Bring Out for M&A, generative AI analysis of consultant conversations (beta)
Nihon M&A Center found that top consultants spent about 1.9 times as long explaining synergy hypotheses, using conversation data in a beta AI tool
Problem
M&A proposal quality depended on individual consultants. The company wanted to see what its best consultants did differently in client conversations.
Approach
Nihon M&A Center built Bring Out for M&A (beta) together with Bring Out, a conversation-data analysis company. The generative AI tool uses recorded conversations from interviews, company profile proposals and kickoff meetings. The analysis covered more than 600 consultants. Planned features include automatic proposal material creation and support for presenting synergy hypotheses.
Results
Takeaway
Recorded conversations gave the company a measurable difference between top performers and the average. The tool was still in beta and no business results were reported.
