review

Advanced tasks like doing a scenario analysis on a portfolio, or adjusting portfolio to changing market conditions are not even contemplated today. Tasks which would greatly enhance strategic insights and operational capabilities of managing the portfolio.

Routine tasks like calculating a borrowing base, or calculating daily liquidity require intense effort due to the very manual nature of DGRF.

FAQ

Get answers to your frequently asked questions

What is Pepper ?

Pepper is private credit and alternative asset management software — the operating system for managers who need deal management, portfolio monitoring, covenant compliance, fund operations, and LP reporting to work from a single source of data. It replaces the fragmented combination of spreadsheets, legacy platforms, and point tools that most alternative asset managers still rely on — and is purpose-built for the instrument complexity and reporting demands of private credit, secondaries, and fund of funds.

How does Pepper use AI?

Pepper AI is built on the structured, investment-grade data your team creates in the platform — not on generic training data. Because the underlying data is clean, connected, and specific to your portfolio, the outputs are verifiable in a way that generic AI tools cannot match. Current live capabilities include: document extraction from CIMs and term sheets, covenant early warning signal detection, portfolio-level stress scenario modelling, and relationship intelligence across your CRM counterparty network.

How long does implementation take?

Most private credit and alternatives managers are operationally live on Pepper within 90 days. Legacy platforms like eFront and Allvue typically require 12–18 months. The difference is design intent: Pepper's default configuration already reflects how alternative asset managers work — direct lending workflows, secondaries data structures, fund of funds reporting logic — so implementation is configuration, not construction.

How does Pepper work?

Pepper is built natively on the cloud and all its functionality sits on a secure cloud platform. Users access through a secured browser connection. There are no local installations. Pepper can integrate directly with your existing systems, data providers and administrators. Cost of usage is based on the period of contract and the total usage of the platform. You never ever have to buy or replace an equipment. It scales effortlessly based on your needs. And you always are working on the latest version of the software.

Can I customize Pepper?

A user can unload an unlimited number of documents related to the fund, deals, and transactions. Pepper’s document searches through every document, providing critical access to trapped information.

Who at my fund can use Pepper ?

Pepper is built to be used by everyone at a fund.. Pepper supports the end-to-end investment lifecycle. Users typically include: analysts, investment committee member, portfolio managers, investor relations, operations, finance and compliance. There are no restrictions on the number of users. Every user gets his or her login based on the roles and responsibilities

We have existing software at our fund. Will you work with those products?

Pepper is designed to work in an ecosystem. We integrate with a variety of other products that extend the productivity at an Investment Management firm. We will be happy to integrate with any tools that you are currently using and ensure seamless data flow.

How does Pepper get its data ?

Pepper works for the Fund Manager. It captures the deals, transactions, and operations data through a variety of ways, including data imports, APIs, Excel interface, data extraction from PDFs, as well as plain old manual inputs.

Does Pepper have a CRM ?

Pepper has a CRM system custom-built for asset managers. Our CRM allows portfolio managers to track every aspect of their deal flow, from key dates, contacts, documents, workflows, and files, all stored directly at the deal level. We offer at-a-glance views of all underlying holdings in each deal, coming directly from the live asset library, email and calendar integration directly into the Pepper system, as well as API connectivity to tools you may already be using, such as Slack, Dropbox, Hubspot, and more.
