We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

Your buy-and-build pipeline demands faster screening
Your buy-and-build strategy requires evaluating dozens of software targets simultaneously. With 50-200 CIMs crossing your desk annually, your team struggles to synthesize financial, operational, and technical data fast enough to identify the right add-on acquisitions before competitors move.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets processes your entire pipeline 25x faster, letting your team screen 15 software deals in the time it used to take for one. Every insight links back to source documents with sentence-level citations, so your buy-and-build thesis stays grounded in verified data.

Your IC memo cycles are consuming critical deal time
Your control buyout approach demands rigorous IC preparation, but multiple review cycles consume 5-7 days of precious deal timeline. Late-discovered DD findings force rapid memo restructuring right when your team needs to be focused on value creation planning and management engagement.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets generates IC-ready investment memos in hours instead of days directly from your data rooms. Surface material findings early in your process, eliminating last-minute surprises and giving your deal team more time for the operational value creation analysis that differentiates your approach.

Your analysts are drowning in document synthesis
Your due diligence intensive process requires combining financial models, legal reports, commercial analysis, and operational assessments into cohesive narratives. Your upper mid-market software deals generate massive document volumes, leaving analysts buried in synthesis work instead of driving insights.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets automatically synthesizes your financial, legal, commercial, and operational documents into structured analysis with granular citations. Your analysts shift from document processing to strategic thinking—identifying the portfolio company transformation opportunities that power your returns.

Your competitive edge requires deeper analysis, faster
Your focus on operational value creation and exit optimization demands analysis that goes beyond surface-level metrics. But when you're competing against firms like EV, Anacacia, and Rosemont for the same US software targets, speed-to-conviction often determines who wins the deal.
How Brightwave Helps:

Brightwave Private Markets delivers the analytical depth your portfolio operations approach requires at startup speed—starting at $200/month with instant access. Upload your CIMs and DD documents today; receive comprehensive investment analysis with the rigor your IC expects by tomorrow.
