Standard Metrics has launched AI Analyst, an intelligent agent that accesses and analyzes data across the entire Standard Metrics platform to deliver fast, portfolio-level insights for venture capital and private equity firms. Users can now ask natural language questions about their full portfolio and receive clear, actionable answers in seconds, eliminating manual aggregation and enabling more efficient decision-making.

The new AI Analyst represents a direct evolution from Standard Metrics' earlier AI-powered tool, which focused on single portfolio companies. User interactions with that version revealed a strong preference for portfolio-level insights, including trend identification, company comparisons, and contextual benchmarking—all integrated seamlessly into daily workflows.
"Customers were using the early version constantly, but they kept asking broader questions," said John Melas-Kyriazi, CEO at Standard Metrics. "They wanted to understand trends across their full portfolio, compare companies in context, and do it all without leaving our platform. This launch is a direct response to that feedback."
By leveraging real-time, firm-specific data such as financial metrics and qualitative observations, the AI Analyst reduces time spent on manual processes while ensuring accuracy and relevance. It supports complex queries that span multiple companies, helping investors spot patterns, assess performance variances, and prepare reports more efficiently.
This capability positions Standard Metrics as a leader in embedding AI directly into investor workflows, enhancing speed and depth of analysis without compromising data security or requiring external tools.
Over the coming year, Standard Metrics plans to broaden the AI Analyst's scope with support for more data types and features like automated chart generation to further accelerate insights and visualization.
