The company

Building the future
of AI-driven investing.

We’re building the AI-native platform for the next generation of investment teams — private equity, investment banking, family offices, and institutional investors alike. Not another summarization tool: an intelligence engine that reads, calculates, and reasons about a deal the way serious investors do.

01Why we exist

The process hasn’t changed in thirty years. The opportunity has.

Before writing a line of code, we spent years inside the work: financial models at two in the morning, four-hundred-page CIMs read for the three numbers that mattered, junior analysts losing weeks to work that should have taken hours.

The manual diligence process — extract, structure, calculate, write — has not fundamentally changed in three decades. Not for lack of will, but because the technology wasn’t ready: extraction was brittle, and language models hallucinated the very numbers that decide a deal.

That changed. Software can now read and reason over deal documents reliably enough to carry the analytical heavy-lift — repeatably, at the scale a growing team requires. Diligenco exists to give every serious investor the analytical infrastructure that was once the privilege of the largest institutions, designed around the real workflow of a deal rather than the demo workflow of a software vendor. We’re building that infrastructure AI-native, from the ground up — the intelligence layer for how private markets will underwrite in the years ahead.

“The best investors don’t just move faster. They see more clearly. Diligenco is the lens.

02Our approach

Rigor first. Speed follows.

Ingest

Diligenco accepts what your deal flow actually produces — PDFs, workbooks, decks, scans. AI-native extraction turns raw files into machine-readable data with no reformatting from your team.

Analyze

Real financial calculations run on the extracted data — EBITDA normalization, bridges, concentration, cohorts. Computed outputs, not prose about numbers, each one reproducible on demand.

Decide

Flagged risks, benchmarked metrics, and a committee-ready memo, formatted the way your IC expects to read. Grounded in arithmetic, not summarization, from the moment it's produced.

03Who we serve

Serious investors, wherever rigor and speed both matter.

01

Private equity

Mid-market and lower-middle-market teams putting AI-native analysis behind every deal — more coverage, without thinning what they show their LPs.

02

Investment banking

Sell-side and buy-side advisory teams keeping pace with a live process — screening reads and valuation support fast enough to move before the mandate does.

03

Corporate development

In-house teams running structured acquisition programs that need to integrate with internal review — and stand up to it.

04

Family offices

Direct-investment teams bringing acquisitions in-house, building the same analytical infrastructure as an institutional shop.

05

Independent sponsors

Deal-by-deal sponsors who must move quickly and credibly, with AI-native diligence clean enough for lending partners.

06

Search funds

Searchers on a first or second acquisition who need institutional-quality tooling without an institutional analyst bench.

07

Institutional investment teams

Institutional teams standardizing how the firm underwrites — one investment-intelligence record every partner, analyst, and committee reads the same way.

04The team

The people behind the platform.

Founders who combined a serious interest in private markets with the conviction that modern software could finally carry the analytical heavy-lift that has slowed investors for decades.

Suvan Sethi

Co-Founder & CEO

Suvan built Diligenco after cutting his teeth in lower-middle-market investment banking, bringing institutional analytical rigor to investors underserved by generic AI tools. He drives product vision and platform development, translating the real mechanics of deal evaluation into software that works the way serious investors actually think.

05What we believe

Values that read like
working principles.

1.0

Analytical rigor

Every number traceable, every claim grounded. Features ship when the underlying analysis is sound — not merely plausible.

2.0

Transparency

We say what the platform can and cannot do, and surface uncertainty where it exists. Confidence scores never substitute for disclosure.

3.0

Professionalism

We build for people making consequential financial decisions. Our outputs, support, and design carry the same seriousness.

4.0

Efficiency

Diligence should take as long as it needs — and not a minute longer. We remove the parts that consume time without producing insight.

5.0

Long-term thinking

Our customers make long-term investments; we build the same way. Trust over novelty, durability over trend.
