We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Your IC memo cycles are consuming valuable deal time
Your team spends 5-7 days on multiple review cycles for each IC memo, synthesizing financial, legal, commercial, and operational reports across complex control buyout transactions. Late-discovered DD findings force rapid restructuring right before critical deadlines.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets processes your entire data room and generates comprehensive IC memos in hours. Every insight links back to source documents with sentence-level citations, so your review cycles collapse from days to hours with full audit trails.

Your buy-and-build pipeline exceeds evaluation capacity
Your professionals review 50-200 CIMs annually while executing your buy-and-build strategy across diversified sectors. The volume of platform and add-on opportunities creates constant pressure to evaluate more deals without sacrificing your due diligence standards.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets lets your team process 15 CIMs in the time it previously took for one. Upload your documents and receive structured investment analysis instantly, freeing your professionals to focus on operational value creation rather than document synthesis.

Your analyst bandwidth limits portfolio transformation work
Your upper mid-market deals require intensive operational due diligence, but your analysts spend excessive time on document processing instead of portfolio company transformation initiatives. This creates bottlenecks that impact both deal velocity and exit optimization planning.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets automates your document processing at just $200/month—a fraction of enterprise tool costs. Your analysts reclaim days per deal to focus on the operational value creation and portfolio operations that differentiate your approach.

Your cross-sector analysis lacks consistent depth
Your diversified investment focus means evaluating opportunities across multiple industries with varying data complexity. Maintaining consistent analytical rigor across sectors while managing US-focused deal flow strains your quality assurance processes.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets delivers standardized, comprehensive analysis regardless of sector, with granular citations linking every insight to source materials. Your due diligence maintains consistent depth across your diversified portfolio, supporting confident IC decisions.
