Challenges and Solutions

We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Streamlining your IC memo production
Your team currently loses 5-7 days per deal cycle manually synthesizing financial, legal, and commercial reports into memos. This lag time creates friction when you need to move quickly on high-conviction targets.
How Brightwave Helps:

Generate IC-ready investment memos in hours from 2000+ page data rooms using your specific templates. You can restructure narratives instantly rather than spending days on manual revisions.

Scaling your buy-and-build evaluation
Executing a successful buy-and-build strategy requires reviewing hundreds of CIMs annually, often leading to analyst burnout or missed add-on opportunities. Your current workflow limits the volume of deals you can screen effectively.
How Brightwave Helps:

Process 15 deals in the time it used to take for one, allowing you to screen more add-on targets without adding headcount. You gain instant analysis to determine platform fit before deep resource allocation.

Eliminating late-stage diligence surprises
Discovering critical findings just before IC deadlines forces your team into rapid, high-pressure memo restructuring. These late-stage adjustments risk overlooking key operational details in the rush to finalize.
How Brightwave Helps:

Ingest and analyze full data rooms immediately to surface critical risks and operational insights on day one. You can address potential red flags early in the process rather than at the eleventh hour.

Validating your investment thesis data
Manually cross-referencing insights against thousands of pages of diligence documents is prone to human error and inefficiency. Ensuring every data point in your thesis is backed by source material is a time-consuming manual burden.
How Brightwave Helps:

Every generated insight includes sentence-level citations linking directly back to the original source documents in the data room. You can audit and verify your investment thesis instantly with absolute confidence.
