Dealmakers And Tech Innovators: Redefining Diligence
Conor and Rohan bring a combined 14 years of experience in the industry at Vista Equity Partners (Private Equity), Goldman Sachs, and Natixis, during which they conducted due diligence and represented companies in transactions totaling over $20B. Lalit, co-founder and CTO, spent 7 years leading teams as an early engineer for three different AI companies (AI Ads, AI Robotics, AI Pharmaceuticals), two of which had private equity exits.
Current AI tools search and summarize data but fall short of generating insights that create true alpha. So, they decided to tackle the toughest challenges in due diligence, from rigorous data cleaning and manipulation to generating complex analyses that uncover hidden insights. Their mantra: "Stop Summarizing, Start Analyzing!"
The Due-Diligence Dilemma
Private equity funds are struggling to find and win the right deals because due diligence is time-consuming and labor-intensive, leading to:
- Only assessing ~20% of deals due to limited resources
- Wasting time on the wrong deals and missing out on the right deals
- Missing critical details leads to losing millions or sometimes billions
- Failing to discover the hidden insights that help win deals and generate alpha
The Only Platform Built Around the Investor's Thought Process
- Instantly generate thousands of complex analyses from raw data
- Extract critical insights from each analysis (trends, anomalies, narratives, etc.)
For Example: “Each successive cohort's initial average revenue per customer decreases (2008: $61.7K, 2009: $29.1K, 2010: $25.2K, 2011: $18.1K), indicating a concerning downward trend in the average value of new customers.”
- Create and personalize analyses based on the fund and industry
Gain unparalleled visibility into your entire deal history and unlock the shared intelligence within.
Proof Is In The Pudding
“We recently did a deal and initially analyzed cohorts on a yearly basis, and while it looked good overall, we later found an issue in Q2 that only came up after speaking with the management team. By then, the team had invested so much time that it didn’t make sense to go back and redo everything quarterly. If I could have just clicked a button to view quarterly cohort insights upfront, it would have saved us considerable effort. I wish I’d had that button."- Managing Partner, MM HealthCare Fund
