We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Your IC memo cycles are consuming critical deal time
Your operational value creation approach demands comprehensive IC memos synthesizing financial, legal, commercial, and operational findings. With 5-7 day review cycles eating into tight deal timelines, your team struggles to deliver the thorough analysis your investment committee expects while competing for quality software assets.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets generates IC-ready investment memos in hours by automatically synthesizing insights across your entire data room. Every finding links back to source documents with sentence-level citations, giving your IC the granular evidence they need without the multi-day turnaround.

Your buy-and-build pipeline overwhelms traditional CIM review
Your platform and add-on acquisition strategy requires evaluating significantly more targets than single-asset buyers. With 50-200 CIMs crossing your desk annually per professional, your team can't apply the same rigorous analysis to every opportunity—forcing difficult triage decisions that may mean missing hidden gems.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets delivers 25x faster CIM analysis, letting your team process 15 deals in the time it previously took for one. Scale your buy-and-build pipeline evaluation without sacrificing the diligence depth that defines your approach to software portfolio transformation.

Your analysts spend weeks on document synthesis instead of insight generation
Your due diligence-intensive model requires combining technical DD, quality of earnings, legal reviews, and commercial assessments into cohesive narratives. Your analysts spend days manually cross-referencing findings across hundreds of documents, leaving little time for the strategic analysis that drives your operational value creation thesis.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets automatically synthesizes insights from financial models, DD reports, and management presentations into unified analysis. Your analysts can redirect time from document processing to identifying the operational transformation opportunities that differentiate your approach.

Your late-stage DD findings require urgent memo restructuring
Your thorough diligence process often surfaces material findings close to IC deadlines, requiring rapid memo restructuring under pressure. When new information emerges from your software target's technical DD or customer references, your team scrambles to integrate findings without sacrificing quality or missing your window.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets enables rapid reanalysis when new information surfaces, regenerating sections with updated findings while maintaining citation integrity. Restructure your IC materials in hours rather than days, ensuring your committee sees the complete picture even when findings arrive at the eleventh hour.
