Lantern’s excited to announce the launch of AI-powered Investment Commentary, a powerful new feature designed to help investment teams generate structured, data-driven commentary in seconds.
Built for investment associates, financial controllers, and partners, the feature acts as a virtual analyst – producing clear, professional commentary that cuts hours of manual drafting from quarterly reporting cycles. Users simply select key performance metrics, choose a period, and let Lantern generate a first draft, ready for refinement and submission.
“Investment commentary is a crucial but time-consuming part of the reporting cycle,” said Iain Robertson, Head of Client Success at Lantern. “With Lantern’s AI Investment Commentary, we’re giving teams a massive head start. It’s fast, intuitive, and keeps analysts focused on insights rather than spreadsheets. Our clients still own the narrative – this just takes the pain out of getting started.”
The launch is part of Lantern’s ongoing mission to use AI and advanced technology to eliminate manual workflows across private markets, offering investment professionals the tools they need to make informed, data-driven decisions with confidence.
