We’re excited to announce Waterfall Modeling - Pulley’s newest product for private equity firms!

Pulley now offers an all-in-one cap table and waterfall platform. Firms can automate waterfall modeling with a single click, eliminating the need for manual calculations and associated spreadsheet errors.

We are testing this with a number of leading PE firms already. Schedule a demo to get access.

Spreadsheet errors add up 

Managing waterfalls in excel exposes private equity firms to compliance risks. Formula errors can produce payout mistakes that hurt a firm's credibility and strain relationships with investors and employees.

Complex deal structures, individual participation thresholds, and capital changes over time make it difficult to maintain waterfall accuracy over the investment holding cycle.
