Daphne provides a data solutions and distribution network for the alternative asset management industry. It offers a software-as-a-service platform that lets asset managers upload fund data once and publish it to a growing network of investors and channel partners, who can access the data in real time. The platform digitizes fund information and automatically distributes it across approved partners, reducing manual data handling and improving accuracy. Unlike general data platforms, Daphne focuses on creating a direct digital connection between managers and their distribution ecosystem, making data sharing faster and more reliable. Its goal is to simplify and speed up data exchange in private markets by building and maintaining a scalable network where managers and partners can publish and consume fund data with ease.
