AI-powered market due diligence for investment decisions.
DiligenceSquared provides an AI-powered platform that automates commercial due diligence and market research for private equity and investment teams. The platform uses AI voice agents to conduct hundreds of expert interviews simultaneously, synthesizes findings with full source traceability, and delivers interactive reports that replace static PowerPoint decks.
The platform covers the entire diligence workflow from research blueprint definition through expert sourcing, multilingual interviews, human quality assurance, and structured insight synthesis. Output is interactive and auditable, with every claim linked to original transcripts.
The global commercial due diligence market exceeds $10 billion annually, with a single large-cap private equity fund spending over $30 million per year on consulting reports. Traditional engagements cost $500K-$1M per project, take 2-4 weeks, and produce opaque static PowerPoint outputs.
DiligenceSquared enters this market as AI-native competition, offering comparable insight at a fraction of the cost and time. The company already serves leading PE firms managing over $2 trillion in combined assets under management.
The founding team combines deep domain expertise from both sides of the due diligence market. Frederik Hansen spent six years as a Principal at Blackstone commissioning $500K+ reports, while Soren Biltoft-Knudsen led 40+ commercial due diligence projects at BCG. Harshil Rastogi brings a decade of AI engineering experience from Google.
The platform's first-mover advantage in applying AI voice agents to the PE diligence workflow, combined with built-in traceability and dramatically lower cost, creates a compelling value proposition for funds that spend over $30M annually on traditional consulting.
