We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Your IC memo cycles are consuming critical deal time
Your team spends 5-7 days across multiple review cycles preparing each IC memo. When you're evaluating 50-200 CIMs annually per professional while executing a buy-and-build strategy, those lost days compound into missed platform and add-on opportunities.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets generates IC-ready investment memos in hours from your complete data rooms. Your team reclaims days per deal—time you can redirect toward identifying the next transformational add-on or evaluating additional platform targets.

Your late-stage DD findings derail memo timelines
Your due diligence intensive approach means surfacing critical findings across financial, legal, commercial, and operational workstreams. When material issues emerge close to IC deadlines, your team scrambles to restructure memos under pressure, risking quality and credibility.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets synthesizes your entire DD document set with sentence-level citations linking every insight to source materials. When findings shift, your team instantly traces implications and restructures with confidence—turning crisis into controlled adaptation.

Your deal volume outpaces your analyst capacity
Your upper mid-market control buyout thesis demands thorough evaluation of every opportunity. But with diversified sector coverage across US markets, your analysts are stretched thin processing CIMs while you're competing against Gateway, Conrad, and Campbell Newman for the same deals.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets delivers 25x faster CIM analysis—your team processes 15 deals in the time competitors handle one. Starting at $200/month versus $833+ for enterprise alternatives, you scale your evaluation capacity without scaling headcount.

Your portfolio transformation insights stay siloed
Your operational value creation approach depends on synthesizing lessons from portfolio company transformations into new deal evaluations. But critical operational patterns and exit optimization learnings remain buried across hundreds of documents, limiting your pattern recognition advantage.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets processes your historical deal documentation alongside new opportunities, surfacing relevant operational playbooks and transformation precedents. Your institutional knowledge becomes instantly accessible—strengthening every new investment thesis with your proven value creation edge.
