Aerial

Aerial tries to be the heavy lifter in the grueling world of M&A due diligence, where you’re buried in piles of contracts, financials, and legal jargon. It uses machine learning to chew through documents faster than a human could, flagging risks and oddities that usually take teams days or weeks to spot. But it’s not just a robot spitting out numbers; it’s supposed to slot into the messy, high-stakes workflows of dealmakers who need quick, trustworthy insights before dropping millions. The real catch? It aims to cut down the guesswork and grunt work without turning you into a data scientist, which sounds great, but in practice, you have to wrestle a bit with what the AI actually highlights and how it fits your particular deal’s quirks. It’s not magic, but it’s a serious attempt at making due diligence less of a soul-crushing slog.
