For years, software deals had a familiar playbook: recurring revenue, retention, margins, growth, and defensible workflows. AI is making that playbook harder to read.
That is the tension Mark Williams, Datasite CRO, explores in his latest @AiThority article on how AI uncertainty is reshaping software dealmaking and capital allocation.

"AI is not the governance problem in dealmaking. The workaround is."
That is one of the key points from our CEO’s latest @ForbesTechCncl article on why AI belongs inside the deal room, not bolted on around it.
Most deal teams are not careless. They know better than to drop sensitive contracts, financials, and disclosure schedules into tools that sit outside the deal process - but pressure can change behaviour.
The better AI workflow is not “move the documents to the tool.” It is bringing AI to the place where the documents, permissions, and audit trail already live.

Want an in-depth view of EMEA’s deal landscape?

We can tell you that dealmaking isn’t slowing, but it's getting selective.
Q1 deal volume dropped 16%, and deal value jumped 28%. That tells you everything.
Capital is flowing hard into sectors tied to resilience, infrastructure, telecoms, and strategic growth, while weaker opportunities get left behind.
The smartest dealmakers are already repositioning around this shift.
Our new Deal Drivers: EMEA Q1 2026 is out now.
"Gross retention is 92%." Your MD asks where that came from.
Can you answer?
In high-stakes deals, AI output is only as good as the trail behind it. Citations, sources, zero data retention — that's not a nice-to-have. That's the new trust standard.
Hear how Blueflame AI builds that logic in, so deal teams don't have to think twice.

'Invite my users and set up all their permissions'. We’re entering a moment where dealmakers don’t start with a workflow; they start with a prompt.

Colin Schopbach, CRO Americas, recently wrote for @SCBrain on how tariffs and geopolitics are rewriting the rules of global dealmaking, and why waiting for clarity is no longer a viable strategy.
For decades, supply chains were built around one logic: lowest cost, greatest scale. That logic is gone.
Tariff volatility, export controls, and geopolitical conflict are now permanent variables - not temporary disruptions.
Companies aren't waiting for the dust to settle. They're using acquisitions to build resilience directly into their supply chains.
The data backs this up. Industrial, transport, and defense deals on Datasite rose 8% year-over-year in 2025 — sectors where supply disruption can halt production fast and replacement capacity isn't easily found.
The shift is clear: dealmaking is no longer just a growth tool. It's a resilience strategy.

Our CRO, Mark Williams, recently wrote for @UniteAi on how AI is reshaping software M&A, and the findings might surprise you.
Everyone assumes AI accelerates deals. It does.
But it's also making buyers far more selective.
Faster information is creating slower decisions. When committees see risks earlier, they debate them longer.
Growth alone no longer wins - buyers want a credible AI narrative around leverage, risk, and resilience.
The firms winning right now aren't moving fastest. They're underwriting with discipline.
For sellers: come to market with an AI story, not just a growth story.
