QL Exit Map

Roughly nine in ten venture exits are acquisitions, and every product on the market reports them after the fact. This board is sealed before the deal: each month, for every company on the QL roster with a plausible buyer, a ranked list of likely public acquirers with the evidence disclosed line by line — a corporate VC on the cap table, a named public rival, comps-map peers, all discounted by what the deal would cost the buyer. When a company is really bought, the sealed board grades itself in public: was the buyer on our list? Sealed claims are never edited, win or lose. Whether an exit happens at all is its sibling's claim — QL Exit Odds grades the when, this map grades the who (and Private Foresight the mark's next move).

The sealed board — this month

Sorted by map strength — the top candidate's evidence score. Every acquirer candidate carries its evidence: hover a buyer chip to read why it is on the list (corporate VC stake, named public rival, comps-map peer, serial-acquirer form) and what the deal would cost the buyer relative to its market cap. Deterministic, no LLM in scoring, no black box — and no odds that a deal happens: that claim belongs to QL Exit Odds.

Acquirer candidates are model output over disclosed public evidence — not reporting of deal talks, not an indication that any company is for sale or that any buyer has expressed interest. Private-market data is sparse; the roster records what its cited sources record. Nothing here is investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation. Past record ≠ future results.
