The gruntwork goes.
The banking stays.

Starch runs the RFPs, due diligence, coverage follow-through and deal admin your team still does by hand, so the week goes back to clients.

Built by bankers, for bankers Goldman Sachs

Where the week actually goes

Before Starch

  • Watching the portals for what posted
  • The client conversation
  • Hunting the drives for what we did last time
  • First drafts of everything
  • Re-keying the same number into a third file
  • Structuring the deal
  • Making it look like the house format
  • Naming and filing what arrived
  • Asking again for the document you asked for
  • Judgment on the number
  • Chasing who owes what
  • Finding a time that works for six calendars
  • Checking the numbers by hand
  • Reading the room
  • Writing the status update
  • Logging it so the system knows

Eliminate repetitive manual work with StarchSo you can focus on the judgment and relationships that matter

How we work

You change nothing.
It just starts working.

Starch arrives inside the systems your desk already trusts, in a private tenant your data never leaves. No migration, no retraining, no long deployment.

Tailored to your desk

A banker who has done the work and an engineer who builds it, staying until it runs.

Private by default

Your own tenant, in your cloud or ours. Nothing is pooled, nothing trains a model.

Fits the systems you run

SharePoint, Outlook, Teams, the CRM, the data room. They stay the systems of record.

Human-led at every decision

Agents prepare and check. Anything client-facing waits for a named person.

Reliable, down to the source

Numbers come from the tool your firm validated. Conflicts block rather than resolve.

Operated for you

We learn your workflow, then configure and maintain it for your team.

Questions

Before you ask.

You will build the same thing for our competitor, won't you?

Yes, we may work with other firms in your sector, and we would rather say so than let you find out later.

What they get is not what you get. The build runs on your precedent and your approval standards, so two groups covering the same sector diverge from day one, and yours keeps diverging as it learns from your engagements.

How is this different from a horizontal finance AI platform?

Horizontal finance AI platforms can produce real financial work across many use cases. Starch starts with a named desk workflow and owns its configuration, integrations, review path and upkeep.

The distinction is operating responsibility. The workflow is tailored to your precedent and standards, and the Workspace underneath runs it. The named comparison, sources checked, is on the comparison pages.

What does forward deployed actually mean?

A banker and an engineer assigned as a pair. The banker knows where the artifact goes wrong; the engineer builds against that, not a spec.

They stay until it runs on your own documents, which is where deployments stall.

Where does our data live, and does it train a model?

Single-tenant deployment, in your cloud or ours. Your data is never pooled with another firm's, and it is never used to train a model.

Access is scoped per person and per team, with an exportable audit trail.

Who approves what the agents produce?

Your team, always. Agents do the preparation and surface it for review. Nothing reaches a client, an issuer, or a regulator without a named person approving it.

Once routed for approval an artifact is read-only, so what is approved is what gets sent.

Do we have to replace the systems the desk runs on?

No, and we would rather you didn't. SharePoint, Outlook, Teams, the CRM, the data room, and the desk's own modelling software stay the systems of record.

That boundary is deliberate: client-facing numbers should come from the tool your firm validated.

Our desk isn't one of the three. Can you still help?

Sometimes. The question we ask is whether your work reuses the same evidence graph and approval engine, or whether it needs a new one built from scratch.

If it is close, we can help quickly. If not, we will say so.

Get there before the desk across the street does.
