IC-ready deal memos from every expert call — Alfven.AI
Alfven is built for private equity and venture capital due diligence teams. It captures every expert and management call, anchors every claim to its source moment, flags contradictions across workstreams, and drafts IC-ready memos in under 5 minutes — with a defensible evidence ledger underneath. Your judgement is the strategy. Alfven handles everything that isn't.
How It Works
Record or connect your meeting. Alfven transcribes live, analyses the discussion, and generates reports using custom templates. An AI quality gate scores each report and retries if it falls short. Agentic enforcement engines detect decision decay, verify commitments, and resolve contradictions. Reports are delivered instantly via email, Slack, webhook, HubSpot, Notion, or Gamma — and can be exported as PPTX, PDF, or DOCX.
Intelligence Hub — 6-Tab Execution Surface
The Intelligence Hub is the unified command layer across all hierarchy levels — organization, workspace, session, and discussion:
- Command Center — Priority-ranked execution feed merging AI-pushed signals and manual backlogs with filters for Critical, Open Actions, and Overdue items. Supports notification deep-linking to scroll directly to specific signals.
- Trends — Cross-meeting trend detection and strategic drift monitoring
- Knowledge — Wiki-style knowledge base and entity extraction from transcripts and documents
- Sources — Contextual document management with AI-powered OCR and extraction via Gemini
- People — Stakeholder tracking and speaker analytics across discussions
- Graph — Interactive knowledge graph visualising entities, relationships, and causal chains
AI Chat with Pluggable Skills
Every workspace includes an AI chat assistant with a tool-calling agent framework. Skills are pluggable and manageable per workspace via the Skill Marketplace:
- Core Skills: Fact Base search, Action Item queries, Push to Linear, Export Report (PPTX/PDF/DOCX)
- Connector Skills: Query Linear issues, search Slack messages, browse Google Drive files — all from chat
- Permission Layer: High-risk actions (push, create, delete) require user confirmation before execution
- Skill Marketplace: Enable or disable skills per workspace from workspace settings
Evidence-Linked Discussion Items
Every action item, decision, and risk is anchored to a verbatim transcript quote, speaker, and timestamp. The status lifecycle (extracted → confirmed → in_progress → done → verified) tracks items from AI detection to verified completion. Cross-discussion threading links items across sessions within a workspace using thread IDs, with carry-forward logic for unresolved tasks and a health scoring system that monitors stall signals.

Agentic Intelligence Layers
Alfven goes beyond transcription with four autonomous intelligence layers:
- Anticipation — Pre-briefs, stakeholder dossiers, and preparation agents run 24–72 hours before meetings
- Enforcement — Overdue item nudger, decision decay detector, contradiction resolver, follow-through verifier
- Synthesis — Strategic drift monitor, cross-engagement pattern analysis, institutional learning
- Deployment — Context whisperer (real-time), auto-agenda generation, post-meeting auto-report
Built for Investment Committees, not Note-Taking
Most AI notetakers stop at a transcript and a generic summary. Alfven is built around the deal and the thesis: every claim is anchored to its source moment in the call, every contradiction across workstreams is surfaced before IC, and every memo is drafted with a full evidence ledger you can defend in front of a partner. Designed for PE/VC due diligence teams, M&A advisors, and the deal partners who own the memo.
Beyond Transcription — What Happens After the Summary?
Otter and Fireflies record and transcribe. Microsoft Copilot adds summaries within M365. Alfven goes further: it analyses, quality-gates, enforces follow-through, and delivers structured reports without waiting for a human to review, format, or send. The outcome gap — what happens between the summary and the action — is where Alfven operates.

Alfven for Due Diligence Deal Teams
Every expert call contains alpha. Most of it evaporates before the memo. Alfven captures live expert calls, links findings to source evidence, detects contradictions across management meetings, and auto-generates IC-ready deal memos. Cover 3x more expert calls per deal without adding headcount. Contradiction detection flags when management said one thing in Call 3 and another in Call 7 — with timestamped evidence. Cross-workstream synthesis unifies commercial, financial, legal, and operational DD into a single evidence-linked view. Export deal memos, CDD summaries, and IC briefs as PPTX, PDF, or DOCX with source citations. Learn more about Alfven for Due Diligence →
