ledger/danielle for finance diligence
Ledger.

Read the finance document against the rule that governs it.

Side letters and fund documents, credit agreements and covenants, consumer-debt portfolios. Where the cost of review used to break the matter, Ledger ingests the corpus in hours and surfaces the terms — most-favored-nation, transfer restrictions, covenant breaches, chain-of-title gaps — cited to the document.

01/what ledger reads

Every term, every assignment, every covenant — cited.

One harness, three document worlds. Each turns on terms buried across thousands of pages — the most-favored-nation clause in a side-letter stack, the covenant that just tripped, the assignment that never closed the chain. Ledger reads them all against the rules that govern them.

track·PRIVATE EQUITY & FUNDS
Side letters & fund documents

A side-letter stack is dozens of one-off agreements, each quietly amending the LPA. Ledger reads the whole stack at once and tracks most-favored-nation and transfer-restriction terms across every letter — so an MFN election in one knows what every other LP was promised. LPAs and subscription documents, read against the fund terms they sit on.

MFN trackingtransfer restrictions
track·CREDIT & COVENANTS
Credit agreements & covenants

Credit agreements run hundreds of pages of defined terms, baskets, and carve-outs. Ledger reads the agreement against the position and tests covenant compliance line by line — financial maintenance, negative covenants, reporting. It reconciles intercreditor terms across the stack and flags the breach before the lender does.

track·CONSUMER-DEBT VALIDATION
Debt-buyer portfolios

The flagship use case. Chain-of-title diligence from original creditor to current owner, statute of limitations by state and debt type, and Reg F §1006.34 readiness. Plaintiff and defense work across debt-buyer portfolios — the deep story below.

02/deep dive · consumer debt

Where review cost used to break the case.

Take the consumer-debt track. A median debt collection matter involves a $1,200 disputed balance and a 3,000-page account history. At standard review rates, the discovery cost exceeds the disputed amount. That math kills cases on both sides — plaintiffs settle weak claims to avoid the burden; defendants take losses they could have fought. The sections that follow walk this use case end to end; the same harness reads the side letters and credit agreements above.

03/native handling

The document shapes that repeat.

Staying with the consumer-debt track: these portfolios are repetitive. The harness knows the shapes — statements, assignments, affidavits, dunning letters — so you don't train it on each new matter. The same is true of side-letter stacks and credit agreements in the other tracks. The source document is never re-rendered or flattened; every finding — an MFN trigger, a covenant breach, a chain-of-title gap — cites the exact clause and page in the original.
