"InvenAI - Levio Review"
What do you like best about Inven?

Easy to navigate, regroup most of the info you need to start and analyze an M&A opportunity. Matthew was also very responsive and the quarterly update were totally appropriate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

Working with InvenAi and creating lists is just okay, I would say. An Excel plug-in that lets us import data live into an Excel sheet would make it much easier to manipulate the opportunities we select. For me, the lists themselves aren’t very user-friendly, and the way they’re displayed can be a bit confusing at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Inven AI: Time-Saving, Accurate Searches with Excellent Support"
What do you like best about Inven?

Inven AI has significantly improved both our workflow and the quality of our company searches. Within just a few minutes, it allows you to generate high-quality lists using a wide range of filters and search criteria tailored to your needs. One particularly valuable feature is the ability to identify company contacts, often providing their direct contact information, which greatly reduces the time spent on research. The results can be easily exported and later imported into our CRM system for further processing. I have been using Inven for over two years and have observed its continuous development throughout this period. The platform consistently improves, and the team behind Inven truly understands what is important. They are always friendly and highly competent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

There are a few small areas that could use some improvement, but I am confident you will address them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ebba Stelander of Inven

Thanks so much for the awesome review — two years together, time flies! 🚀 We’re thrilled Inven’s been boosting your workflow and searches. And don’t worry, those “small areas” are already on our hit list!

"Superior Semantic Search, But Needs Full API Functionality"
What do you like best about Inven?

I like Inven's semantic search feature the most; it's the best feature for finding the right companies. It allows me to apply specific searches beyond the regular filters, letting me dive deep into customer segmentation. The semantic search is much better compared to what we used before, which is why we switched from Apollo to Inven. Also, the initial setup of Inven was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

I don't like that Inven is not API ready for all functionalities and still requires accessing their platform for most of the features. Also, the API is not fully functional, which limits full integration with other tools, like our CRM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good platform"
What do you like best about Inven?

I like using Inven, as it is a helpful tool to find initial targets. Also, I am positively surprised by how much company information they have. I expected a tool to have less information on the smaller sized companies (as this information is more private and smaller companies have less obligations to make information public). I use Inven almost on a daily basis.

Also, I like the google chrome extension makes it fully integrated within my way of working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

I tend to use Inven to look for companies (both targets as potential buyers), but as it is an AI-tool, the suggested companies I get tends to decrease in quality after a certain amount. I noticed that the amount is equal (or less) in all scenarios.

Also, I tend to not trust the person database and I find the need to check LinkedIn (which is a source it uses) by myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ebba Stelander of Inven

Thanks for the great review! We’re happy to hear Inven’s data depth and Chrome extension fit right into your daily workflow.

Appreciate the honest notes on company suggestions and the people database—our AI is still learning, and feedback like yours keeps it improving.

Glad we can help you find targets and buyers faster every day!

"Easy-to-Use Tool with Accurate AI Search and Targeted Company Insights"
What do you like best about Inven?

Easy to use interface. AI-enabled search feature very helpful & accurate. Isn't overengineered to include elements that users don't need (just for the sake of it). Targeted company search with relevant employee data (contact information included). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

N/A ... there is nothing that I dislike about Inven. The platform is as advertised, economical, and does what one needs it to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"High-Quality Searches, Contact Info Needs Work"
What do you like best about Inven?

I like that Inven provides very high-quality search results, especially for company searches. The AI screener makes it particularly easy to find relevant companies we're looking for, which requires less time and effort. Compared to previous services, I find Inven's customer service to be of higher quality, and their search function provides better results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

I dislike the quality of the contact information. It's pretty low, just inaccurate, and it seems to over-pull from LinkedIn. There are cases where it pulls the same company name but not the right company, or pulls what appear to be fake profiles on LinkedIn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive and Efficient with Key Limitations"
What do you like best about Inven?

I mostly like Inven's user interface because it's truly intuitive, easy to use and understand, and pretty well organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

Mainly, I would say it's about the information that we receive from the companies. We think that it's very useful to find similar companies to the ones we are working with, like, comparable companies. But then the further information of each specific company is where I find the limitations of Inven. Because you cannot access financial data and you don't really have details of present transactions regarding the price of the transaction. So, yeah, that's quite an important limitation, I would say.

"Efficient Interface, Promising Features with Room for Growth"
What do you like best about Inven?

I like Inven's great user interface, which makes understanding what is going on in the program much easier for me. The nice AI features are also a standout as they help create filters and narrow down searches, allowing me to ask specific questions about companies. Additionally, the good revenue estimation model quickly gives me an idea of how sizable a business is. Overall, it makes searching for financial information and other details on companies much simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

I think some registered countries are not available now, but they are working on adding more and more countries to have better quality of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Invent: Disconcerting Efficiency and Simplicity"
What do you like best about Inven?

I use Inven to better understand my addressable market and create precise lists for our CRM. I particularly appreciate that Inven is extremely easy to use, especially thanks to its AI module which transcribes our research into lists very precisely and efficiently. Additionally, access to a centralized and qualified database is a major asset, providing information that is often scattered or incomplete elsewhere. Inven's customer service is also responsive and attentive. The initial setup was extremely efficient and easy thanks to the support we received. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

Nothing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Get to a yes or no in seconds"
What do you like best about Inven?

Inven helps me narrow down targets for my search fund. I'm able to find the kinds of companies I want to find in a certain industry very quickly. The most recent and useful feature though has been the google chrome extension. Any time, weather I'm working or not, I can instantly get a feel for if the website I'm on is a company that might be a good acquisition target, helping me uncover opportunities I never would have found another way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inven?

You need to know how to use the search function properly otherwise it's not going to be as useful as it could be. It is worth it to talk to someone at Inven to get regular updates on the tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
