“With Structify, our team saved 40 + hours of manual work per week checking and verifying 30-40 % out-of-date data we paid $200k for.” - David Loucks (CEO at Third 500)
For investment platforms operating in private capital markets, building comprehensive databases means navigating fragmented data across countless sources—tracking investors, identifying portfolio companies, mapping board relationships, and maintaining accuracy across millions of connections. It's the foundation of dealmaking, but traditional methods leave critical opportunities hidden in unstructured data.
That's where Structify comes in.
IQ500 transformed their investor and company discovery platform—converting disparate market intelligence into a powerful, searchable database of 1.5 million connections—without compromising data integrity. Today, their users can instantly generate precision-targeted lists, identify the right investors, and uncover board connections that close deals.
IQ500's vision was ambitious: create the first comprehensive deal exchange for global private markets. But their data challenge was immense. Investor information lived across SEC filings, news articles, company websites, and proprietary databases. Board relationships were buried in proxy statements. Portfolio data changed daily.
"We knew the connections existed—every successful deal starts with the right one-to-one introduction," explains David. "But surfacing those connections from unstructured data was like finding needles in haystacks."
Manual data entry couldn't scale. Traditional scraping tools couldn't understand context. And every day of delay meant missed opportunities for their users trying to raise capital or find acquisition targets.
Structify gave IQ500 the capability to process vast amounts of unstructured market data while maintaining the nuanced understanding needed for investment intelligence. Rather than simple data extraction, Structify recognizes relationships, investment patterns, and market signals—turning raw information into actionable deal intelligence.
The platform now continuously ingests data from hundreds of sources, structuring everything from investor thesis preferences to board member histories, creating a living database that powers precise target list generation.
