Analytical advisory for private capital.

Congruity Research works with investment managers and the companies they back: fund economics, transaction support, and the commercial evidence behind capital decisions.

Practice areas

Fund economics and LP reporting

Distribution waterfall construction and independent review: preferred return, catch-up, and carried interest tiers, side letter terms, and per-LP allocation schedules, including distributions in kind. Support for quarter-end LP reporting and distribution notices, built to hold up under auditor and LP scrutiny.

Transaction and capital advisory

Investment readiness for companies raising capital or preparing for a transaction: financial modeling, valuation support, and investor materials. Engagements have run from a seed raise (Metalytics) to pre-IPO financing support (Richtech Robotics, Nasdaq: RR).

Commercial and market analysis

Market sizing, buyer research, and go-to-market validation: the commercial case behind an investment, expansion, or portfolio decision. Delivered standalone, or through Congruity B2B, our dedicated GTM validation practice.
