IT IS NOT ABOUT VOLUME

The unglamorous businesses often have the better record

Owners assume this is for companies with a data team and a warehouse. It is not. Depth of operating history and how much visible reasoning the record contains move the number far more than raw volume does.

FINDING OUT CHEAPLY

Two minutes to learn whether your record is worth anything

01

Answer six questions

What does your company run on? That alone tells us whether there is anything here worth a conversation.
02

We tell you straight

If there is no deal, you will hear it on the first call rather than after weeks of process.
03

We review before pricing

We look at the record before we put a number on it. We do not pay for something we have not seen.
04

Terms inside a week

Typically $100K to $2M, agreed and papered within a week of that first conversation.

WHAT ACTUALLY CARRIES VALUE

The record is worth something because of how it was made

A decision with the argument still attached is worth more than a clean row in a table. Threads, drafts, and revisions carry reasoning.
Length of operating history matters. A business that has run for a decade has texture a well-funded two-year-old does not.
Ordinary work is the point. The material is valuable because it is what real operating looks like, not because it is remarkable.
Any company with real operating history qualifies. Venture backed, middle market, or founder owned.

THE DOUBT WORTH TESTING

What owners say before they check

Which companies qualify?

Any business with real operating history. Venture backed, middle market, or founder owned. The length and texture of the record matter more than headcount or revenue.

We are not a tech company. Does that matter?

No. Operational data means the working record of the business — Slack, Drive, email, spreadsheets, CRM, design files. Every company running on those produces it.

How much does Polyshares pay?

Deals typically land between $100K and $2M. Depth of operating history and how much visible reasoning the record contains move the number far more than raw volume does.

What does it cost to find out?

Nothing. Six questions, about two minutes, and there is no fee and no commission at any point. We are the buyer.
