Our read

The Hub verdict

Trade tools do not always sparkle on television, but a genuinely useful one can still win a Dragon. Teirnan McCorkell pitched Pipe Easy, a pipe-fitting tool, asking 41,000 pounds for 30%, an oddly precise cheque that values the business at roughly 136,700 pounds. Sara Davies backed it on the numbers as pitched. The specific ask suggests McCorkell had costed a particular next step rather than plucking a round figure from the air, which tends to play well in the Den. Thirty percent is a real share, but for a founder needing manufacturing and distribution help, a hands-on Dragon can be worth it. What the tool did in the trade after 2019 is unverified here and stays that way until we can check a live listing.

Worth knowing: The deal above is public record from the episode. We never treat an on-air handshake as proof a product is still for sale today.
