The beta product
Understand the event. Follow what changes.
Special situations do not end with the announcement. We bring together official sources, terms, analysis and milestones to help you study a transaction and follow its evolution, with a method suited to each family.
Explore the public zones first. Member areas depend on an active account and its permissions.
Fewer scattered pieces. More context for deciding what to study.
The work combines automation and human judgment. Sources provide the facts; analysis helps explain conditions, uncertainties and next steps. Only information meeting its publication requirements reaches the member case page.
- Check the origin: official documents linked to the transaction, so you can verify terms beyond the headline.
- Use the right metrics: spread where relevant, rights and proration, distributions or sum-of-the-parts value, depending on the family and available evidence.
- Follow the evolution: new documents and changes to terms and dates within the same opportunity, without multiplying cases for every announcement.
- Recognise the limits: missing data or a pending review decision is not presented as a confirmed fact. The beta keeps those distinctions visible.
how it works
Finding it is the start. Understanding its changes is the work.
We find it at the source
We look for announcements in enabled sources: regulators, filing registers and investor relations. The official document is retained as evidence; a news report can alert us but does not replace that source.
Identify and validate
We check the company, transaction and terms. Complete official facts can be incorporated automatically where that workflow is supported; ambiguities and analytical decisions go to the team. Detection is not publication.
Monitor the same opportunity
Daily processes revisit sources to look for changes throughout its life. New documents belong to the existing transaction and its history; another announcement does not automatically become another opportunity.
Verify milestones and outcomes
Changes to terms, deadlines and states are checked against evidence and the required review. A close, cancellation or final distribution needs confirmation; an elapsed date does not prove an outcome.
A daily process does not guarantee new findings or automatic publication. Missing data, source failures and judgment calls require review. Each case's status and availability depend on its evidence and validation.
The 9+1 catalogue
Nine economic families. One qualitative radar.
Each family raises different questions: offer terms, rights, distributions, a new capital structure or asset values. Analysis and metrics must reflect those differences.

+1 · qualitative radar
Governance and control
Qualitative radar for holdings disclosures, board contests, defences and settlements. Each event retains its history and official evidence.
Context on who can influence a company and what is changing. A separate qualitative view: not a tenth economic family, a spread or a buy signal. Initial coverage draws on public US SEC filings.
The catalogue describes the product scope, not a count of available opportunities. Coverage depends on the source, country and evidence; a family may have no published cases. We continue to expand and verify coverage during the beta.
what we offer
From the filing to your workspace
Your monitoring dashboard
Bring together your followed situations and return to published cases that interest you. A personal starting point for updates and milestones, separate from the team's internal review queues.
Calendar
See dated milestones for published situations: deadlines, meetings and expected closes when supported by the evidence. An estimated date is not a confirmed execution.
Portfolio
Organise your research and practise with simulated portfolios, rules and a decision diary for supported cases. The platform does not execute real-money trades.
Sector reports
So you can better understand the corporate moves of the companies we follow, and what those moves set off in turn.
Community
What members are reading, rating and discussing across our fichas and reports. Comment on the deals and rate the ones you find useful.
Faro, your copilot
Ask about concepts and the information available for special situations. Faro helps you navigate and query the platform; it does not replace the filings or your judgment.
Before you start
Does every family have published opportunities?
Not necessarily. A catalogue family can be empty: a detected announcement may still need documents or validation. We do not create cases to fill a table or confuse missing data with absence of risk.
Is a new filing another opportunity?
When it belongs to the same transaction, it becomes part of its history. We check what changes — terms, dates, conditions or outcome — and what requires review. A new transaction needs its own identity, not just another headline.
What can I see without registering?
The product explanation, public situation zones and free Academy foundations. Member case details and private tools require an active account and the appropriate permissions; registration does not grant access to the team's internal work.
Is this an investment recommendation service?
No. We provide information and a method for checking it. Metrics depend on the transaction type: a spread is not appropriate for every family or for the qualitative radar. We do not promise returns or execute real trades.
Start with one family. Follow the evidence.
Explore the public explainers and learn the method in Academy. Create an account to continue in the member areas available to your access level.
Sonsolodatos doesn't recommend investments, doesn't manage money and doesn't execute real orders. It's the workbench: verifiable data, explicit rules and an honest record of every decision. What you do with it is up to you.
