Accelerate your credit underwriting
Transform complex data rooms into IC-ready memos in hours instead of days.

Challenges and Solutions
We Know What Keeps You Up at Night
Reducing your memo cycle time
Your investment committee preparation often drags on with multiple review cycles consuming days of valuable deal team time.
How Brightwave Helps:
Brightwave enables your analysts to produce first drafts in hours, slashing review times and accelerating your internal approval process.
Identifying risks before deadlines
Late-stage findings in DD documents can derail your process, requiring stressful memo restructuring right before the IC meeting.
How Brightwave Helps:
Your team gets instant, cited insights across all uploaded files, ensuring critical data points are flagged well before the deadline.
Streamlining complex diligence synthesis
Manually cross-referencing financial, legal, and operational reports creates synthesis bottlenecks that slow down your decision-making.
How Brightwave Helps:
Our platform automatically synthesizes multi-document intelligence, linking every insight to the source to validate your underwriting thesis.
Expanding your deal coverage
Thoroughly evaluating new credit opportunities is often limited by the manual bandwidth available to process incoming CIMs.
How Brightwave Helps:
Your firm can process 15x more opportunities by using AI to parse CIMs instantly, allowing you to bid on the best deals faster.
