The challenge
A venture firm needed weekly intelligence on each company in its portfolio: industry shifts, competitor moves, regulatory changes. Every company operated in a different sector, so the research had to be specific to each one. Done by hand, it took a junior analyst four to six hours a week, and even then the depth and consistency varied from week to week.
What we built
A research agent configured to each company in the portfolio. It runs overnight: it pulls the week's news, writes a deep-dive for each company, and assembles one consolidated report delivered to email, Slack, and a dashboard every Monday morning.
The result
What used to take a junior analyst four to six hours a week is now done overnight, automatically. The firm walks into Monday already knowing what moved across the whole portfolio, with no one having spent the time to compile it.
Why it matters for your business
The machinery here, scheduled research and automatic delivery on a regular cadence, applies far beyond venture capital. If your team manually compiles the same kind of report week after week, watching competitors, suppliers, regulations, or key accounts, this is the shape of automating it. The work still gets done. It just stops eating someone's week.
