Sharper insight. Stronger bids. Superior outcomes.

Our Mission

Diligize provides the technological edge that enables private-equity investors to win more deals—at the right price—and crystallise higher value at exit. By fusing a deep understanding of enterprise technology with state-of-the-art artificial intelligence, we transform raw data into conviction, speed and negotiating power.

  • PRE-DEAL
    Diligize Insight: Alt Human deconstructs every workflow, data flow and customer touchpoint to quantify the proportion of operation
    How it translates to value: Supports higher bids where automation upside is material and enforces price discipline where it is not

  • HOLD PERIOD
    Diligize Insight: Agentic bots implement and monitor the automation roadmap, feeding real‑time KPI telemetry to deal and operating teams.
    How it translates to value: Accelerates EBITDA expansion and builds a documented track‑record of improvement

  • PRE-EXIT
    Diligize Insight: Live dashboards translate realised and forecast automation gains into defendable valuation uplifts and tangible service‑extension stories.
    How it translates to value: Shortens buyer diligence and underpins premium multiples.

About Diligize

A Heritage of European Rigour and Innovation

Founded in London in 2019 by Davide Boiardi, Diligize emerged to modernise the private-equity operating model. Early collaborations with Oxford, Stanford, Zurich and Texas produced AI-driven Voice-of Customer and Voice-of Employee platforms, well ahead of modern-day providers.

Our research division, D-LAB, has since launched Alt Human, a family of agentic AI bots that operate across the lifecycle:

Pre-deal.

Renders profitability, technology debt and cyber posture in probabilistic models that inform bid strategy.

Hold period.

Continuously monitors operational KPIs, providing prescriptive recommendations to management teams and operating partners.

Pre-exit.

Generates live valuation and growth-attribution dashboards, evidencing uplift for prospective buyers.
