Challenges and Solutions

We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Your DD intensity is slowing deal velocity
Your commitment to rigorous due diligence is a competitive advantage—until it becomes a bottleneck. Synthesizing financial, legal, commercial, and operational reports across multiple add-on targets creates information overload that delays IC preparation by days.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets processes your entire data room in minutes, automatically synthesizing insights across all document types. Your team maintains the DD rigor that drives your value creation while cutting memo preparation from days to hours.

Your consumer sector CIM volume overwhelms your team
Evaluating 50-200 consumer-focused CIMs annually means your professionals spend more time reading than analyzing. With competitors like Riverside and GTCR moving fast, slow initial screening puts your best platform opportunities at risk.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets delivers 25x faster CIM analysis, letting your team process 15 consumer deals in the time it used to take for one. Identify the right platform and add-on targets faster while your competitors are still reading executive summaries.

Your IC memo cycles drain senior bandwidth
Multiple review cycles consuming 5-7 days for each IC memo pulls your senior partners away from portfolio transformation work. Late-discovered findings requiring rapid restructuring close to deadlines compounds the pressure on your deal team.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets generates IC-ready investment memos with sentence-level citations linking every insight to source documents. Your senior team reviews polished drafts instead of rough outlines, freeing bandwidth for the operational value creation that defines your firm.

Your portfolio operations insights get lost in the shuffle
Your exit optimization strategy depends on identifying operational improvement opportunities during initial DD. But when information synthesis becomes overwhelming, the transformational insights that drive your portfolio company success can be buried in the noise.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets surfaces critical operational findings with granular citations, ensuring your team captures every value creation opportunity from day one. Start building your transformation thesis during DD, not after close.
