Arcanis Launches AI Platform to Streamline VC Deep Decision Research

DOVER, Del., Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Arcanis (arcanis.com) today announced its launch as an AI-powered "deep decision research" solution for growth and late-stage VC markets, adding a transparent AI trust layer through meeting standardized criteria for completeness, systematics, transparency, and clarity of output.

VC is often characterized by incomplete, fragmented, or incorrect data. Professionals spend more time cleaning than analyzing. Surveys show data scientists dedicate nearly 60% of their time to data preparation, and other data professionals dedicate about 40%. In this environment, the asymmetry of information rewards those with more reliable insights. Both human judgment and AI introduce bias, and AI can amplify that bias at scale. Together with the extreme cognitive complexity of human decision-making and uncertainty in investment decisions, this has a dramatic impact on capital efficiency and human prosperity. The investors' trust gap already developed in private markets creates a serious regulatory concern, and the stark contrast between the rapid growth of IT, AI, and information availability, and the obscure, Byzantine nature of private equity investments.

Arcanis' solution equips investors with a decision-ready, interactive outcome that bridges the gap between research and decision, based on bias-free, standardized, and verifiable research, as well as the most comprehensive and stable data, supported by data verification and recovery methods utilizing OSINT techniques and a proprietary VC knowledge base. The solution is agnostic of investment philosophy or assumptions, customizable to the investor's own approach.

"Information gaps and asymmetry create capital inefficiencies and illiquidity in VC. Our mission is to introduce standards and tools that will change the game using AI and information abundance the right way," said Alex Prokofyev, CEO and Founder of Arcanis. "AI trust layers will soon be essential safeguards in every industry where humans seek to maintain control. For capital investments, we are taking a significant step in this direction with our open Systematic Investment Intelligence framework, making Arcanis' research solution the first example of an AI trust layer for growth and late-stage VC."

Practical advantages for AMs, LPs, family offices, GPs:

• Decision-ready company research based on pre-NDA or NDA data

• Fair price benchmarking for secondary trade
