Use cases

Write the bear case for an investment memo

Memos argue for the deal, so risks can get less attention than they need.

You ask

Read our draft memo and the data room for this Series B logistics software company. Write the strongest case against investing, with evidence for each point, and rate each risk.

What it does

  1. Reads the draft memo, financials and customer data you upload.
  2. Searches news, competitor pages and filings for evidence against each claim in the memo.
  3. Lists risks in a sheet with the evidence and a source for each.
  4. Checks each cited fact against its source before the committee meeting.
