Q&A for Allocators
How do you handle meeting recordings and consent?
We only record with explicit consent. Recordings are used to map representations to our 7-pillar framework. Notes and grades are traceable to artifacts, and the contradictions ledger flags mismatches between documents and representations.
What asset classes/managers do you cover?
Institutional allocators evaluating hedge funds and private equity managers—initial diligence, re-reviews, and event-driven checks are all supported.
What makes the grades "evidence-backed" and explainable?
Every score links to specific documents and meeting notes; pillar → sub-risk → driver is fully traceable. The contradictions ledger highlights where claims don't match source evidence.
How do you handle security and data isolation?
We maintain client data isolation with versioned findings and change logs. Our approach is auditable and designed to meet internal standards for sensitive diligence materials.
Typical turnaround time?
For standard scopes: meeting prep notes before the call; a heatmap, contradictions ledger, and remediation recommendations shortly after. Larger scopes (portfolio benchmarking) vary with corpus size.
How It Works
From documents and a recorded meeting (with consent) to an allocator-ready risk assessment.
Ingest
DDQ, policies, financials, marketing materials, SEC filings
Interview
Recorded session with consent; representations mapped to framework

Why It's Different
Evidence-Backed
Every grade links to specific artifacts and meeting notes. Know exactly why each score was assigned, with confidence levels and coverage ratios.
Explainable
Pillar → sub-risk → driver, all traceable to source documents. Contradictions ledger flags where representations don't match evidence.
Auditable
Versioned findings with change logs. Immutable timestamps. Client data isolation. Security standards that meet your own internal requirements.
