Learns your firm

Starts by learning how you invest.

Give Amaya your investment thesis, IC memos, LP letters and past decisions. It builds a working thesis with supporting references. Nothing applies until a partner confirms it, and it keeps learning as your team decides.

intake quotes it on every deal it reads

What we look for

Software sold to the operators of storage and grid assets, not to homeowners
Paying customers before the round, not letters of intent
A founder who has run the workflow the product replaces

Interviews

Then it asks the founder the hard questions.

Lily, Amaya's AI interviewer, calls the founder and the people they name. She says she's an AI before she asks anything, asks only the questions your analyst approved, and her answers come back linked to the claims they test.

Two ratings

Two ratings for every company.

How resilient is it to AI disruption? How well does it fit your investment criteria? Each rating assesses 12 components across three groups, with supporting evidence for review. The two ratings remain separate.
