For investment banks
Investment banking coverage, without the analyst-weeks
Coverage teams follow more names every year without more people to follow them. NeuraCap does the gathering — filings, estimates, peers, transactions — and hands back a comparable set, a precedent record and a valuation range with the reasoning attached.
- Cover more names
- Tailor analysis for origination
- Build the comps and precedents
- Frame a defensible range
- Keep the sector view current
The current state
What slows this down today
The comparable set is a week of work
A real peer group is read, not filtered. Someone works through business descriptions, pulls fundamentals, calendarises them to a common year end, then hunts the data error that threw a multiple out tenfold.
Precedents live in three places and disagree
Announced values, disclosed multiples and the version in the last pitch book rarely reconcile. The deal that settles the argument is often three years old, in a sub-sector nobody screened.
Coverage decays between meetings
A sector view built in March is a liability by September. Refreshing forty names by hand is nobody’s job, so the pack goes out with numbers that were right two quarters ago.
Origination is a volume problem
The analysis that wins a mandate is built for that company specifically. Doing that by hand across thirty names is not a plan, so most outreach goes out generic.
The change
How NeuraCap changes the workflow
Comparables and valuation
A range you can defend when it is challenged
- The problem
- A peer set and a valuation range take a week of analyst time before anyone starts arguing about the answer.
- Why it matters
- The range is the part the client remembers. If you cannot say why a company is in the peer set, the range is not defensible.
- In NeuraCap
- NeuraCap assembles the peer group, calendarises the fundamentals, applies the primary valuation basis stated for that sector and cross-checks it on EV/Revenue. Plausibility gates exclude implausible multiples, so they are never plotted.
- What you get
- A football-field chart across methods, the peer table underneath it, and a per-figure note of where each number came from.
- The decision it enables
- What range goes in front of a board, and which method you will stand behind when it is questioned.
M&A precedents
The transaction record, already reconciled
- The problem
- Precedent multiples sit across deal databases, press releases and old pitch books, and the versions disagree.
- Why it matters
- A precedent built on a disclosed value nobody checked is the quickest way to lose a room, and it is the first number a sophisticated buyer tests.
- In NeuraCap
- NeuraCap screens a structured transaction record by sub-sector, period and size band, confirming each figure against two independent sources at a 97.5% confirmation rate.
- What you get
- A precedent table with announcement dates, structures and multiples, plus what was excluded from the set and why.
- The decision it enables
- Where the market has actually cleared, and whether your range sits inside it or outside it.
From a name to a pitch-ready pack
Start with the name
Search a public company by name or ticker and the analysis is assembled from the filing record. For a private target, enter what you have.
Set the peer group
NeuraCap proposes a comparable set and shows why each name is in it. Cut or add names, and the medians, percentiles and KPI benchmarks recalculate.
Frame the range
A primary valuation basis is stated for the sector and cross-checked on EV/Revenue. Plausibility gates keep implausible multiples out of the chart entirely.
Interrogate it
The Financial Assistant takes natural-language questions over that company’s analysis: where the margin gap sits, why the peer discount exists.
Take it out
Export to PDF or PPTX. The chart, the peer table and the source note travel together, so the reasoning survives the handover.
Each step maps to a part of the platform: public company analysis for the peer set, valuation analysis for the football field, M&A intelligence for the precedents, and the Financial Assistant for the questions that come after.

Straight answers
The objections bankers raise first
- Does NeuraCap replace an analyst?
- No. It removes the gathering, the reconciling and the formatting. Judgement, structuring and the client relationship stay with your team. The point is to move analyst hours from assembling a page to defending it.
- Where do the numbers come from?
- Public-company fundamentals come from SEC EDGAR filings where applicable, with consensus estimates for revenue, EBITDA and EPS, market price data and a structured M&A transaction record alongside them. Private-company data is user-provided and enriched. Multiples, medians and percentiles are calculated, and the narrative is AI-assisted interpretation. Each is labelled as such.
- Is a NeuraCap valuation an appraisal or a fairness opinion?
- No. Nothing produced here is a recommendation to buy or sell a security, an offer or a solicitation, a formal appraisal or a fairness opinion, and no fiduciary relationship is created. It is analysis to inform your own opinion.
- What does it cost?
- Pricing depends on the team, the coverage and whether advisory work is attached, so it is quoted rather than listed. Contact us and we will scope it.
