LP reporting software: investor reports from your own data
LP reporting software turns portfolio company results, fund data and valuations into the quarterly report investors receive. The useful kind drafts the report from your own data rather than giving you a nicer template to fill in, so the deal team reviews and adds judgment instead of spending days assembling numbers.

Who this is for
Private equity firms reporting to LPs
CFOs, investor relations leads and deal teams at private equity firms, especially lean firms without a large investor relations function.
The challenge
The numbers are easy, assembling them is not
Every quarter, someone collects results from each portfolio company, reconciles them with the fund administrator, updates valuations, writes the narrative and formats it for LPs. The data exists in several places; the work is pulling it together, checking it and explaining it.
It lands on the same few people every quarter, usually alongside a live deal.
What good looks like
What a good LP report delivers
- Numbers that tie to the fund administrator and the portfolio companies.
- A clear narrative for each company: what happened and what comes next.
- Consistent format from quarter to quarter.
- A source behind every figure, so questions are answered quickly.
- Delivered on time, without pulling the deal team off deals.
Where the manual way breaks
Each quarter starts from scratch
Templates help with layout but not with gathering. Each quarter the team re-collects the same data, re-checks the same reconciliations and rewrites the same sections. LP questions after the report goes out send everyone back into the spreadsheets to find where a number came from. And because the work lands on the people who also run deals, the report competes with live transactions for their attention every single quarter.
