The smart host vs the forensic auditor

Imprima The smart host

Imprima's "Smart Index" and "Smart Redaction" are dream tools for the sell-side. They automatically categorise uploaded files and redact PII to ensure the data room is clean, compliant, and ready for guests. It is an operational tool designed to make the process smooth.

Colabra The forensic auditor

Colabra's goal is not a smooth process; it is a safe investment. We don't just categorise the files; we cross-examine them. We map the evidence against your buy-side checklist to reveal what is missing, inconsistent, or risky—the "mess" that a clean index tries to hide.

Why "smart" means different things to buyers and sellers

Redaction vs discovery

Imprima's AI is excellent at finding names and addresses so the seller can hide them (redaction). Colabra's AI is built to find the entities you need to know about. We extract company names not to hide them, but to screen them against sanctions, PEP, and litigation databases.

Summaries vs citations

Imprima's "Smart Summaries" generate quick overviews of documents to help users browse faster. Colabra's Flag lens identifies specific liabilities (like a missing "Change of Control" waiver) and links them to the exact clause. We don't give you a summary; we give you the evidence.

Neutrality

Imprima is the host. If you use the AI tools built into the VDR, you are working in the seller's environment. Colabra is your private, portable workspace. You bring your own playbook and your own intelligence layer, ensuring your analysis remains confidential and consistent across every deal you do.
