Traditional research firms sell you a quarter of waiting and a static PDF. We compress the sweep with AI, keep humans on verification, and hand you a brief that stays current.
Six angles on every company, so nothing about the account surprises you later.
Legal entities, parent and subsidiary links, locations, property, and who actually controls the business.
Decision-makers, their histories, public statements, and the warmest path to a first conversation.
Filings, liens, funding and disbursements, IP activity, hiring velocity — the direction the business is moving.
Litigation, dockets, and enforcement history across courts, OSHA, EPA, CFPB, and federal rulemaking.
Press coverage, social presence, reputation signals — and what AI assistants tell customers about them.
Real-time checks against 40+ sanctions and adverse-action watchlists before you sign anything.
Roughly five dozen primary sources — government registries, court records, filings, watchlists, and live media — normalized so they can be searched together.
Primary sources, not resold aggregators. Deep Research runs on the same unified data layer that powers the whole Civly platform. Every finding in your brief traces back to the record it came from — a filing, a docket, a registry entry, a post — and a human analyst verifies the material claims before anything ships.
