Investor Intelligence
Investor intelligence is actionable, decision-ready information about investors, including mandate signals, decision chains, preferences, timing, and verified contacts.
Allocator relevance: Investor intelligence is what turns a directory into outcomes—allocators and managers use it to target, diligence, and engage efficiently.
Expanded Definition
Investor intelligence goes beyond “who they are.” It includes what they invest in, how they decide, who influences approvals, what changes over time, and how reachable the decision pathway is. In private markets, intelligence must be freshness-aware because roles and preferences shift rapidly.
For platforms like Altss, investor intelligence is the product layer that sits on top of data coverage: evidence, verification, and workflow context.
Decision Authority & Governance
Governance determines what can be asserted as verified vs inferred, how change detection triggers updates, and how corrections are handled. Decision authority mapping is core: intelligence without routing is incomplete.
Common Misconceptions
- Investor intelligence is just contact data.
- AUM and geography are enough to target.
- Intelligence can be static and still be useful.
Key Takeaways
- Intelligence = data + evidence + workflow context.
- Freshness and verification determine usability.
- Decision-chain mapping is the highest-leverage component.
