A Q&A Module that can handle anything
Our extensive experience in the Due Diligence process has enabled us to develop a VDR platform with features that provide maximum control and flexibility to cater for all types of M&A transactions. In today’s fast-paced M&A environment, efficient communication and collaboration are essential for deal success. One key tool within our platform that stands head […]
The Power of AI-assisted VDR structuring
Before any Due Diligence can happen, the data room needs to be set up and structured. Data room indexing can be a time-consuming and laborious task – especially when the documents you need to upload are stored in an unstructured way. At Imprima, we develop tools to help with laborious and low value tasks like […]
Flexible Q&A processes
At Imprima, we know that streamlining collaboration and knowledge-sharing is a time-critical and key part of the engagement process with investors and sell-side professionals alike. That’s why we’ve developed cutting-edge Q&A tools within the virtual data room that go beyond just providing a centralised hub for asking and answering questions. Our platform offers clever features […]
AI-Redaction that works in practice
AI redaction tools are designed to automatically detect and remove sensitive information from documents to ensure data privacy and security. In addition to accurate results, there are several important usability features that are crucial for a tool that will give you return on investment. Here are some key features you should look out for when […]
Unrivalled Customer Service: Going the Extra Mile!
Customers have more power than ever. The plethora of organisations competing for business means customers have an abundance of choice, should they become dissatisfied with their current providers. And, studies show that only 1 in 26 customers complain about a bad customer experience – the majority simply leave[1]. At Imprima, we are conscious of our […]
LLM-based AI – how accurate is it
In our previous post “Should we blindly trust AI?”, we discussed the main benefit of an accurate AI tool for information extraction. And that is that it saves the user time, and not that it takes the human out of the loop. At Imprima we like to be open about how accurate AI can be. […]
How Large Language Models change the game for Due Diligence Reviews
Technology deep dive (but don’t be put off if you are a non-technical person, we will keep it high-level) Last week we discussed why information extraction and automated document summaries for Due Diligence is a difficult nut to crack. This week we discuss how it can be done, with AI. But not just any AI. […]
The VDR as your AI Due Diligence Hub
Virtual Data Rooms (VDR) have transformed the way M&A takes place, providing both security and convenience to the transaction. With the now extensive capabilities VDRs offer, from document management, audit trails, detailed user permissions and Q&A functionality, to advanced reporting, and in some VDRs AI-based redaction, the VDR is an essential element of nearly all […]
The rise of automated tools for Due Diligence
The deluge of data in the last decade The massive increase in data over the past decade has significantly impacted the Due Diligence process in M&A. The volume of data that companies now have related to operations, customers, financials, etc. has exploded. This means more data to collect, process, and analyse during Due Diligence. The […]
Secure Redaction
AI redaction needs to be accurate (read more), automatic (read more), and easy to use. However, all these features are worthless if you can’t rely on the redaction to be securely implemented. You need to have the confidence that the people viewing the redacted documents can’t see what has been redacted, unless they are permitted. […]
Customised AI-redaction – making sure it redacts what you want redacted
Last week, we addressed the challenge of achieving perfect accuracy in automated redaction. We emphasised that even with the most advanced technology, perfect recall and precision are not feasible, despite what some vendors may claim. Contrary to the practice of other vendors, we like to be open about our accuracy statistics, and you can read […]
Accuracy of AI-redaction
In our previous blog post we discussed how advanced AI technology – driven by Large Language Models – can be used for automatic redaction of sensitive information. We mentioned that very high accuracy can be achieved with such technology. In this post we will show that the latter is indeed the case. Recall We already […]
Large Language Models for Automated Redaction
Technology deep dive (but don’t be put off if you are a non-technical person, we will keep it high-level) Last week we discussed how time limits and the likelihood for error make manual redaction very challenging, and why even automated redaction is a difficult nut to crack, at least with traditional search methods, and “Regular […]
“To Err is Human” – Redaction Challenges
Time and error Redacting documents can be time-consuming, particularly when dealing with a large volume of documents or complex information. Time pressure can arise due to impending deadlines, or the need to share information quickly while ensuring data privacy. When there isn’t enough time allocated for redaction, there is an increased risk of errors. We’ve […]
Where and when to redact documents
During M&A Due Diligence, prior to releasing all information to the buy-side, sellers often need to redact certain sensitive information to protect confidential or proprietary data (see part 1 of our series – Why redaction is so important). Even with smaller sized transactions, the redaction process can be a lengthy and painful task which can […]
Smart VDRs – It is all about Accuracy
Last week we shared our blog on Smart VDRs with you. It included some accuracy stats on Smart Summaries, the key Machine Learning tool to extract data points from transaction documentation (such as dates, locations, etc.). Before that we shared the accuracy stats of our Smart Redaction tool. Today we would like to zoom in […]
Smart VDR – a Paradigm Shift
Virtual Data Room (VDR) replaces Physical Data Rooms (2002-2022) 20 years ago, the M&A Due Diligence (DD) process changed fundamentally with the introduction of Virtual Data Rooms. Before then, DD was conducted by designating a separate physical room at the seller’s office, where physical copies of all company documentation pertinent to the DD were made […]
Two quick tips for an efficient management of VDR document titles
When it comes to managing high-value deals, the more productive you can be, the better. Unfortunately, many factors can hinder efficient working. From subpar VDR speed to inefficiently managed communication, to losing time on unnecessary admin while preparing the data room — there’s plenty that can slow your M&A team down. With the right tools […]
