Argus Technologies reported that Madison Dearborn Capital Partners IX filed five parallel vehicles for a $3B raise.

𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀: Sponsors pitch IRR. Investors and advisors buy risk management. Sponsors who cannot communicate risk leaving money on the table. Argus bridges the gap. Argus covers the full cycle of private market investing on one platform, built on a growing corpus of structured, comparable deal data. Five stages. 𝟭. 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴: Every new SEC filing is ingested, extracted, enriched, and scored, so new deals surface the day they become public instead of the week they land in your inbox. 𝟮. 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: Upload the documents from any private deal or fund. Argus extracts the terms, benchmarks them against comparable deals, and shows what is market. Deals are benchmarked on the completeness of their disclosures too, so you can see the gaps and know exactly what to ask the sponsor. 𝟯. 𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: An expert lens on top of frontier models. Is a 5% cap rate reasonable for that market? Does 3 to 5% rent growth overstate the IRR? We attach lessons from experienced investors and fund managers to specific deal types, with the sourcing shown, so you can pressure-test the assumptions behind a number rather than take it at face value. 𝟰. 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: One financial statement for all your private investments. Upload a quarterly update and the data extracts and populates in one click. Financials, funding rounds, valuations, forward cashflows for capital planning, and IRR that reflects actual timing. 𝟱. 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗼 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Public and private holdings analyzed together. We look through your fund holdings to show real exposure to sectors and risk factors like real estate and interest rates, so allocation decisions are made on the whole portfolio instead of the visible half.
