How we work
There is no software to buy and nothing to learn. Getting started is as easy as instructing a lawyer: you give us access to the documents and we go to work. To prove our worth, we happily double-run a live deal alongside your current process. You keep working exactly the way you are used to - no new tool, no change management, just the results.
The Duely Tandem
With the state of technology today, a big part of the knowledge work can be picked up by AI. We built our engine to excel at exactly that work. In M&A, however, a crucial part of the work is customising exactly to the needs of the client, managing the project, owning the responsibility and freeing up your time - human work that will always lie with us humans.
For all the work that Duely delivers, both a legal expert and an AI engineer are involved. They work together in tandem: the AI engineer controls the AI-driven parts of the delivery, while the legal expert focuses on optimally performing the human-led parts of the work.
The result: a tailored, better, cheaper, more efficient service.
We say this, and we actually back it up. To experience it for yourself, reach out for a double run on your next deal.
Get in contactFrom documents to deliverable
We get access to the relevant documents and process them securely through the Duely API to extract the relevant metadata and produce insights. From that Duely-enriched data room, we move into our Duely agentic workspace, where the tandem goes to work building the eventual client deliverable.

From A to Z
One tandem across the entire deal - from single acquisitions to roll-ups, add-ons and buy-and-build programmes. Pick and choose where you leverage us: engage us for a single step, or let us own the whole journey, on the buy-side or the sell-side.
Step 01
Sell-sideWe build or clean up the data room: a tailored index, consistent naming across every document, a gap analysis against the request list and a legal sanity check - before anyone else looks.
Step 02
Sell-sideBuy-sideFull buy-side or vendor due diligence across all workstreams, with the information request list and Q&A run alongside - single targets as well as roll-ups, add-ons and buy-and-build programmes. Red flags, zoom-in memos and a key findings report.
Step 03
Sell-sideBuy-sideThe diligence flows straight into the documents. SPA, APA, carve-outs and cross-border mergers: we draft, review and support the negotiation, so findings become protections.
Step 04
Sell-sideBuy-sideWe stay on the deal through signing: closing checklists, conditions precedent, pre-closing obligations - until the deal is actually done.
Step 05
Buy-sidePost-closing action points, corporate housekeeping and standing arrangements for recurring work - including the integration of add-on acquisitions. We stay useful after the ink dries.
