How Priorfile compares.
Keep the broad tools for breadth. Use Priorfile to decide which UK defence suppliers to call this month.
| Tool | What it is | Where Priorfile loses |
|---|---|---|
| Beauhurst | Every UK private company, with funding and growth data. The UK G-Cloud 14 listing prices it at £24,500 a year for up to five users. source | Breadth: it covers every company and sector. |
| Gain.pro | Private-market intelligence with sponsor and deal history, and integrations with DealCloud and Affinity. Price on request. source | Established CRM integrations and deal history. |
| Inven | AI search across about 28 million companies, with intent-to-sell signals. source | Coverage far beyond the UK and defence. |
| Tussell | UK public contracts and spend, including a defence procurement tracker updated quarterly. source | Depth of procurement data across government. |
Priorfile's difference. It joins the MOD's own payments to ownership, lenders and dated triggers for UK defence suppliers. None of the tools above makes that join, and none of them shows how much the MOD paid a company before anyone signs an NDA.
Where Priorfile is narrow. It covers one sector, and MOD payment data sees only the suppliers the MOD pays directly. See how it works for the measured gap.
