What is DDQ automation software?

DDQ automation software completes due diligence questionnaires automatically instead of by hand. AlternativeSoft reads your existing documents and prior answers, drafts responses to each question, cites its sources and flags anything that needs review - so analysts approve answers rather than writing them from scratch.

  • AI DDQ completion: answers drafted from your document library and past responses.
  • Cited answers: every response links to its source for fast review.
  • Gap flagging: missing or inconsistent answers are surfaced automatically.
  • Reusable library: approved answers are stored and reused across questionnaires.

How do you automate due diligence questionnaires?

To automate due diligence questionnaires, AlternativeSoft ingests your documents and answer history, matches each question to the best supporting evidence, then drafts a cited response for an analyst to approve or edit. The result is a completed DDQ in minutes, with consistency and an audit trail across every submission.

  • Upload once: documents and prior DDQs become a reusable knowledge base.
  • Auto-draft: AI maps each question to the right evidence and writes the answer.
  • Review & approve: analysts confirm answers rather than typing them.
  • Reuse: the next questionnaire is faster as the answer library grows.

New: AlternativeSoft MCP in AlternativeSoft Cloud

Pair DDQ automation with your AI assistant: AlternativeSoft MCP for due diligence questionnaires

A completed questionnaire answers the qualitative questions. The quantitative ones, how the fund has actually performed, how it ranks against its peers and how it behaves in a drawdown, still need the analytics engine. AlternativeSoft MCP, now available with AlternativeSoft Cloud, lets you ask for those numbers from Claude, ChatGPT or Microsoft 365 Copilot in plain language while the DDQ is open. Every figure is computed on your own AlternativeSoft data, so the quantitative context sits beside the questionnaire answers without a single export.

“While I review this manager’s DDQ, give me its three-year return, volatility, Sharpe and maximum drawdown against its peer group.”

What comes back: The statistics and the peer rank, computed live, so the DDQ reviewer sees the quantitative picture next to the answers.

“Does the performance this manager describes in the questionnaire match the track record in our database?”

What comes back: The fund’s actual statistics for the period claimed, so the reviewer can check the narrative against the numbers.

“Write a two-paragraph summary of this fund’s risk profile I can attach to the completed DDQ for the committee.”

What comes back: Report-ready prose grounded in the real figures from the platform, with no invented numbers.

Can I use AlternativeSoft MCP for operational due diligence?

Yes, for the quantitative side of the review. AlternativeSoft MCP lets Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft 365 Copilot or any MCP-ready assistant ask the AlternativeSoft engine for a manager’s return, risk, drawdown, peer rank, stress test and factor exposure in plain language, computed on your own data. It complements the DDQ and document review in the Cloud ODD platform rather than replacing them.

Is AlternativeSoft MCP included in the cloud offering?

AlternativeSoft MCP is available with AlternativeSoft Cloud and with the desktop platform. It is read-only, runs either server-hosted for web assistants or locally for desktop tools, and requires the REST API to be enabled and an MCP licence confirmed by support. Setup usually takes under an hour.
