You can now sync Beauhurst data directly into Dynamics, and your Dynamics data into Beauhurst - so the two platforms stay aligned without manual updates.

If you’ve spent time tracking down missing company data, dealing with outdated records or checking multiple systems - this integration fixes that.

Find what has changed

See which companies you’ve worked with have grown, raised funding or expanded. Beauhurst data in Dynamics fills the gaps of industry classification, latest headcount, funding insight and growth signals.

Track clients and cohorts automatically

Keep your lists synced across both tools so you can spot the key updates automatically - no longer need to manually import your groups of companies to be alerted of new funding, leadership changes and innovation activity.

Find you next opportunities

Use your CRM data to exclude companies you’ve already worked with and identify new ones that match your criteria to find your next opportunities.

Don’t use Dynamics? HubSpot and Salesforce integrations are already available if you use those instead.

Built a Lens that surfaces exactly the insight you need? You can now share it with anyone on your Beauhurst subscription so your whole team benefits from the same research framework.

Open the lenses side panel on any company profile, enter your question to create a new Lens or edit an existing one, review the response, then click Share and save. Your colleague gets the same Lens to run across their own companies, no need for everyone to craft the same prompt independently.

Useful when your team is screening companies against shared criteria such as investment readiness, ESG exposure, or risk signals... and you want consistency in how that research gets done.

Try it now

You've been able to run our preset lenses to get fast, structured insight on companies. Now you can build your own.

Custom lenses let you ask any company research question, get an AI-powered answer grounded in our data, and save the questions that matter most — so you can run the same research reliably, across every company you review.

How to use them

Ask a question, get an answer. Type any question about a company directly into the lens panel. Focus your prompts on an outcome, rather than a topic, to get the best reusable outputs.

Save and reuse as lenses. When a question is worth repeating, save it. We’ll name it for you automatically, though you can edit the name any time. Arrange your saved lenses in whatever order suits your workflow.

Work side by side with your data. Lenses now live in a persistent side panel, so you can run and review them without losing your place as you move through a company profile.

What you can do with custom lenses

Custom lenses are most powerful when you have a repeatable research need that our presets don’t cover. A few examples of what you might ask:

• Screening companies: “Does this company operate in financial services and have there been recent signs of growth?” — build a qualification lens that reflects your target companies.
• Due diligence: “Produce a focused SWOT analysis of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats for this company.” — save the DD questions your team asks every time.
• Strategic analysis: “What signs suggest this company might be family owned?” — apply a consistent lens across a category to spot patterns.

Until now, lenses gave you fast answers to our questions. Custom lenses put the research agenda in your hands, making it possible to encode your own questions directly into your workflow.

Every answer is grounded in our data, so you get the consistency of a reliable, structured process with the flexibility of asking open-ended questions.

We've just launched Deal Lifecycles, giving you a clearer picture of what's really happening in the UK and German deal spaces.

You can now see whether a deal is:
- Pending
- Completed
- Dormant
- Cancelled

We are now analysing Person of Significant control filings to find the signal amongst the noise and identify acquisitions that never make the press. Only 15% of these filings represent true acquisitions and our team of expert data curators review every one to produce the clearest picture of UK acquisitions.

Sell-side M&A - Get richer potential buyer lists based on actual acquisition behaviour.
Wealth managers - Spot exit events no one else sees and gain new potential HNW clients before competitors know to look.
Client monitoring - Know about ownership changes immediately.
Due diligence - Gain a faster understanding of corporate structure changes vs. waiting for yearly confirmation statements.
Public sector - Improve your impact reporting.
Recruiters - Earlier insight into acquisition events for headhunting.
Sales teams - Trigger events (insurance, consultancy, change management) that no one else is chasing yet.

Beauhurst has lifted the lid on the unannounced acquisition space which makes up 40% of all UK deals.

Finding the right funds just got much easier. You can now use Natural Language Search across our Funds dataset to instantly build sophisticated investor searches in plain English.

• “Funds that have invested in London-based pharmaceuticals companies”
• “UK funds that can invest £1m in biotechnology companies”
• “Funds that have participated in at least 2 FinTech funding rounds”

Whether you're researching past participants in funding rounds or scouting for potential funders, Natural Language Search will translate your query into a structured set of filters - helping you start from intent, not from scratch.

What you can do now

• Search for funds in plain English: No need to know specific criteria names.
• Instantly build complex searches: Combining industries, location, investment amount, and more.
• Work simpler and faster: With a powerful and intuitive entry point for discovering funds.

Try it now: Select ‘Funds’ on Advanced Search and enter a natural language query to start exploring.

We’ve redesigned the creation flow to make it clearer, more transparent, and easier to set up Collections that work exactly the way you want.

This means fewer irrelevant alerts, improved visibility of your settings, and a smoother, more predictable experience when creating new Collections.

Give it a go next time you build a Collection from an Advanced Search or your Collections page.

From today, any confirmed but not-yet-completed acquisition, fundraising, MBO/MBI, grant, spin-out, or IPO will be published the moment we discover them rather than just upon completion. That means earlier visibility, stronger pipelines, faster BD, and fewer “why didn’t we see this sooner?” moments.

• Completed – closed deals
• Pending – confirmed but not yet completed
• Dormant – no activity for 12+ months
• Cancelled – confirmed to have fallen through.

You'll find Pending, Dormant, and Cancelled deals in:

• Advanced Search
• Company Profiles → Transaction and Timeline tabs
• Collection Activity Alerts.

It’s a small change with a big impact: you’ll now catch deals weeks earlier than before.

If you want a walkthrough or example workflows, contact your account manager, or check them out for yourself with this example Advanced Search.
