## The Problem

Middle Market M&A LOIs go through 4–8 rounds of redlines per deal — and the manual diff/comment tracking in DealCloud drags the deal between rounds.

## What We Build in DealCloud

AI drafts each LOI round against firm playbook in DealCloud, summarizes what changed, flags non-standard terms, and tracks the negotiation timeline — round-trip time drops to hours. Purpose-built for teams running DealCloud — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## DealCloud Integration Approach

1. **Audit your DealCloud configuration.** We map the specific DealCloud objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your middle market m&a practice.
2. **Build on the DealCloud API or agent.** Integration happens inside DealCloud — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in DealCloud with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
