Challenges and Solutions

We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Shortening your IC memo cycle
Your teams often face multiple review cycles taking 5-7 days to prepare IC memos, consuming valuable time on manual document synthesis rather than strategic analysis. This delay impacts your ability to move decisively on competitive deals.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets drafts comprehensive investment memos in hours. You receive structured narratives based on your uploaded data, cutting preparation time significantly.

Scaling your CIM analysis capacity
With professionals reviewing 50-200 CIMs annually, your team struggles to balance thoroughness with volume, risking missed opportunities in a crowded upper-mid market. Manually processing this volume is a bottleneck to your buy-and-build strategy.
How Brightwave Helps:

Process 15 deals in the time it used to take for one. Our AI analyzes 2000+ pages of due diligence materials instantly, allowing you to screen more targets with greater precision.

Validating your diligence data
Synthesizing disparate financial, legal, and commercial reports into a cohesive thesis is complex and prone to synthesis errors. You need absolute confidence that the data backing your operational value creation strategy is accurate.
How Brightwave Helps:

We provide sentence-level citations linking every AI-generated insight directly back to the source document. This ensures your due diligence is audit-ready and fact-checked instantly.

Preventing late-stage deal risks
Late-discovered findings in the data room often require rapid memo restructuring close to IC deadlines, adding unnecessary stress and risk to your execution. Relying on manual review leaves you vulnerable to overlooking critical details until it is too late.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets surfaces critical findings immediately upon upload. You identify red flags and operational risks in minutes, securing your negotiation position well before the deadline.
