Accelerate your credit underwriting
Transform complex data rooms into IC-ready investment memos in hours, not days.


Challenges and Solutions
We Know What Keeps You Up at Night
Compressing your IC memo cycles
Your deal team often faces multiple review cycles that consume 5-7 days just to prepare the initial Investment Committee memo. This manual friction slows down your ability to issue term sheets competitively.
How Brightwave Helps:
Brightwave ingests your data room instantly, generating comprehensive first drafts of IC memos in hours to cut days off your process.
Mitigating late-stage diligence risks
Discovering critical findings late in the due diligence process often forces rapid, stressful memo restructuring right before your deadlines. This reactive approach endangers deal certainty and team efficiency.
How Brightwave Helps:
Our platform processes 2000+ pages of DD documents upfront, surfacing critical risks with granular citations so you address them immediately.
Synthesizing complex credit data
Manually synthesizing financial models, legal agreements, and commercial reports across global jurisdictions creates significant operational bottlenecks. This complexity makes it difficult to maintain a unified view of risk.
How Brightwave Helps:
Brightwave performs multi-document synthesis across diverse regulatory environments, linking every insight back to the original source for instant verification.
Scaling your deal screening
To maintain your market position against large competitors, you need to evaluate more credit opportunities without sacrificing underwriting rigor. relying on manual review limits your deal coverage capacity.
How Brightwave Helps:
Analyze 15 deals in the time it typically takes to process one, giving your investment team a 25x speed advantage in screening new opportunities.
