DcisionAI

The Intelligent Enterprise Decision Layer

Decision infrastructure for the regulated enterprise — where every high-stakes choice becomes provable, auditable, and permanently traceable.

Executive Summary

DcisionAI Infrastructure for the Regulated Enterprise

DcisionAI turns plain-English problems into certified optimal decisions through a six-agent pipeline with mathematical audit gates. It delivers the best possible answer in minutes, with every binding constraint and tradeoff explained in business language and dollar terms.

The Problem

Every regulated organization makes high-stakes decisions under dozens of constraints — without proof of optimality, a defensible audit trail, or the ability to re-run when assumptions change.

Wealth Management & RIA — The Reg BI Trap

74% of wealth management firms already use AI — yet most cannot produce a traceable rationale for the decisions those tools influence. FINRA's 2025 Annual Regulatory Oversight Report explicitly links AI use to Reg BI obligations, and the EU AI Act (enforceable August 2026) classifies investment recommendation AI as high-risk, with fines up to €35M or 7% of global turnover.

Unverifiable AI is not automation. It's liability.

Private Equity — The Allocation Black Box

PE funds make $10M–$100M capital allocation decisions under dozens of constraints — ESG mandates, concentration limits, LP preferred returns, covenant restrictions. The math lives in spreadsheets, the rationale in email threads. ILPA 2026 mandates standardized IRR, TVPI, and MOIC reporting with documented allocation rationale — and 'we used a model' doesn't satisfy LP scrutiny.

When assumptions change, you restart the engagement.

Fund Administration — The Waterfall Black Box

Every PE fund runs a bespoke waterfall — preferred return, GP catch-up, carry split — inside a 500-row Excel model that one analyst built years ago. Manual processes carry a 15–20% error rate, and LPs can be misallocated millions. ILPA 2026 requires documented, auditable carry calculation methodology.

ILPA exam question: "Why did LP A get less than LP B?" The answer can't be a spreadsheet.

Our Solution

DcisionAI: Decision Infrastructure

Describe the problem in plain English. DcisionAI routes it through a six-agent pipeline — Discovery, Research, Planning, Model, Solve, Explain — with mathematical audit gates that verify correctness at every stage before any output reaches the user.

Intent Layer

DcisionAI agents interpret the user's intent, extract every constraint — tax lots, risk profile, ESG mandates, concentration limits — and translate them into a precise mathematical formulation. No ambiguity reaches the solver.

Deterministic Layer

DcisionAI solver agent find the mathematically optimal answer across all constraints simultaneously. Every output carries a Certificate of Optimality — proof that no better solution exists given the constraints. Reg BI audit trail built in.

Explanation Layer

Results return in plain English: which constraints are binding, what each one costs in dollars to relax, and what the tradeoffs are. Ready to present to the client or submit to compliance — in minutes.

Not a recommendation. Not a prediction. A certified optimal decision — with every binding constraint named in business language and every shadow price shown in dollar terms.

Competitive Moat

The Compounding Advantage

PROVE

Certificate of Optimality

Mathematical proof that no better answer exists. Certificate of Optimality for every decision. Binding constraints and shadow prices fully exposed.

EXPLAIN

Shadow Price Analysis

Shadow prices reveal exactly which constraints are costing money. Plain-English explanations, sensitivity analysis and what-if scenarios on demand.

TRACE

The Context Graph

Every decision stored in a Context Graph — searchable, permanent institutional memory for GPs, auditors, and regulatory compliance.

Every DcisionAI run compounds. The context graph grows richer with every problem — encoding rules, precedents, and tradeoffs in a form that makes every subsequent decision faster, more accurate, and auditable. It becomes a living record of how the organization actually decides.

The enterprises that will define the next decade are the ones that close the gap — turning every decision into a provable, auditable, improvable outcome.

Use Cases

Where DcisionAI Works

The same infrastructure applies wherever high-stakes decisions meet hard constraints. Every problem has a mathematically optimal answer. DcisionAI finds it, in minutes.

PE Portfolio Pricing

Optimize pricing across 10–30 portcos under margin, competitive, and covenant constraints. Board-ready output with full audit trail.

