Platform

The AI Control Plane
for Deal Execution

Investment banking teams use Kaylo to run proposals faster, more consistently, and with full traceability — a structured workflow from data ingestion to client-ready export, not a tool you prompt.

Seven layers of
governed intelligence

01

Data Sources

CRM, email, research, filings, market data

02

Ingestion & Normalisation

Tagged by deal, client, sector, team, and source

03

Deal Workspace

Single source of truth per deal

04

AI Orchestration

Centrally governed prompt logic, context selection, output handling

05

Governance & Control

Source attribution, versioning, approval states, access controls

06

Institutional Memory

Precedent-grounded suggestions, continuous quality improvement

07

Output & Export

PPT and PDF in bank-standard formats

The build vs. buy question

Banks have the tools.
They're missing the layer.

The average deal team already runs GPT, Gemini, Copilot, Bloomberg, and CRM in parallel. Each tool generates insight. Each keeps it. None feed back into firm memory. None are governed. Building the layer that fixes this would take an internal team years — and it would still start from zero.

01  THE SILO PROBLEM

Every tool keeps the insight. Nothing compounds.

Banks use a mass of AI tooling. The issue is that none of it feeds back into a shared memory layer — insights stay inside the tool that generated them, and the IP compounds elsewhere. Kaylo sits above all of it and captures what they produce.

02  GOVERNANCE IS ARCHITECTURAL

You can't bolt an audit trail on after the fact.

Role-based access, data lineage, approval states, and MNPI barriers have to be designed into the first ingestion — not retrofitted onto an existing pipeline. Internal IT builds features. Kaylo builds the architecture, purpose-built for regulated deal environments.

03  THE COMPOUNDING GAP

Every edit in Word or PowerPoint disappears.

When analysts take AI output into external tools to revise it, that learning is lost. Kaylo captures every accepted change back into institutional memory, linked to the original source and the reasoning behind it. The next mandate starts with what the last one learned.

From raw deal context to
client-ready proposals

A structured deal workspace that tags every piece of incoming data — CRM contacts, email threads, transcripts, filings — by deal, client, sector, team, and source. Proposal sections are generated using centrally governed prompt logic, not open-ended user prompts: the system selects the relevant context, routes to the right model, and validates output before surfacing it. Every edit made inside Kaylo is written back into institutional memory.

  • Metadata-rich ingestion tagged by deal, sector, team, and source
  • Centrally governed prompt logic — context selection is system-controlled, not user-defined
  • MD review and approval workflow with versioned output states
  • In-system edits feed back into firm memory — not lost to Word or PowerPoint

Every claim traceable.
Every output governed.

Every piece of content in Kaylo carries a complete lineage chain — original source, ingestion metadata, access control state, model routing decision, generation parameters, and approval state. Governance isn't a layer added on top: it's enforced at every step from the first byte ingested. The result is output a compliance team can interrogate, not just an MD can trust.

  • Full source-to-output lineage — original data, transformation logic, and reasoning preserved
  • RBAC enforced at deal, team, and role level — MNPI barriers built in
  • Approval states: Draft → Reviewed → Approved — versioned and immutable
  • Every user action logged — complete audit trail from ingestion to export

Research-to-answer
in minutes, not hours

Atlas runs semantic search across a metadata-tagged corpus of deal files, filings, transcripts, and research — routing each query to the most appropriate model based on task type, cost, and latency. Answers are cited at the source-chunk level, not just the document. Insights saved by analysts are written back into the deal's memory layer, not stored in a chat session that disappears.

  • Semantic retrieval across tagged deal corpus — filings, transcripts, CRM, research
  • Model-agnostic routing — task, cost, and latency-aware
  • Citations at source-chunk level — not just document reference
  • Analyst insights written back into deal memory — not lost to the session

Five principles that
guide every decision

Workflow first, AI second

Structured deal workflows powered by AI, not a chatbot. The value is in the process, not the prompt.

MD-grade or don't ship

Every output must meet the standard of a Managing Director reviewing it cold.

Evidence over opinion

Every claim, number, and narrative traceable to a source. Institutional trust is built on lineage.

Compound with use

The product gets better with every deal. Institutional memory, approved precedents, and feedback loops are the moat.

Enterprise-real from day one

Permissions, audit trails, compliance, and data isolation are not afterthoughts — they're foundational.
