Run month-end close checklist on autopilot inside PitchBook.

PitchBook M&A Analyst Transaction Advisory

The Problem

Every Transaction Advisory month-end runs on a checklist in Datasite that lives in someone's head — and when that person is out, close slips and reviewers have no visibility into what's done vs. waiting.

What We Build in PitchBook

AI runs the close checklist, prompts owners for missing items, flags JE variances over threshold, and writes the close memo — close window compresses from 10 business days to 4. Purpose-built for teams running PitchBook — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
