LATO

Investors need to deeply understand companies and their markets before putting capital behind them, but this research today takes too much time and is too expensive. Traditional commercial diligence relies on manually sourcing and interviewing domain experts and customers, then combining those insights with large volumes of public and proprietary documents. This process is slow, often taking weeks, which slows deal evaluation and portfolio support work.

LATO uses agents to interview hundreds of verified domain experts and customers in any language, producing a recording, transcript, and analysis of key themes for each conversation. It automatically combines these interviews with thousands of documents from public sources and proprietary data into a single study, compressing work that normally takes weeks into hours. The resulting study becomes a live simulation of the market that lets investors run scenarios and predict where a market is headed. LATO is positioned for use cases including commercial due diligence, expert and customer interviews, market sizing, competitive mapping, pricing studies, deal sourcing, inbound screening, and portfolio value creation. It integrates with tools like Outlook, SharePoint, Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, Affinity, Harmonic, Granola, Teams, Attio, and Excel.
