For consulting and investment teams

The entire expert call workflow. In one place.

expertaize brings expert profiles from every network into one place, finds the right expert for each diligence question, and carries the call through to insights.

The problem

Finding experts is easy. Choosing the right one isn't.

Teams spend hours every week picking experts across several channels, and still end up in calls with an expert who can't answer the question.

8–12 h

per week on expert selection, per diligence

10+

networks in parallel, across 3+ channels: email, Slack, Teams

$1,000–2,000+

per call hour, paid even when the fit is wrong

  1. 01

    Profiles everywhere

    Every network sends profiles through its own channel, in its own format. Each one is copied over by hand.

  2. 02

    Questions that change daily

    The client sends new questions mid-week. Yesterday's shortlist is already outdated.

  3. 03

    Poor fit, found out on the call

    Eight minutes in, it's clear the expert can't answer the question. The slot is gone.

  4. 04

    Analysis in yet another tool

    After the call, transcripts, notes and synthesis move to separate tools again.

expertaize turns this into one workflow.

Platform

What changes for your team.

  • Less manual screening
  • Less switching between tools
  • Fewer separate subscriptions
  • Faster expert selection
  1. Profiles from every network, whether by email, Slack or Teams, are consolidated, structured and deduplicated. The team works from one overview instead of inboxes and spreadsheets.

    • All networks, one pool
    • Duplicates across networks merged and ranked by rate
    • Availability recorded and taken into account
    • Searchable by role, employer, recency and rate
  2. Experts are matched against your specific, changing diligence questions. Each expert gets one score that already reflects how well the profile backs it, and gaps are shown, so low-value calls are caught before they are booked.

    • Fit against an always up-to-date question catalog
    • One score, with the strength of evidence built in
    • The profile lines behind every score
    • Gaps turned into questions for the network
    • Models improve continuously for better fits

    Language models read and structure the profiles; dedicated machine-learning models produce the scores. Same inputs, same ranking, evidence always shown.

  3. expertaize covers selection, scheduling, the call, transcription and insight extraction in one place, replacing a separate tool for each step.

    • Call requests go straight to the network
    • Transcript lands on the expert profile
    • Insights filed under the question they answer
    • Report generated from the confirmed statements, ready to send

Pilot partners

Become a pilot partner.

expertaize launches in Q1 2027. Ahead of launch, we're looking for a small group of consulting and investment teams to shape it around real diligences.

No. Networks keep sending profiles the way they do today. expertaize is simply copied in.

We set up expertaize on one of your live diligences with sanitized questions and work through it with your team. Your feedback shapes what we build before launch.
