Competitive Intelligence
Competitive intelligence and business research. Competitor analysis, vendor and partner due diligence, market mapping, and key-person research for business decisions.
Companies and counsel hire us when they need verifiable, sourced information about a competitor's operations, a prospective vendor's reliability, a potential acquisition target, or a key hire whose background and reputation matter to the deal.
Complex and enterprise engagements in this category are delivered through Di, our affiliated intelligence consultancy, with Howler as your single point of contact.
Typical engagement
A typical engagement covers corporate filings and ownership research, financial-record review where public records allow, key-person background and reputation work, prior litigation and regulatory action review, identification of customers and former employees for reference interviews, and a written report summarizing what is verifiable, what is contradicted, and what gaps remain.
Use cases
What we cannot do, by law
- We do not engage in pretexting, social engineering, or any method that violates GLBA or state privacy law.
- We do not represent ourselves as customers or employees of the target company.
