Old Well Labs (OWL) provides a cloud-based software platform for institutional capital allocators and fund managers. It uses AI and web-scraped data to build detailed profiles of more than 10,000 investment firms and to surface information on over 15,000 funds. The platform helps allocators source funds, monitor performance, and track team changes, while helping fund managers identify interested investors and monitor allocator activity. Service providers can also find new fund-manager clients by watching which funds are raising capital or expanding teams. The product runs as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) with data gathered from thousands of sources across 60+ countries, and it delivers alerts and insights to users. OWL’s goal is to simplify investment due diligence and relationship-building by giving clients timely, organized, and actionable intelligence on the global fund-management ecosystem.
