If you live in deal docs, six things just got easier in Brightwave 🧵

You onboard a new analyst by showing them the format your firm delivers in. They learn it once. Every deliverable after lands share-ready. Templates in Brightwave work the same way. Upload your IC memo, deal deck, or model once, agents build every future output directly into it. Paired with Skills, Brightwave replicates almost all of your current workflows. Tutorial: youtu.be/z2APjiYDitg

Every firm has a playbook: the way your senior analysts read a 10-K, the questions they ask on every management call, the cross-checks they run before anything hits the IC. Most of it lives in their heads. Skills let you pull that playbook out — turning your best prompts, checklists, and review workflows into reusable agent skills your whole team can run. One click, same depth, same rigor, every time. We put together a short tutorial walking through how to build your first one: youtu.be/hMRUhbayn60
