Due Diligence Document Request Agent
Manages the due diligence document request list for M&A or investment deals, tracking outstanding items, chasing counterparties, and flagging incomplete disclosures.
Due diligence processes involve tracking dozens to hundreds of requested documents from a target company or counterparty across a shared data room, and deal teams routinely lose track of which items are still outstanding, which have been partially fulfilled with insufficient detail, and which need a follow-up chase, all while working under tight deal timelines
Manually maintaining a request tracker in a spreadsheet is tedious and falls out of date quickly as documents trickle in
This agent maintains the master due diligence request list, monitors the connected data room for new uploads, matches them against outstanding request items, and flags uploads that appear incomplete or insufficiently responsive to the original request
It automatically sends polite follow-up chases for items still outstanding past a configured interval, keeping the deal team focused on substantive review rather than tracker maintenance
The agent is initialized with the due diligence request list, mapping each item to its category and the responsible counterparty contact. It monitors the connected virtual data room for new or updated uploads, matching each file against the request list using filename, folder placement, and content analysis, and marks items fulfilled, partially fulfilled, or outstanding. For any item unfulfilled past the configured chase interval, it drafts and sends a follow-up request to the counterparty contact, and it flags uploads that appear to only partially satisfy the original ask for deal team review.
