IR Built for the SPAC Search Phase, Not After
$150/month. Built for SPAC CFOs. 24-month price lock. Cancel anytime.
Trust Redemption Projection
Weekly model of likely redemption rate based on trust yield, comparable cohort patterns, and shareholder concentration. Know your minimum cash before you negotiate the LOI.
Proxy Readability Scoring
DEFM14A and merger proxy drafts run through Loughran-McDonald and Gunning Fog before filing. Find the negative-sentiment leakage and the unreadable paragraphs before SEC reviewers and algo readers do.
LOI Optimization
Your LOI announcement 8-K is the biggest stock-moving event of the SPAC lifecycle. We pre-score every draft against the last 200 SPAC LOI announcements to maximize day-one momentum.
Founding Partner cohort
Recruiting from M3-Brigade, Churchill Capital, GP-Act III, and adjacent Tier-A SPAC sponsor networks. 10 cohort slots. 24-month price lock. Founding Partner pricing closes when slot 10 signs.
How AxonIR is different
Edison Group, KCSA, and Gateway built their playbooks for an era when humans read 10-Qs and journalists wrote stock summaries. That era is over.
Today, more than 70 percent of US equity volume is algorithmic. The first readers of your 8-K are NLP pipelines parsing tone, hedge density, forward-looking-statement ratio, and uncertainty markers in the first 60 seconds after filing. By the time a human analyst sees the document, the trade has happened.
AxonIR engineers every output for that reader. Loughran-McDonald scores every paragraph across seven sentiment dimensions: positive, negative, uncertainty, litigious, modal-strong, modal-weak, and constraining. Gunning Fog measures whether the prose is parseable in a single pass. A composite 0 to 10 score gives you a single number to defend with your legal counsel before filing.
The legacy firms cannot offer this. They are press-release shops with quarterly retainers. Our human IR partners stay focused on what AI cannot do, which is roadshow logistics and sponsor relationships. The analytical layer is AxonIR.

Frequently asked
How is AxonIR different from Edison Group, KCSA, or Gateway?+
Legacy IR firms charge $5K-$20K/month for human-only retainers focused on press releases and roadshow logistics. AxonIR is AI-native: every filing and announcement is scored against Loughran-McDonald sentiment dictionaries and the Gunning Fog readability index before it ships. Your output is engineered for the algorithmic readers that actually move SPAC trust prices day-of.
What does the $150/month plan include for a SPAC in search phase?+
Quarterly 10-Q pre-scoring, 8-K announcement readability optimization, proxy / DEFM14A draft scoring, trust-redemption projection model updated weekly, LOI press release optimization, and a monthly analyst-readable summary. 24-month price lock if you join the Founding Partner cohort.
When during my SPAC lifecycle should I engage AxonIR?+
Day 1 of search phase. Most SPACs treat IR as a post-merger problem and waste their pre-merger window. The trust-redemption math, proxy positioning, and target-LOI announcement are all decided BEFORE you have a target, and they directly determine your day-one trading.
Do you replace my IR firm or work alongside it?+
Both options work. Most clients use AxonIR as the analytical layer and keep a smaller human firm for press distribution and roadshow logistics. Some replace fully and route press through Business Wire directly.
How do I know this works on my specific SPAC?+
Send us your most recent 10-Q draft. We will return a Loughran-McDonald sentiment breakdown and Gunning Fog readability score within 4 business hours. No payment, no contract, no commitment.
Ten Founding Partner slots. Lock in $150/month for 24 months.
