VanTage - Due diligence, on a timeline

Private equity associates spend roughly 40 hours per target on preliminary due diligence—a full week lost to browser tabs, public filings, news archives, and litigation records, manually stitched into something an investment committee will trust. Most of that week isn't analysis; it's gathering. Vantage does it in 40 seconds. Point it at a company and it pulls from 12 distinct web sources at once, assembling them into a live knowledge graph: a connected map of the target's people, financials, legal exposure, customers, suppliers, and reputational signals. Relationships that normally take days to cross-reference appear instantly—the board member sitting on a competitor's audit committee, the lawsuit filed quietly three states away, the executive churn that began before the numbers softened. Red flags don't wait to be found. Vantage automatically surfaces litigation spikes, leadership departures, restatements, and regulatory actions, ranked and explained. A 90-day time slider lets you drag through recent history and watch the target's profile change—because knowing when something shifted is often more revealing than knowing that it did. Every claim is cited back to its source, so partners can audit it and committees can rely on it. Every memo lands IC-ready. This defensibility is powered by Bright Data, whose reliable, large-scale, structured web access makes a trustworthy knowledge graph possible where brittle scrapers and stale databases fail. We target middle-market PE associates—the highest willingness-to-pay segment in B2B software, where seats command $500–$2,000 per month. Their time is billed against nine-figure decisions, and a single avoided bad deal or faster close justifies the spend many times over. Vantage turns the most tedious week in the deal process into a 40-second starting point.
