Use case

Run a data room in hours, not weeks.

Quillio bulk-processes due diligence document sets, surfaces material risks, and produces structured red-flag reports — built for AU commercial M&A and investment practice.

In short

Quillio's due diligence feature processes M&A data rooms, lease portfolios, and investment due diligence document sets in parallel. It surfaces material risks across the entire document set, builds disclosure indices, and produces structured red-flag reports for the deal team. Built for the volume that drowns AU commercial transactions practice.

Before & after

What changes

Without Quillio

A typical mid-market M&A data room contains 800-2,000 documents. Manual due diligence by a junior team takes 2-4 weeks at $300+/hour, with the senior reviewing the red-flag report at the end.

With Quillio

Quillio processes the same data room in hours. The senior reviews the red-flag report on day one — and the team's billable hours go to negotiation, not document triage.

How it works

From upload to output

1

Upload the data room

Bulk upload all data room documents. Quillio handles standard data room structures and large document sets.

2

Tell Quillio whether this is M&A, investment, lease portfolio, or other. Specify the key risk areas you want surfaced (change of control, indemnities, IP, employment, etc.).

3

Get the red-flag report

Structured report grouping findings by category, severity, and document. Each finding sourced back to the underlying document.

4

Drill in or escalate

Questions

AI Due Diligence FAQs

How does Quillio compare to a junior team running due diligence?

Quillio is faster and at least as thorough on the structured, repetitive parts of due diligence — surfacing the standard risk categories, building disclosure indices, and producing red-flag reports. It is not a substitute for the deal team's judgment on strategic risks, valuation impact, and negotiation strategy. Used together — Quillio for triage, the senior team for judgment — most M&A deals move materially faster.

Can Quillio handle large data rooms?

Yes. Quillio processes data rooms with thousands of documents in parallel. There is no per-document limit; large transactions are common.

How does Quillio handle confidentiality?

SOC 2 Type II + ISO 27001 + Australian-hosted infrastructure. M&A material — which is highly sensitive — stays on Australian soil and is not used to train any model. Many AU commercial practices use Quillio specifically because of the residency answer.

Can I customise the risk categories Quillio surfaces?

Yes. You specify the risk categories at the start of the due diligence run. Quillio adapts the red-flag report to those categories.

Does Quillio identify gaps in the data room?

Yes. Quillio cross-references the disclosure schedule against the documents actually provided and flags missing or incomplete responses.

Can I share findings with the deal team?

Yes. Findings can be exported to a structured report (Word or PDF) for the deal team, or shared as a live working document inside Quillio with permission controls.
