Check whether the seller's numbers hold up.
Paste the customer table and the claim. PreDealCheck recomputes it from the rows and tells you whether the two agree.
The problem
Almost every SaaS deal that reprices does so for the same reason. The seller presents an ARR number built by management, the buyer's accountants rebuild it from billing system and contracts, and the two numbers do not match.

What you get
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| SUPPORTED | The source is present and readable. The arithmetic agrees with the claim. |
| CONTRADICTED | The source is present and readable. The arithmetic disagrees with the claim. |
| DEFINITION_MISMATCH | The source is present but the claim uses a different definition of the metric. |
| UNVERIFIED | The source is absent, unreadable, or the claim is incomplete. |
Three worked cases
A seller who overstates the count and the ARR. A seller whose books are clean and clear on the first pass. A claim that measures a different period than its source. Read all three, then the full evidence report with row numbers and source hashes attached.
Every case on this site uses synthetic data and describes no real company.
What it does not compute
Churn requires a starting cohort plus period events. A single snapshot cannot prove churn. Learn why and what we do instead.
What the rebuild costs today
A quality-of-earnings pass on a deal this size runs EUR 10,000 to 35,000, and published turnarounds range from two to eight weeks. The check above is free and runs in your browser.
EUR 1,000, fixed, for a bounded reconciliation of two metrics against one source table. Scope, definitions and what you receive.
