Private Equity

AI an operating partner can actually deploy

Due diligence that takes days, not weeks. Portfolio companies that hit their 100-day AI plan instead of writing another one. AiRE rolled out across the portfolio you already own, and Labs built for the gaps nothing off the shelf fills.

Free diagnostic, three minutes. No follow-up unless you ask.

Built around the operating partner's problem

Not a generic AI pitch. The four places funds and portfolio companies actually ask us to start.

Due-diligence automation

AI-assisted reads of data rooms, PPMs and management packs. Extract the numbers that matter and flag the risks worth asking about, before you sign rather than after.

Portfolio value creation

One playbook run consistently across every portfolio company, rather than reinvented deal by deal. AiRE deploys onto whatever stack the company already has, not a stack you have to buy first.

100-day plans that ship

A working AI rollout inside the first 100 days, not a slide deck promising one. Labs builds what is missing; AiRE deploys what already exists across the operating model.

AiRE for portfolio companies

The same diagnostic and rollout engine applied across the portfolio, so the value creation plan means the same thing in every board pack, whichever company is presenting it.
