CEPRES AInsights: Transforming Private Capital Markets for LPs and GPs

As private capital markets become increasingly complex, leveraging data-driven decision-making is essential for staying ahead and making informed investment choices. Private market investors often face an overwhelming influx of portfolio data, making it difficult to extract meaningful insights quickly and efficiently. Factors such as increasing data complexity, regulatory pressures, and market volatility make real-time, AI-powered insights essential for maintaining a competitive edge. 

Now, CEPRES AInsights, a cutting-edge artificial intelligence solution embedded within the CEPRES platform, is poised to revolutionize how private market professionals interact with complex investment data. By streamlining data analysis, providing natural language summaries, and enabling intuitive AI-driven queries, CEPRES AInsights enhances decision-making and drives efficiency in portfolio management.

CEPRES’ data depth is unparalleled, drawing directly from GPs’  Investment Book of Record (IBOR) and Accounting Book of Record (ABOR).

How AI is solving critical industry pain points

From managing vast amounts of data to responding to shifting economic conditions and regulatory pressures, navigating private capital markets presents significant challenges which can hinder efficient decision-making. 

One of the most significant pain points for investors is the sheer complexity of fund performance data. Traditionally, investors must manually parse extensive reports, tables, and charts to discern key insights. CEPRES AInsights mitigates this challenge by summarizing fund performance in natural language, enabling investors to quickly understand investment trends without technical expertise. This functionality significantly reduces the time required to extract valuable insights, allowing investors to focus on strategic decision-making.

Speed is another a decisive factor in investment decision-making. The traditional process of manually navigating financial dashboards, pulling reports, and synthesizing information can be time-consuming. CEPRES AInsights addresses this inefficiency by offering on-demand access to fund data through an intuitive AI-powered interface. With real-time summaries and interactive Q&A capabilities, investors can obtain crucial insights in seconds, improving their ability to respond swiftly to market shifts.

Additionally, investment performance indicators such as Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Multiple on Invested Capital (MOIC), and Public Market Equivalent (PME) are integral to private market assessments. However, these metrics are often presented in jargon-heavy formats, posing challenges for investors who may not have a deep technical background. CEPRES AInsights simplifies this by converting technical analyses into plain language explanations, ensuring that all stakeholders—regardless of expertise—can make well-informed decisions.

Better Investment Insights with CEPRES

While many providers have begun to offer AI-enabled analytics and fund data summarization, their functionality is limited by the lack of high-quality, granular data that’s needed to provide users with a comprehensive picture of their portfolio investments. By contrast, CEPRES AInsights is powered by the world’s largest private market data ecosystem, providing users with better investment insights through: 

  • Seamless Integration with CEPRES Portfolio Monitoring: Unlike standalone AI solutions, CEPRES AInsights is natively embedded within the CEPRES platform, ensuring direct and secure access to proprietary investment data.


  • Tailored Insights for Private Equity: While generic AI solutions provide broad AI capabilities, CEPRES AInsights is specifically designed for private market investors, offering precision-tuned insights that align with industry-specific needs.


  • Enhanced Data Security: Data privacy remains a top priority for institutional investors. CEPRES AInsights operates within the secure CEPRES ecosystem, ensuring compliance with industry-leading data protection standards and mitigating concerns associated with third-party AI tools.

CEPRES AInsights represents a fundamental shift in how private market investors will interact with financial data. By streamlining complex analyses, enabling rapid insights, and fostering deeper engagement with portfolio data, CEPRES AInsights empowers LPs and GPs to navigate the private capital markets with greater confidence and efficiency.
