The Evolution
Old Guard vs. New Guard
Every year, over $100B worth of opportunities fail to transact. We're changing that by bridging Wall Street relationships with AI-native technology.
The Old Guard
- 5-10% broker fees eating into returns
- 30-90 days just to prepare a deal
- 70%+ deal flow from personal networks
- Fragmented, outdated processes
- Limited visibility and quality control
The New Guard
- Direct access—no middlemen
- AI-powered matching in days, not months
- Curated, verified venture pipeline
- Standardized diligence workflows
- Transparent, data-driven decisions
HCG bridges both worlds: We leverage AI technology for efficiency while maintaining relationship-based trust that drives lasting partnerships.
