We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Your IC memo cycles are consuming critical deal time
Your team spends 5-7 days in review cycles preparing IC memos, with last-minute DD findings forcing rapid restructuring close to deadlines. This pressure intensifies when you're evaluating multiple platform and add-on targets simultaneously across your buy-and-build strategy.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets generates IC-ready investment memos in hours from 2000+ page data rooms. Every insight includes sentence-level citations linking back to source materials, so your team can validate findings instantly and restructure confidently when new information surfaces.

Your CIM volume exceeds team capacity
Your deal professionals are reviewing 50-200 CIMs annually while maintaining the rigorous analysis standards your operational value creation approach demands. This volume creates bottlenecks that can delay your response to attractive platform opportunities.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets delivers 25x faster CIM analysis, allowing your team to process 15 deals in the time it previously took for one. Start processing your first data room in under 30 seconds and scale your deal evaluation without scaling headcount.

Your DD synthesis spans too many workstreams
Your due diligence intensive approach requires synthesizing financial, legal, commercial, and operational reports into cohesive narratives. Combining insights across these disparate sources manually creates information gaps and extends your timeline to IC.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets automatically synthesizes your complete data room—financial models, legal documents, commercial DD reports—into comprehensive investment analysis. Your team gets unified insights with granular citations, eliminating manual cross-referencing across workstreams.

Your late-stage findings disrupt deal momentum
Your thorough DD process sometimes surfaces critical findings late in evaluation, requiring rapid memo restructuring before IC deadlines. These discoveries can derail your exit optimization planning and portfolio transformation thesis when discovered too close to decision points.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets enables rapid reprocessing of updated materials, generating revised deliverables in hours. Your team can confidently surface and address findings earlier in your process, protecting deal momentum and strengthening your investment thesis before IC.
