F2 launches Audit Mode for traceable AI-generated analysis in private markets after $10M seed

F2, an AI platform for private markets, has launched Audit Mode, making AI-generated financial analysis fully traceable and verifiable. The feature writes every calculation into a live, source-linked Excel-native Databook, allowing deal teams to audit and defend their analysis during investment committee reviews. Since launching in September with a $10 million oversubscribed seed round backed by NFX, Left Lane Capital and Y Combinator, F2 has experienced seven-fold month-over-month growth in platform usage and 60-fold ARR growth. The platform serves thousands of professionals across more than 100 enterprise firms. Audit Mode enables users to trace any value to its original source file, sheet and cell, whilst maintaining live inspection of formulas and dependencies.

Introducing F2 2.0: The Next Generation of Financial Intelligence

Introducing F2 2.0: the next generation of financial intelligence. CTO of F2 (Formerly Arc Intelligence) F2 is excited to introduce F2 2.0, the next generation of its financial intelligence platform. Built on insights from thousands of deals, this release advances the capabilities that make F2 unique: the only financial AI platform capable of true, complex, audit-ready analysis. Version 2.0 introduces new levels of accuracy and collaboration, powered by an enhanced financial analysis agent and a fully enterprise-grade environment built for private markets investors. Here's what's new in F2 2.0: * Advanced Excel Intelligence to elevate your team's analytical horsepower * Full-context analysis to evaluate opportunities with firm history and market comps * Audit Mode for complete visibility into every number and claim * Enhanced AutoReports to produce IC-ready materials at record speed * Seamless collaboration to align deal teams from Analyst to MD in one secure, version-controlled workspace Together, these capabilities eliminate the trade-off between speed and rigor, helping firms deploy capital faster, with greater conviction and complete transparency into every decision. AI that truly excels at Excel. F2 has spent two years obsessing over one thing: financial analysis. While others chased generic AI capabilities focused on search and summarization, F2 tackled the hardest and most valuable problem in finance: building AI capable of truly understanding complex financial models. That focus led F2 to build F2's Excel Intelligence - an agentic system designed for the models investors rely on: multi-sheet, 20-megabyte files with intricate links and formulas that most AI systems can't even open. It handles these complex models with precision, capturing every formula, relationship, and dependency in full detail. Beyond interpretation, it performs deep analytical work: running customer cube analyses, testing sensitivities, benchmarking valuations across deals, and surfacing key drivers of performance - all through natural language. F2 doesn't just automate financial modeling, it elevates it. It's like giving your team a second set of eyes that understands the logic behind every formula and never loses track of where a number came from. Analyze every deal in full context. For private markets investors, context is everything. Yet most deal teams still evaluate opportunities in isolation, often disconnected from firm history or market reality. F2's full-context analysis changes that. It brings together internal data, past transactions, and external benchmarks to give every decision a complete, connected view. Teams can instantly see how a new deal compares to historical structures, portfolio outcomes, and market benchmarks, all without leaving the platform. By grounding analysis in both firm and market context, F2 helps investors build conviction faster, with greater clarity into risk and opportunity. Enterprise-Ready, audit-tight. F2 brings that analytical power into a fully enterprise-grade environment built for the way deal teams actually work. Every number, assumption, and output is traceable back to its source, giving teams complete visibility and confidence in their analysis. Reports that once took hours to assemble can now be produced in minutes - - polished, consistent, and ready for IC review. Collaboration happens securely within a single workspace, where teams can work across roles with controlled permissions, version history, and a clear audit trail of every change. From a quick valuation check to a 50-page IC memo, every step of the process can be verified, reproduced, and shared confidently across the firm. No black boxes. Just clarity, control, and confidence. Designing ai-first workflows. Deal teams are under more pressure than ever - more data to review, more diligence to run, and less time to reach conviction. The firms that will thrive are those that redesign their workflows for an AI-first world, where technology doesn't replace expertise but amplifies it. F2 gives teams that edge. By automating analysis, it frees teams to focus on what truly drives returns: judgment, pattern recognition, and relationship building. Work that once took days now happens in hours, with every step fully transparent and auditable. For firms, that means greater deal velocity, stronger conviction at every stage, and a scalable way to compound institutional knowledge over time. This isn't about replacing people. It's about turning today's manual workflows into intelligent systems, where humans and agents work side by side, each focused on what they do best. The next era of dealmaking. Private markets investing has always been about turning insight into conviction. F2 helps deal teams go from data room to decision with unmatched speed, accuracy, and transparency.
