The Unstructured Data Problem
Across the lower and middle market, deal teams face the same recurring bottleneck: documents. Not dozens—hundreds. CIMs, tax returns, financial statements, HR files, contracts, payroll reports, environmental filings, operational logs, and an endless supply of PDFs, scans, spreadsheets, and emails that rarely show up in clean, usable formats.
This unstructured data problem is the silent tax on every deal.

IDP
Rebuilds into decision-ready data
Think of IDP as: A digital analyst that reads every document, verifies every statement, and traces every number back to its source.
An IDP engine like Tirekickr can:
- Extract structured financial data from PDFs
- Detect mismatches or anomalies across files
- Reconstruct multi-year GAAP-aligned financials from fragmented documents
- Reconcile claims in the CIM with what the source data actually shows
- Map content into standard diligence frameworks
Why IDP Matters in M&A
M&A isn't about chatting with AI—it's about validating accuracy, reducing unknowns, and uncovering risk.
Massive Time Savings
Eliminate repetitive manual tasks: reformatting PDF tables, correcting misaligned financials, normalizing categories, reconciling period data. What once took days now happens in minutes.
Accuracy That Humans Alone Can't Match
IDP processes every value, every statement, every page—all consistently, without overlooking anything. The result: A single source of truth you can defend.
The Truth Advantage
Most deal risk comes from mismatches between what sellers say and what their documents actually prove. IDP closes that gap by tracing all claims back to sources.
Diligence Arbitrage
Let machines process documents so humans can process decisions. Once data is structured and validated, specialists can instantly evaluate claims and build models.
Faster, Smarter Closings
The combination of speed, accuracy, truth-based validation, and automated analysis creates a simple result: Deals move faster, with fewer surprises and stronger conviction.
