For investorsBy investor · Private equity and growth funds

Create value across the portfolio, and prove it to your LPs.

Holds are longer and LPs want distributions they can see. We give the fund one live, auditable view of how each company runs, from diligence to exit.

The problemWhat goes wrong today

Returns now come from operations, and LPs want the evidence.

Each portfolio company reports in its own way, weeks late. What works in one company stays there, and the exit data room is built in a rush at the end of the hold.

LPs increasingly ask for proof of value creation, not a narrative.

Illustrative caseA worked example, with its arithmetic

$3B buyout fund with 12 portfolio companies

Illustrative case: a worked example, not a client result. The arithmetic is shown below it.

+$30MEBITDA a year across five companies≈ $300M more equity value at 10×

The situation

The monthly portfolio KPI pack took three weeks to assemble, no two companies reported alike, and the exit data room was built only at exit.

What AIx2 did

  1. Connected five portfolio companies to one standard, live view.
  2. Found the margin levers in each company’s own data and rolled what worked from one company out to the next.
  3. Kept the exit data room current from the same data, every month.
