Datasite Acquires Valu8 to Further Accelerate Global, AI-Driven Deal Sourcing and Execution
The AI tool you bought last year is still sitting there. Unused. Quietly draining $200/month. And nobody's talking about why.
You're not tech-stupid. You made a reasonable bet and got burned by overs
The AI tool you bought last year is still sitting there. Unused. Quietly draining $200/month. And nobody's talking about why.
You're not tech-stupid. You made a reasonable bet and got burned by overselling. That's not on you — that's an industry problem. Most AI vendors sell the dream, then disappear after onboarding.
Here's what's interesting about Datasite acquiring Valu8 this week. Two companies doing one thing very specifically — AI for deal sourcing in private markets. Not AI for everything. AI for one workflow, done deeply.
That's the pattern worth noticing. The AI implementations actually delivering ROI aren't the all-in-one platforms. They're narrow tools solving one expensive problem inside an existing process. No system overhaul required.
The businesses winning with AI right now identified their single most painful, repetitive task — the one costing them 10+ hours a week — and found a tool built specifically for that problem. Not a Swiss Army knife. A scalpel.
This week, write down the one task your team does repeatedly that requires judgment but feels like busywork. That's your starting point. Not a platform. Not a transformation. One problem, one solution.
What's the one workflow in your business you wish you could hand off tomorrow?
