Considerations for Business Owners and Executives Taking Their Company Public

Optimise for efficiency and compliance from day one

Expedite all regulatory reporting
Streamline your IPO process with leading-edge software that makes regulatory reporting easy and fast. Draft within Microsoft Word and Excel, distribute proofs in seconds, and track every change with complete control over your documents.
Built-in compliance capabilities, including r-tagging, hyperlinking and automated submission headers, ensure you’re ahead of SEC mandates and your own deadlines.

Prioritise privacy and compliance
Safeguard and share your most sensitive documents with all your stakeholders. Our easy-to-use data rooms include privacy scans, contract analytics and auto redaction for full transparency and SOX compliance.

Faster review with AI by your side
Need insight on your contracts and vendor relationships? Extract key provisions and data points from thousands of documents in minutes – and say goodbye to the grind and inaccuracy of manual contract review.

Streamline Section 16 Filing
Once you’ve completed your IPO, stay compliant and streamline Section 16 filing. We’ll help you prepare Forms 3, 4 and 5, distribute the documents to directors, executives and officers and file electronically.
