- What they do
- Answer questions, summarise and draft across almost any subject, from whatever you paste or upload.
- What Hebrides does
- Holds the whole deal in one workspace, reads every document in the data room against the others, cites each figure to its passage, and adds valuation, forecasting and the memo in your template.
- Which fits
- Use both. An assistant is good for a quick question; the deal itself belongs somewhere structured, permissioned and logged.
Compare
How Hebrides compares, and when something else fits better.
Most teams we speak to already use two or three of these, on the investing side and the raising side. Here is what each kind of tool is for, where Hebrides differs, and where it does not need to.
For investors
Hebrides Lewis against the tools investment teams already use.
02
AI research and market intelligence
Hebbia, AlphaSense
- What they do
- Search and synthesise across large libraries: filings, broker research, expert call transcripts and a firm’s own documents.
- What Hebrides does
- Works deal by deal on the documents a company has given you, flags where they contradict each other, and carries the analysis through to a valuation, a forecast and the IC memo.
- Which fits
- A research library suits teams whose edge is breadth of public information. Hebrides suits teams whose work is reading one company’s data room closely.
- What they do
- Run multi-step deal workflows for PE, banking and credit teams: data room analysis, underwriting, memos and monitoring.
- What Hebrides does
- Built for family offices, VCs and PE teams who diligence and value companies: a citation on every fact, comparables from Dealroom, and Mayar, a forecasting model with a published backtest.
- Which fits
- Credit underwriting with an Excel audit trail points to F2. A bank or large platform wanting one agent across M&A and many data sources points to BlueFlame. Diligence through valuation in one cited workspace points to Hebrides.
04
Private market data
PitchBook, S&P Capital IQ, Dealroom
- What they do
- Databases of companies, rounds, transactions and fund performance.
- What Hebrides does
- Reads your own deal documents. Dealroom private transaction data is built into Comparables and the Valuation Suite, with no separate subscription needed.
- Which fits
- Complementary. A data platform tells you about the market; Hebrides tells you about the company in front of you.
- What they do
- Find, profile and track private companies that match a thesis. Grata now describes itself as an agentic M&A workspace.
- What Hebrides does
- Hebrides Tiree, an add-on to Lewis, reads public filings and surfaces the UK companies that match your mandate, with the signal behind each one. When one fits, you diligence it in Lewis.
- Which fits
- If sourcing is your only gap, a sourcing tool may be enough. If you also want the diligence that follows, Tiree and Lewis keep it in one place.
06
Portfolio valuation and reporting
73 Strings
- What they do
- Valuation and data software for alternative asset managers, built around periodic portfolio valuation.
- What Hebrides does
- Monitors each holding from its own board packs and updates, cited to source, and writes the portfolio update from the same deal record used in diligence.
- Which fits
- Fund-level valuation at scale points to a valuation platform. Following each company closely from diligence onwards points to Hebrides.
For companies raising and their advisers
Hebrides Skye against the usual way a raise is run. Skye is open to a founding cohort and launches before the end of 2026.
- What they do
- Store and share deal documents with permissions and an audit trail. Datasite and Intralinks now add AI inside the room, such as question-answering and redaction; Firmex keeps it simple.
- What Hebrides does
- Hebrides Skye builds the room and the materials from the data the company already has, and investors work inside it through Hebrides Lewis. The company decides what each investor sees.
- Which fits
- A large sell-side M&A process with many bidders may need a traditional data room. A company running its own raise, or an adviser who wants the analysis and the room together, fits Skye.
- What they do
- Send a deck or a set of documents by link and track how each page is read. Both now offer data rooms too, and Papermark adds an AI copilot.
- What Hebrides does
- Skye shares the materials as a tracked story, then opens the full room to the investors you approve, with every figure traceable to its source and the Q&A in one thread.
- Which fits
- For a teaser sent to a handful of investors, a sharing link is enough. Once investors start diligence, the room, the numbers and the questions belong in one place.
09
Running the raise yourself, or with an adviser
Spreadsheets, email and a placement agent
Who runs the raise- What they do
- Most raises run on a spreadsheet of investors, a shared drive and an inbox, with an adviser for larger rounds.
- What Hebrides does
- Skye keeps the investor list, the room, the materials and the questions in one workspace, with an independent valuation and a Mayar forecast on your own numbers. Allermuir Capital can run the raise with you.
- Which fits
- If an adviser already runs your process, Skye gives them the workspace. If you are running it yourself, Skye is the structure, with our team alongside you if you want it.
