The Problem
Every fund has the same problem. Enormous amounts of information spread across emails, pitch decks, IC memos, portfolio updates, call notes, PDFs, and internal tools. The data exists, but it is locked in silos and impossible to synthesize quickly when decisions matter.
The issue is not missing data. It is missing leverage.
Private, agentic systems flip the model. Instead of forcing people to organize information upfront, AI ingests everything you already have and turns it into a living intelligence system.
What We Offer
In partnership with The Focus AI, we build private intelligence systems for investment funds. These systems:
- Ingest information from emails, call notes, pitch decks, portfolio updates, and reports
- Connect sources like Granola, Affinity, Airtable, Notion, and internal drives
- Ask complex questions and get precise answers with source-level citations you can audit and share
- Automatically summarize portfolio updates and flag follow-ups, risks, and next steps
- Push insights directly into investment, diligence, and monitoring workflows
Why It Matters
Funds win by making better decisions faster. This layer compresses weeks of synthesis into minutes.
- For venture, it sharpens conviction and pattern recognition
- For private equity, it accelerates diligence and portfolio monitoring
- For funds of funds, it turns fragmented GP updates into a coherent, searchable intelligence system
This is not a chatbot. It is a repeatable system that compounds as your fund grows. No new behavior required. No extra data entry. Just leverage.
