# American Fund-of-Funds Automates Investment Memo Creation with Dcipher Analytics

## The Challenge
An American Fund-of-Funds follows a rigorous due diligence process when evaluating potential investments. This process involves:
1. Analyzing large volumes of unstructured and structured data, including documents from General Partners (GPs), internal research, meeting notes, and site visit reports.
2. Manually compiling this data into a structured investment memo, following a predefined format and specific writing style.
3. Spending one to two months per memo, making memo creation a time-consuming and resource-intensive task.

## The Solution
The firm leveraged Dcipher Analytics’ Report Generator to automate the first draft of their investment memos, leveraging AI-driven text analytics and customized report generation.

### How It Worked
- Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) – Dcipher trained AI models on the firm’s previous investment memos to match the correct style, structure, and content expectations.
- Automated Report Generation – Dcipher’s AI-powered Report Generator created a first draft of each memo, incorporating key insights from the data room.
- Source Traceability – Every statement in the AI-generated memo was linked back to its original source, ensuring that analysts could validate and refine the content easily.

## The Results
- Accelerated investment memo creation – Analysts saved approximately one month per memo, significantly reducing workload.
- Improved efficiency – Analysts could focus more on high-value analysis and decision-making rather than spending time on manual data synthesis.
- Maintained consistency and accuracy – The AI-generated memos followed the firm’s established style and structure, ensuring alignment with past reports.
- Enhanced due diligence workflow – The firm streamlined its investment evaluation process, allowing for faster and more informed decision-making.
