Advisory & consulting

Proposals out the same day.The bench always in view.

Governed autonomy

Autonomy is earned, not switched on.

Every use case starts on a rung you choose. Each approval teaches Hive the boundary. As approvals become routine, the work moves up a rung, within limits you set and can pull back at any time.

AdvisoryHive surfaces and recommends. People act.
Draft for approvalHive prepares the output. A person reviews and sends.
Execute after approvalHive runs the whole process once a person says go.
Autonomous with exceptionsHive runs routine cases itself and routes only the exceptions.

Connect your engagement data

CRM, documents and the bench in one governed workflow, from proposal to delivery.

The work Hive takes over

Use case examples. A sample of the work Hive takes over. The full map is drawn with your team in week one.

Due diligence engagements drown in request lists, data-room Q&A and version chaos.

+
Execute after approval

Hive indexes the data room, maintains the request list and Q&A log, tracks findings by workstream, and drafts the daily status for the engagement lead and the client.

The management presentation and the data room say different things and nobody has time to reconcile them.

+
Draft for approval

Hive cross-checks the data room, the management presentation and the vendor DD against each other, flags every inconsistency with the source pages side by side, and drafts the questions for the next management session.

Commercial due diligence is three weeks of market sizing, expert calls and a model that is never quite tied out.

+
Draft for approval

Hive builds the market model from the desk research and expert calls, tests the target's plan against it, drafts the red-flag report by workstream and keeps every number traced to its source so the partner can defend it in the room.

ReadsData room, expert transcripts, market data
OutputMarket model, red-flag report, CDD draft

Client data lands in twelve spreadsheets and nobody trusts the numbers in the deck.

+
Draft for approval

Every proposal starts from a blank page and a hunt for the last one like it.

+
Draft for approval

Hive drafts the proposal from the brief, pulls the right case studies and team bios, applies the firm's rates and structure, and hands the partner a version that only needs their voice.

Leads, contacts and follow-ups fall through the gaps between events, inboxes and HubSpot.

+
Draft for approval

Hive turns email threads, meeting invites, event badge scans and intros into clean HubSpot records, dedupes against what's there, drafts post-meeting and post-event follow-ups in the partner's voice, and nudges when a proposal has gone quiet.

OutputCRM records, follow-up drafts, pipeline digest

Nobody can find the deck, the model or the person who did it last time.

+
Advisory

Hive keeps an operating memory across engagements: who worked on what, which frameworks were used, what the client said. Ask in Teams, get the answer with the source.

Scope creep is only spotted once the engagement is underwater.

Thirty expert interviews and two hundred sources, and the synthesis is a weekend.