Capital Allocation & LP Waterfall

Allocate LP capital across 40+ assets under ESG mandates and concentration limits. Model catch-up provisions, preferred returns, and fund recycling. Every tradeoff in dollar terms.

RIA Portfolio Construction

Per-client rebalancing and tax-loss harvesting under IPS constraints and Reg BI best-interest requirements. Full audit trail per client.

Operational Decisions

Nurse scheduling, fleet routing, capex allocation, surety bond issuance — any constrained optimization problem with a defensible answer requirement.

Launch Wedge

PE/VC + RIA: Non-Discretionary Demand

Two regulated verticals. Three certified implementations already live. Compliance deadlines make adoption non-optional.

1

PE / VC — Solving the Allocation Black Box

The math that lives in spreadsheets now lives in a certified, replayable model. Capital allocation, portfolio construction, LP waterfall, exit routing, and fund recycling — each decision carries a Certificate of Optimality and a full audit trail. ILPA 2026 LP scrutiny answered with a replayable formulation, not a spreadsheet.

DICLAF IV — $95M certified.

2

Fund Administration — Replacing the Waterfall Spreadsheet

DecisionAI's waterfall skill takes LP commitment schedules, realized proceeds, and bespoke waterfall structures (preferred return, catch-up, carry) and produces a fully auditable distribution calculation. Every LP allocation is traceable to the exact binding constraint. ILPA exam question — "Why did LP A get less than LP B?" — answered with provenance, not a 500-row Excel.

Carry consolidation and gross-to-net reconciliation built in.

3

Wealth Management & RIA — Closing the Reg BI Gap

Per-client portfolio construction, rebalancing, and tax-loss harvesting under IPS constraints — with a documented best-interest rationale for every decision. SEC 2026 exam question — "Show me your AI decision process for this client" — answered with a full audit trail, not a model disclaimer.

Market Timing

Why Now

Four forcing functions are converging to create non-discretionary demand for certified AI decisions. The window for first-mover advantage is closing.

EU AI Act · 2026

Credit scoring, capital allocation, risk assessment: audit trail mandatory. Penalty up to €15M or 3% global turnover.

SEC AI Governance · 2026

Model risk management for investment advisors. Registration risk for firms without documented AI decision processes.

$144.6T AUM · Reg BI

AI-assisted allocation requires a demonstrable best-interest process, per client, at SEC examination. Fiduciary duty is enforceable.

Basel IV · Model Risk

Global banks and asset managers face SR 11-7 / Basel IV model validation requirements. Undocumented AI decision models are a material audit finding — and a board-level liability.

Domain Skills

Domain-specific optimization skills (VC, supply chain, tax, etc.) selected by a taxonomy + guardrail router.

Solvers & Validators

HiGHS + SCIP solvers wired so agents run real optimization — not just advise. Certifiable in under 90 seconds.

Context Graph

Persistent graph of problems, skills, agents, and outcomes — enabling audit, traceability, and cross-decision learning.

Product Architecture

Systems That Compound Over Time

DcisionAI doesn't just solve problems — it gets better at solving them. Four interlocking systems ensure every run makes the next one faster, more accurate, and harder to replicate.

The Pipeline

Every problem runs end-to-end: plain-English input through six specialized agents to a certified optimal decision. Board-ready output in minutes.

The Error Recovery Chain

The platform self-heals most failures automatically. When a problem genuinely needs human judgment, HITL surfaces the exact gap — so the user fills in what only they know, and the job continues without restarting.

The Learning Flywheel

Every successful run contributes proven optimization patterns back to the platform's domain skill library. The more DcisionAI runs, the sharper its models become — permanently.

Active Memory

Past decision graphs don't sit idle. They actively steer current jobs — surfacing relevant precedents, binding constraints from prior runs, and domain methodology accumulated from real problems, not hypothetical ones.

Competitive Landscape

Competitive Defensibility

DcisionAI is the only platform combining mathematical proof, natural language input, full audit trail, instant re-optimization, and persistent decision memory — at a fraction of consulting cost.

vs. LLMs: They guess; we prove. · vs. Gurobi: They're the calculator; we're the accounting system. · vs. McKinsey: They deliver a PDF; we deliver re-optimizable infrastructure.
