- Anacapa Partners' own account anacapapartners.com
- Peterson Partners' own account petersonpartners.com

These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. The index host says he became chief executive when it invested in 2014 and records its own 2018 exit. A second backer carries the company against 2014 and names nobody, and a third's grid states the purchase beside a logo and names nobody. A fourth lists the company and prints his own testimonial calling the firm his lead investor, which names the firm and not a purchase. Nothing names him as the buyer.
