Yesterday, I shared how we partnered with Anthropic to build an AI agent for due diligence. Today, I'm excited to share what we built with it... 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗽 — our research preview of AI-powered business due diligence. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺 𝗪𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 Every day, professionals across finance, sales, procurement, and compliance spend hours researching businesses. They check company registries across jurisdictions. They manually screen sanctions lists. They Google for adverse media. They piece together ownership structures from scattered documents. Then they do it all over again for the next company. This manual process is slow, error-prone, and becomes a massive bottleneck as organizations scale. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗽 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 Give Grep a business name. In under 3 minutes, you get a complete intelligence report: • Verified business profile with locations, key personnel, and contact details • Ownership structure with UBO verification across 190+ jurisdictions • Compliance screening across OFAC, UN, EU, UK sanctions lists, plus PEP and adverse media • Risk assessment covering country risk, industry risk, and overall rating • Financial intelligence including revenue estimates and SEC filings for public companies Then you can ask follow-up questions in natural language: "What is their estimated revenue?" "Are there any regulatory violations?" "Who are the beneficial owners?" Grep answers in real-time, citing every source. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝘀 𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 Grep isn't a business directory serving stale data from quarterly snapshots. And unlike other AI research tools that give you chat responses, Grep produces structured intelligence reports designed for easy readability and export. The Agent SDK enables Grep to reason through each investigation dynamically. It knows when to dig deeper into ownership structures. It understands which jurisdictions require additional verification. It adapts its research based on what it finds, just like a human analyst would. The result? Reports you can actually share with stakeholders, not just conversations buried in a chat interface. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 We're seeing teams use Grep for: - Customer onboarding and enhanced due diligence - Vendor screening across supply chains - Pre-call prospect research - Counterparty investigations - M&A target research Research Preview Access We're making Grep available free through December at grep.ai with invite code: 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗣𝗜𝗧! This is a research preview because we want your feedback. How does it fit into your workflows? What should we build next? Built on our SOC 2 Type II certified platform — the same infrastructure banks and fintechs trust for compliance workflows. Try it out and let us know what you think. Link to Grep in comments.
