Syfter enables private equity firms to accumulate a rich and proprietary data lake, but more importantly it’s built to allow machine learning to be applied on that data in a performant and scaleable architecture.
The ML models we build with our private equity clients are fully owned by them, making the output of Syfter unique to each firm.

Ingestion Engine
Syfter includes a flexible, highly scalable, ingestion engine that allows us to easily ingest content from both internal and external data sources.
Company Modelling
Using content from company websites, Syfter builds a model of each company, extracting keywords and concepts to help the platform get a deep understanding of each company. It also classifies the company into a sector.
Company Matching
Using the company models, Syfter is able to match company mentions within third-party sources. It does this via fuzzy matching and by analysing terminology used within an article and how related it is to the target company.
News Signal Classification
Using natural language processing, Syfter is able to understand the subject of a news article and extracts signals such as board changes, acquisitions, product launches, and much more
News and Blog Extraction
Alongside extracting concepts and keywords, Syfter detects news articles, blog posts and press releases that have been published on company websites and continuously ingests them into your campaign.
Daily Emails
Syfter allows you to issue a daily summary email to showcase the highlights of a campaign output in the previous 24 hours. This can be configured to a range of users across the company.

Syfter is continuously improving with new data connectors, refined machine learning models and new core features.
Syfter is comprised of a number of technologies that solve the challenges that private equity firms face around discovering and monitoring private companies at scale.
