Frederik Jakobsen
Co-Founder & CEO
Leads positioning and system architecture: the targeting logic and the engine that turns an investment thesis into founder conversations, built to compound over time rather than run as one-off campaigns.
About
Operators who happen to run very good software.
DealSource Systems is the AI-native origination layer for private equity firms, M&A advisors, and boutique investment banks. We map a market, detect the owners ready to move, and put you in direct founder conversations before a deal reaches a broker or an auction. The machine scales the work. People with deal experience own every founder-facing moment.
How we think about it
Two beliefs the rest of the market gets wrong
Everyone claims AI now. Most are pointing an autonomous tool at a list and hoping. Our position is narrower and, we think, more honest: software is extraordinary at scale, and useless without judgment standing behind it.
-
Belief 01
AI without an experienced human is noise
An unsupervised AI SDR writes plausible outreach that founders can smell, and it damages a firm's name in a referral-driven market. Our AI does the heavy lifting: mapping, scoring, monitoring, drafting. Operators with deal experience review every message before it reaches an owner and handle the replies. AI for scale, people for judgment.

Belief 02
The perfect-fit, ten-outreaches-a-week thesis does not work
You cannot find readiness online. Whether an owner is actually ready to sell, who really decides, what is happening inside the business, much of it sits in no database. So you need genuine volume to cover a market and the relationship-building that means when an owner does become ready, you are already the name they know. Thin precision-only outreach misses the deals that were never visible to begin with.
AI does the work that scales. Operators do the work that matters. Most vendors only have one of those, and it shows.
The team
The people who would run your mandate
DealSource Systems is run by operators, not account managers. The same people who design the targeting logic are the ones reviewing the outreach and joining the calls. When you engage us, you are not handed to a sales team and forgotten.
Martin Rasmussen
Co-Founder, Origination
Runs commercial and the first conversations. He is the person your thesis goes to when you book a call, and the point of contact from that call through to live origination. Nothing is routed through a sales team.
Val Oliinyk
GTM & Customer Success Lead
Owns how engagements go to market and how mandates are run day to day, from onboarding through the weekly cadence of qualified founder conversations a firm should expect.
Salma Ouabihi
Customer Success Manager
Leads onboarding and campaign execution across mandates: implementation precision, performance monitoring, and the structured iteration that keeps origination improving month over month.
Rejwan Nirob
AI, Tech & Contact Intelligence
Builds the data and enrichment pipelines: 16+ sources with custom web scraping, the 0 to 100 thesis-fit scoring, and the segmentation that turns an investment thesis into an accurate target universe.
This is the same operating team behind Danish Lead Co, the group that has run origination for 110+ B2B companies. The names above are the names on the calls and the names doing the work: the people who build the market maps, review every founder-facing message, and keep outreach deliverable at scale.
The parent group
Built and operated by Danish Lead Co
DealSource Systems is the deal-origination application of infrastructure that Danish Lead Co has built and run across every kind of B2B market. Founded by Frederik Jakobsen and headquartered in Dubai, the group has pointed the same machinery at manufacturing, SaaS, healthcare, and agencies. That is why it works the moment it is aimed at a deal thesis: the engine is proven, only the targeting changes.
