Use cases

Do desk research for due diligence

Diligence runs a few weeks, and much of the first goes to desk research.

You ask

We start commercial due diligence on a veterinary clinic chain on Monday. Build a fact base on US pet care spending, clinic count trends, the five largest competitors and recent deals, and list what the management plan assumes about each.

What it does

  1. Reads the management plan and other files from the data room.
  2. Searches public data, filings and news for evidence on each market claim.
  3. Lays out each plan assumption next to the outside evidence in a sheet.
  4. Builds a draft readout deck with a sources slide.

You get

A fact base sheet and draft readout deck, with a source on each number.
