About GroupSkip

GroupSkip started because name-only skip traces kept failing on the deals that actually paid: tax suits with five or six defendants, probate files with a scattered set of heirs. A flat lookup searches one name at a time and hands back a wall of matches with the same first and last name. It doesn't know that the names on the deal are connected to each other, so it can't use that to figure out which record is actually the right one.

Founder Jeremy Nash spent [years in real estate] working this kind of deal out of [city], and the pattern was always the same: the owner on paper was dead, gone, or unreachable, and the real conversation was with whoever inherited the mess. [Additional founder background, e.g. prior company or role]. The tools built for individual lookups weren't built for that problem, so GroupSkip searches the whole group at once and uses the relationships between the names to verify each match, the way a PI would.

That's the design standard we hold the product to: put a PI on every search. A real investigator doesn't stop at the first record with a matching name. They check it against what else they know, who else is connected, who else might lead somewhere. GroupSkip tries to do that automatically, for every search, not just the ones that are worth paying someone by the hour to dig into.

• Evidence over claims. We run pre-registered experiments before we make a hit-rate claim, and we publish the results, including the caveats. You can read them at /research.
• Plain language. No invented metrics, no jargon standing in for a number we haven't measured.
• Permissible purpose. Every account certifies a lawful reason for every search. See our Acceptable Use page for what that means in practice.
• No selling your data. We don't sell what you search, who you search for, or anything else tied to your account.

GroupSkip is early. [Company stage/milestone, e.g. number of customers or launch date]. We'd rather tell you that plainly than pad the page with language that doesn't hold up. If you want to see the actual research behind what we claim, start at /research. If you have questions about how we handle data, our Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use pages cover it.
