We make due diligence questionnaires disappear.
Trapol8 is an AI-native knowledge sharing platform for due diligence questionnaires. IR teams at asset managers spend days, sometimes weeks, manually answering the same questions across dozens of investor questionnaires, so we automate the drafting, routing, and approval of those responses. We now build the other side of that exchange too: the allocators and investment consultants asking the questions use Trapol8 to create, distribute, and analyze their DDQs. We're a small, tight-knit team founded in 2023 by Bob Gates, who previously built and sold Landdox (acquired by Quorum, backed by Thoma Bravo and Francisco Partners). We have real customers, real momentum, and a hard problem worth solving.
