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 May 2026 hiring shows demand for AI-enabled PE diligence engagements.
- The June 2026 Blackwood profile says Riplo delivers first views in three to five days.
- Riplo's website claims institutions managing over $400 billion trust its AI advisory.
What critics are saying
- Riplo's August 2026 website pivot from consulting OS to PE advisory signals strategy instability.
- McKinsey, BCG, and Big Four diligence teams can package similar AI workflows by 2027.
- If PE clients prefer internal analysts plus OpenAI tools, Riplo becomes a services-heavy niche vendor.
What makes Riplo unique
- Riplo's March 2026 launch combined consulting workflows with traceable AI agents, not chatbots.
- Founders Tobias Haefele, Oliver Scott, and Zack Zornitta bring QuantumBlack, McKinsey, and Hg experience.
- Riplo now targets PE diligence, embedding software inside live engagements through forward-deployed consultants.
