Its platform applies machine learning to aggregate and analyze millions of data points from public registers, company filings, and proprietary sources, generating detailed profiles on over four million businesses in minutes rather than weeks. Each AI-generated report undergoes a human-in-the-loop validation process, where expert analysts dedicate hours to refine critical information on ownership structures, financial performance, market positioning, and strategic initiatives. This hybrid model enables investors, advisors, and corporate strategists in private equity, M&A, and consulting to make faster, more informed decisions. Trusted by blue-chip clients such as Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, Blackstone, and all Big Four firms, Gain.pro has supported over one trillion dollars in private capital commitments. Its innovative application of generative AI for deal sourcing, due diligence, and competitive intelligence earned it the Best Use of AI in Finance Europe 2025 award, highlighting its leadership in next-generation financial intelligence.
