Senior professionals in private equity often struggle to keep their CRMs or deal platforms updated. With constant travel, back-to-back meetings, and a flood of emails, there’s rarely time to log into a system, fill out detailed forms, and input deal data. As a result, valuable information stays trapped in email threads or remains incomplete in fragmented spreadsheets.
That’s why we’ve taken our platform to the next level with our new AI Assistant for Adding Deals - an integrated, virtual LLM (Large Language Model) that automatically captures deal information without manual data entry. Simply forward an email to ListAlpha, and our AI Assistant does the rest.
Time Savings for Busy Professionals
Partner- or principal-level dealmakers can’t afford the administrative burden of data entry. By forwarding emails to our AI Assistant, they can ensure all critical updates and insights get logged—no matter where they are or how little time they have.
Accurate, Up-to-Date Records
Relying on a patchwork of spreadsheets or post-meeting notes often leads to inconsistencies and missed information. Our AI Assistant cuts through the noise and extracts the key details so your deal pipeline is always current.
Better Visibility and Analysis
When all deal data—company name, industry, location, and background—is properly captured, your team gains real-time intelligence. This ensures you can quickly compare opportunities, assess potential synergies, and make informed decisions fast.
Enhanced Collaboration
Deals move fast in private equity. Having a central platform with auto-enriched notes allows your team to collaborate more effectively. Whether associates need the latest numbers or analysts are scoping a new angle, the information is right at their fingertips.
1. Email Forwarding Integration
No more copying and pasting from emails to spreadsheets. Just forward relevant emails to ListAlpha, and the AI Assistant automatically populates your deal or notes sections with the extracted content.
2. Intelligent Data Extraction
Built on advanced natural language processing, the LLM identifies core deal details (target business name, relevant financials, situational dynamic references) and links them to the correct record in your platform.
3. Auto-Enrichment Technology
Leveraging ListAlpha’s enrichment capabilities, the AI Assistant cross-references the target company against external datasets. It then adds relevant background information—such as industry classification, HQ location, and known competitors—directly to the deal record.
4. Notes on the Fly
Whether it’s a commentary on recent EBITDA performance or expected enterprise value, the AI Assistant logs the key insights in the deal comments section—no extra clicks required. That means less friction and fewer half-finished logs.
5. Seamless Platform Integration
As with all new releases, this feature deepens ListAlpha’s integration with your existing workflow. You still have access to folders, advanced calculations, and OneNote sync—now enriched by AI-powered data capture.
1. Forward Your Email
Anytime you receive a promising new opportunity or relevant update, forward the email to your designated ListAlpha address.
2. AI Assistant Reads & Extracts
Our LLM processes the email body, extracting the target company name, industry details, and any other key information present.
3. Enrichment & Classification
ListAlpha automatically cross-checks the extracted information with our enrichment engine, appending relevant market data, location info, and competitor insights.
4. Deal or Note Created
A new record—complete with notes—appears in your ListAlpha dashboard, ready for immediate follow-up, review, or collaboration.
Train Your Team
Encourage all senior dealmakers and associates to forward relevant emails to the AI Assistant. The more consistently your team uses it, the cleaner your pipeline becomes.
Review & Validate
While our AI is highly accurate, give newly created records a quick glance to ensure everything is captured correctly—especially when dealing with highly nuanced deals or unique data points.
Combine with Other Features
Pair the AI Assistant with ListAlpha’s advanced formulas, folder aggregation, and OneNote integration for a truly seamless experience. All your notes, calculations, and updates live together in one centralized system.
