Solve gives you structured investment analysis that goes beyond surface level research. Whether you are an investor evaluating a deal, a founder preparing for fundraising, or a team building a business case, Solve builds theses, runs due diligence frameworks, and evaluates business models. You can attach internal documents like financial models or pitch decks to give Solve additional context.

Types of investment analysis

Comparable analysisHow similar companies were valued, what multiples apply, and relevant benchmarksValuation, fundraising strategy

Example prompts

Build an investment thesis for vertical SaaS companies
targeting the construction industry. What's the market
opportunity, what are the key tailwinds, who are the
leading players (Procore, PlanGrid, Buildertrend), and
what does a winner in this space look like?

Due diligence frameworks

Request specific frameworks by name. You can combine frameworks in a single prompt. For example: “Run a competitive moat analysis and unit economics evaluation for [company description].” Solve structures the output with clearly labeled sections for each.
Evaluates the target market on size, growth rate, competitive intensity, buyer concentration, and barriers to entry. Produces a scorecard you can use to compare opportunities.
Assesses whether a company has a defensible position: network effects, switching costs, data advantages, brand, or economies of scale. Identifies which moats are real and which are aspirational.
Analyzes LTV/CAC ratios, payback periods, gross margins, and net revenue retention. Flags whether the economics support the growth plan.
Categorizes risks by likelihood and impact: market risk, execution risk, competitive risk, regulatory risk, and technology risk. Provides mitigation strategies for the highest priority risks.
Evaluates whether current growth rates are sustainable by examining market headroom, sales efficiency, product-market fit signals, and expansion revenue potential.

What results include

An investment analysis report contains six sections. Start with the thesis statement to understand the core argument before reviewing supporting detail.
Report sectionWhat it covers
Thesis statementClear, one paragraph summary of the investment opportunity: what the bet is, why it is compelling, and the key assumptions it rests on.
Market analysisSize, growth rate, dynamics, and competitive landscape. Establishes whether the opportunity is big enough to matter.
Competitive positioningWhere the company (or hypothetical company) sits relative to alternatives: strengths, weaknesses, and defensibility.
Financial analysis or projectionsUnit economics, revenue model analysis, comparable valuations, or ROI projections depending on what you asked for.
Risk assessmentStructured view of what could go wrong, categorized by type, rated by severity, with mitigation approaches where applicable.
RecommendationClear recommendation (invest/pass, build/do not build, or pursue/defer) with the reasoning summarized.

Tips for better investment analysis

Include specific data points about the company or deal in your prompt so Solve can start with the right scope.
If you are evaluating a specific company, include whatever data you have: ARR, growth rate, customer count, retention, funding stage. The more data Solve has, the more specific the analysis.
Are you looking for high growth? Capital efficiency? Market dominance? Telling Solve what matters to you shapes the evaluation criteria and recommendations.
Request “Give me the bull case and bear case for this investment.” This forces a balanced analysis rather than a one-sided pitch, and surfaces risks you might overlook.
Ask Solve to compare two opportunities: “Should we invest in vertical SaaS for restaurants or for gyms?” Comparative analysis often produces sharper insights than evaluating a single option.
Every investment thesis rests on assumptions. After the initial report, ask: “What are the three most critical assumptions in this thesis, and what evidence supports or contradicts each one?”
Investment analysis from Solve is based on publicly available data and AI reasoning. It should inform your thinking, not replace professional financial due diligence. Validate with primary research, expert opinions, and domain specific knowledge before making investment decisions.
