Frequently Asked Questions

What is an M&A deal structure diagram and when do I use it?01
An M&A deal structure diagram maps how an acquisition is legally organized — who owns what before and after closing, what intermediate entities (merger sub, holdco, SPV) are used, and how consideration flows. Use it during deal negotiations, board presentations, or regulatory filings to make the structure legible to lawyers, bankers, and executives.
Can it show both stock deals and asset deals?02
Yes. For a stock deal, draw ownership arrows from the acquirer through the merger vehicle to the target equity. For an asset deal, show the acquirer's subsidiary taking ownership of specific asset pools rather than the target entity itself. Describe your deal mechanics in the chat and the AI maps the right structure.
Can I customize the diagram after it's generated?03
Yes. Describe the example and request changes in the chat — the AI adjusts the diagram and explanation in seconds. You can add rollover equity, management incentive pools, debt tranches, or change jurisdiction labels with a single follow-up message.
Can I export the diagram?04
Yes. Export as PNG from the editor toolbar, or copy the diagram to paste into presentations and reports. The clean layout is designed to drop directly into pitch decks or deal memos.
