AI Redaction
A sell-side advisor managing 8 bidders needs to redact customer names, specific revenue figures, and proprietary terms from every document before Phase 1. Manually scanning a 200-page CIM, a financial model, and 30 customer contracts takes an analyst days — and a single missed name on page 147 can blow confidentiality and kill the process.
Peony's AI redaction scans every page in seconds, flags PII, financial data, and sensitive terms, and suggests redactions before you share. Your team reviews and approves — the original text is permanently and irrecoverably removed from the shared version. When you move bidders from Phase 1 to Phase 2, share the unredacted version to the shortlist without rebuilding the room.
Catches what fatigue misses. AI scans footnotes, appendices, waterfall schedules, and embedded tables — the places where analysts miss PII after hours of manual review.
Stage-gated disclosure without duplicate rooms. Redact for Phase 1 bidders, then share unredacted versions with your shortlist — same room, different permission levels.
Faster processes, more mandates. Redaction that took days now takes hours. Advisors close sell-side processes faster and have capacity for the next mandate.
Liability protection. A leaked customer name from a missed redaction is the advisor's liability. AI gives your compliance team a safety net that manual review alone cannot match.
