FirmScope

[ Changelog ]

What’s new

Real shipped changes, in the order they went live. New firms are added to the directory continuously between releases.

  1. 30 July 2026

    Named contacts across the directory

    • Firm profiles, the directory table and the preview panel now show a named contact or a working inbox wherever the firm publishes one. Over 1,700 firms carry contact details today, including 1,100+ direct email addresses.
    • Every contact is labelled with how it was sourced: a verified person confirmed on the firm’s own site, a published general inbox, or pattern-based.
    • 155 firms whose websites have gone dark were removed from the directory. Every listing is checked both ways: firms are verified before they join the list, and delisted when they stop being real.

  2. 30 July 2026

    144 more London investment banks

    • The investment banking directory grew to 500+ website-verified boutiques, from Mayfair M&A shops to specialist debt and restructuring houses - the largest verified directory of London boutique investment banks anywhere.
    • Every new firm was checked by hand against its live website before joining the list.

  3. 24 July 2026

    Public London directories, annual Pro, and the Season Pass

    • Six public directory pages, one per vertical, plus a London hub - live counts straight from the database and a 25-firm sample of each list, for anyone to browse before signing up.
    • Pro Annual: a year of Pro for £149, two months cheaper than paying monthly.
    • Season Pass: three months of full Pro for one £49.99 payment, built to cover an application season. It never auto-renews - when it ends, access stops and everything you saved is preserved.

  4. 21 July 2026

    200 outreach templates

    • A tier-gated template library with 200 outreach emails, filterable by vertical and scenario. Starter unlocks the core set; Pro unlocks everything.
    • "Open in email app" pre-fills the template with your tracking address on BCC, so every send logs itself in the Outreach Log.
    • Fixed the "link is invalid" dead ends on email verification: fresh links on every resend, a resend cooldown, and clearer recovery copy at login.

  5. 20 July 2026

    Email sync, a setup guide, and shortlist export

    • Email sync: BCC your private tracking address on any cold email and it logs itself in the Outreach Log; forward the reply and the entry flips to Replied.
    • A three-step setup guide on the Outreach Log gets new users from zero to first tracked email in about two minutes.
    • CSV export now exports your saved shortlist with pipeline stages and save dates - built for working your target list. Everyone subscribed before 21 July keeps the full-database export they signed up with.

  6. 10 July 2026

    Private Equity joins the directory

    • 149 website-verified London private equity firms, strategy-tagged from buyout to secondaries.
    • FirmScope now covers six verticals: investment banking, consulting, venture capital, asset management, corporate law and private equity.

  7. 10 July 2026

    The research-terminal update

    • Table view for every directory, alongside cards, with sorting by name or recently added.
    • Firm preview panel: open any firm in a slide-over without losing your place in the list.
    • Keyboard flow: J/K to move through firms, Enter to preview, S to save, ⌘K to search from anywhere.
    • Research notes now live directly on firm profiles with auto-save, next to your outreach history for that firm.
    • Live facet counts in the filters, and a new About page rendered from the live database.

  8. 10 July 2026

    Three plans, a pipeline, and a proper mobile app feel

    • New pricing: Free (fixed cross-vertical sample), Starter at £14.99 for one vertical of your choice, Pro at £24.99 for everything. Existing subscribers kept their plans unchanged.
    • Saved Firms became a pipeline board: Saved, Contacted, Replied, Meeting, with drag and drop.
    • Pause your subscription for 1-3 months instead of cancelling; everything is preserved.
    • Mobile navigation rebuilt: bottom tab bar and a proper drawer replace the old collapsed rail.
    • CSV export for Pro, a getting-started checklist, and the methodology page.

  9. 9 July 2026

    Corporate Law joins the directory

    • 184 website-verified London corporate law boutiques, every one strategy-tagged.
    • FirmScope now covers five verticals: investment banking, consulting, venture capital, asset management and corporate law.
