01 — Find
Sourcing starts with coverage. We map the entire market to your criteria, enrich every company into a clean record, and track down the right owner. Our Research Team combines industry-leading databases with data collection we built ourselves for maximum coverage.
01 Market Mapping & Criteria
Before we find a single company, we lock in exactly what you're looking for. Then we map every business that fits, not just the ones that are easy to find. Unlike other buy-side groups, our team cares deeply about exhausting each niche so you know you've turned over every stone.
Your search criteria is documented and kept current, so we always know exactly what you're looking for.
We surface more than 95% of the companies that match your criteria in any given niche.
We built our own engine combining industry-leading databases with proprietary scrapers. If a company has any meaningful web presence, we'll find it.
Our engine surfaces and screens companies at scale, but no target reaches your outreach list until our Research Team has reviewed it by hand. Every single one.

Research Team
Manual review of every target
Multiple researchers verify each company against your mandate before it's approved. Nothing is trusted to the machine alone.
Off-the-shelf lead databases are fast but never exhaustive. Off-the-shelf scraping tools collect lots of data that takes effort to sift through, but they still don't find everything. Blending them with our own real-time collection is how we exhaust each search.
The Evercap Research Team has tested virtually all leading company finding solutions and found none of them to be exhaustive. Some are better than others for specific industries, but not a single one has been able to find all companies with an online presence in our clients' areas of focus.
We built our own scraping and data-collection tool that finds 95% of targets in the first run. It is the only tool that has scored higher than 60% on our list-building exhaustiveness test.
Reach out and ask our team about the tools we've tested if you'd like to learn more.
We built a custom list building tool that blends best-in-class databases with real-time collection across the open web, search, directories, and social.
We build the complete universe of companies that fit your criteria, including the off-market names no single database holds.
For each company we resolve the decision-maker. We manually verify their name, role, and direct contact details - not a generic inbox or phone line.




























02 Company Finding
Once a company enters your universe, we enrich and de-duplicate it into a single reliable profile so your list is accurate, current, and free of noise.
One clean record per company. Duplicates are matched and merged automatically, so your list is never cluttered with the same business twice.
Verified mailing and physical addresses, ready for outreach.
Founding, ownership changes, and the milestones that shaped the business.
Every site and facility, not just headquarters.
The customers and sectors each company actually serves.
Culture and operating ethos, gathered from across the web.
Growth, hiring, and intent signals that flag the right timing.
A database revenue figure is a starting point, not the answer. We validate the true size of every company against real-world evidence before it reaches your list.
Starting point

PitchBook revenue estimate
$42Mest.
A modeled figure: useful as an anchor, but never trusted on its own.
We don't take third-party revenue estimates at face value. Every company runs through our own sizing process that validates the true figures against real-world evidence to confirm it lands inside the revenue and EBITDA ranges our client is actually looking for.
Size validation signals
Eight independent signals triangulate real scale.
Enriched record
Every company resolves to a single, complete profile.

Client Comments
Asset-light regional carrier; strong owner-operator network; smaller headcount but likely higher margin.
One source of truth
Any given company is scattered across dozens of databases, directories, and its own website. Each can have a revenue figure, a stale employee count, or a generic contact. We reconcile every source into a single profile our Research Team can stand behind.
03 Contact Finding
Finding the company is only half of it. We identify the decision-maker and verify every channel before a single message goes out.
We track down direct mobile numbers for owners then run every one through a multi-step phone-number verification process before we dial.
Every email address is validated before outreach, protecting deliverability and keeping bounce rates low.

We match the right LinkedIn profile to every contact, so outreach reaches the actual decision-maker.
Enriched record
Every decision-maker resolves to a complete, verified contact record.
