Riplo

Agentic operating system for consulting workflows

Overview

Riplo is building an agentic operating system for the consulting sector, delivering a web platform with a PowerPoint plugin that lets human consultants work with AI agents in a single workspace. AI agents handle research synthesis, analysis, and drafting of slides and deliverables, while keeping traceability of all outputs and sources. The system replaces manual PowerPoint and Excel workflows by letting consultants curate AI-generated outputs within the workspace, rather than creating from scratch. The goal is to help consulting firms deliver faster projects with higher margins, supported by enterprise-grade security and scalable engineering.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Riplo’s Sep. 24, 2026 whitepaper signals growing marketing momentum and buyer credibility.
  • Riplo’s Jul. 29, 2026 PEI feature expands distribution into private-equity decision-makers.
  • Riplo’s Sep. 21, 2026 hiring page shows expansion across engineering, advisory, and GTM.

What critics are saying

  • Riplo’s 1–10 person team faces incumbents like McKinsey, BCG, and OpenAI by 2027.
  • A PE-focused advisory pivot narrows Riplo’s market and traps it in services margins.
  • One failed diligence deliverable can destroy trust, referrals, and the company’s credibility entirely.

What makes Riplo unique

  • Cherry Ventures’ Sep. 21, 2026 profile shows Riplo’s proprietary agentic OS in live engagements.
  • Riplo’s Sep. 28, 2026 site embeds agents inside PE diligence, not standalone chat.
  • Founders Tobias Haefele, Oliver Scott, and Zack Zornitta combine McKinsey, Hg, and DeepMind experience.
