Turning AI into enterprise value for private equity funds and portfolio companies
We embed senior AI talent inside portfolio companies to deliver the AI value creation plan and turn AI into financial outcomes.
Trusted by industry leaders
Supporting portfolio companies across the deal lifecycle.
Pre-Deal
AI Due Diligence
Underwrite AI's impact on the target — what erodes the thesis, and what expands it.
Value Creation Period
Establish the AI Foundations
The systems and data your business runs on set the ceiling on what you can achieve with AI. We help reshape that into a foundation on which you can build and thrive with AI.
Rebuild the operating model around AI
We help define where AI unlocks a non-linear change in your operating model, and redesign how the company should run around it.
Launch new AI products and services
We help define the new business only AI makes possible — a new product, category, or service line — and build it end to end.
We solve problems that generate financial outcomes.

Enterprise value created
Private equity requires a modern partner to turn AI into financial outcomes.
Traditional methods don't work. Business consulting firms give expensive advice and no action. Dev shops lack the senior AI talent, and execute what they're told without questioning whether it has EBITDA impact.
