VLN, deferred, and earnout. Three anchored offer positions. UK Heads of Terms generated and ready for your solicitor.
The final piece of the jigsaw. Upload the data room post-LOI — financials, contracts, statutory filings, employment papers — and receive a structured intelligence dossier across six dimensions in minutes, not weeks.
Run any tool alone. Run all seven in sequence. Each output flows into the next — Domain Hunter pre-populates Site Hunter, Site Hunter conditions Business Hunter, Business Hunter writes the brief DataRhunter expects to see. Then The Counting House watches everything, live.
“Forty-seven signals. Twelve vectors. Six tiers of data. One verdict. The Hunter Suite scores against a reference set of more than four thousand transactions — so the numbers you read have somewhere honest to stand.”
Every tier ends in a decision: a BUY or AVOID verdict, a risk rating and an offer range. Prices are published, in pounds, with no sales call needed.
