Challenges and Solutions

We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Data room synthesis bottlenecks
Your intense focus on operational due diligence requires synthesizing thousands of pages. Manually processing 50-200 CIMs annually creates a bottleneck that slows your buy-and-build strategy.
How Brightwave Helps:

Upload full data rooms and let Brightwave process 2000+ pages instantly. Synthesize financial, legal, and operational reports into coherent analysis 25x faster than your current workflow.

Protracted IC memo cycles
Spending 5-7 days preparing investment memos consumes valuable time that should be spent on deal structuring. The complexity of combining commercial and operational data often leads to review fatigue.
How Brightwave Helps:

Generate IC-ready investment memos in hours. Brightwave automatically structures your data into professional deliverables, allowing you to focus on the strategic narrative rather than document formatting.

Late-stage diligence risks
Discovering critical findings just before an IC deadline forces rapid, stressful memo restructuring. These late surprises threaten your ability to close quality lower middle market assets efficiently.
How Brightwave Helps:

Surface risks immediately with sentence-level citations linking every insight back to source materials. Identify potential pitfalls days earlier, giving you time to address issues without the fire drill.

Missed high-quality assets
High valuations and a crowded market mean you cannot afford to move slowly on proprietary deal flow. Manual screening limits the number of add-on opportunities you can evaluate thoroughly.
How Brightwave Helps:

Scale your screening capacity by processing 15 deals in the time it used to take for one. Evaluate more targets in fragmented sectors to find the best operational turnaround opportunities first.
