8 weeks to launch

Every quarter, the finance team spent three weeks assembling PDFs: pulling numbers from spreadsheets, formatting reports per fund, and emailing them to hundreds of LPs, then answering the same 'can you resend' and 'what's my current position' emails for the next month.

LPs with positions in three funds got three separate PDFs and no way to see their whole picture. For a firm raising its next fund, the reporting experience was quietly becoming a diligence question.

What we did

The approach, decision by decision

  1. 01

    One data model across every fund

    Normalized capital accounts, commitments, and distributions across funds with different terms, so an LP's full position renders from one source of truth.

  2. 02

    Security designed for institutional diligence

    SSO, document watermarking, granular entitlements, and full audit trails, built to pass the operational due diligence questionnaires LPs actually send.

  3. 03

    Made quarter-close a pipeline, not a project

    Finance uploads the closing numbers, previews every LP's view, and publishes once. The three-week assembly line became a two-day review.

The results

  • Quarterly reporting cycle down from three weeks to two days.
  • 400+ LPs onboarded across five funds with SSO and zero password resets to support.
  • Investor email requests down 90%; positions and documents are self-serve.
  • The portal is now shown in fundraising as part of the firm's operations story.
