Your competitive advantage

  • • Deal patterns and red flags surface automatically across your entire portfolio
  • • Sector expertise that deepens with every transaction you touch
  • • Risk frameworks that get smarter, not just bigger
  • • New hires operate with senior-level institutional knowledge from day one
  • • Models and analyses become reusable IP, not throwaway work

What you unlock

Edit models in Excel and have every change understood by AI and reflected across Python and SQL. The add‑in enables human↔AI collaboration and programmatic control—without requiring an SDK.

Agentic web research

Multi‑step, lead‑following research for companies and people. It searches, evaluates, and compiles results into clean lists and summaries—fast.

Native database connectivity
