Premium+ Tier: Succession Intelligence
What you unlock:
- Succession-Ready: Founder-led brands at natural transition points
Why Premium+?
Publicly labeling a brand “Succession-Ready” damages them:
- Staff leave (uncertainty about future)
- Customers flee (concern about continuity)
- Competitors exploit (weakness signal)
Premium+ protects the brands we serve while giving you first-mover advantage.
Why Signals Are Premium
The Positioning Principle:
“PitchBook tells you who raised money. We tell you who’s about to need it — and why.”
Attributes (free) help you discover brands worth knowing. Signals (premium) help you act at the right moment.
Timing intelligence creates unfair advantages. We protect brands by paywalling sensitive transformation signals.
Founder Transformation Signals vs. Brand Metrics
Most platforms track what brands achieved yesterday. Brandmine reveals what founders are positioned to do tomorrow.
| Brand Metrics (Backward-Looking) | Founder Transformation Signals (Forward-Looking) |
|---|---|
| Revenue growth rate | Capital absorption capacity |
| Market share | Export infrastructure maturity |
| Employee count | Succession transition readiness |
| Total funding raised | Scalability validation |
| Customer acquisition cost | Crisis-response capability |
| Product SKU count | Regulatory navigation sophistication |
Brand metrics tell you the score. Founder Transformation Signals tell you who’s positioned to win the next game.
Why This Matters for Investors
Transformation signals reveal founder capability during inflection points:
- Succession-Ready: Founder family signals acquisition/partnership window via active succession planning
- Investment-Ready: Founder has capital absorption capacity, clean financials, and investment-grade systems
- Export-Ready: Founder has navigated regulatory/distribution complexity—ready for cross-border deployment
- Scale-Ready: Founder has proven unit economics and operational systems that won’t break under 10x growth
This is due diligence intelligence that enhances brand discovery.
When you filter by signals, you’re identifying brands whose founders are positioned for strategic transformation.
