Challenges and Solutions

We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Shortening your review cycles
Your deal teams often spend 5-7 days manually synthesizing disparate reports into IC memos, creating bottlenecks that delay critical decisions. This manual synthesis consumes valuable time better spent on strategic evaluation.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave allows your team to generate IC-ready investment memos in hours instead of days. Start processing your first data room instantly to reclaim a week of work per deal.

Mitigating late-stage deal risks
Discovering critical diligence findings late in the process often forces rapid, stressful memo restructuring right before IC deadlines. This reactive approach adds unnecessary risk to your intensive due diligence standards.
How Brightwave Helps:

Our AI scans thousands of pages to surface risks immediately, linking every insight to its source. This ensures your team identifies potential red flags early, preventing last-minute scrambles.

Synthesizing complex diligence data
Manually combining financial models, legal reviews, and commercial reports into a cohesive narrative is a heavy lift for your associates. The complexity of cross-referencing these documents increases the potential for oversight.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave unifies your financial, legal, and operational data instantly. We provide sentence-level citations for every claim, ensuring your synthesis is both rapid and rigorously accurate.

Scaling your deal evaluation capacity
While your focus on upper mid-market growth requires deep scrutiny, manual processing limits the number of opportunities you can fully vet. You risk missing viable targets in business services due to bandwidth constraints.
How Brightwave Helps:

By analyzing CIMs 25x faster, your team can evaluate deeper pools of targets without adding headcount. Process 15 deals in the time it used to take for one, expanding your market coverage.
