About
Zarna is private equity’s first AI associate class.
Our agents plug directly into your firm’s data and work like a deal team that never sleeps. Zarna’s agents analyze CIMs, build LBOs, update CRMs, draft IC memos, & act based on decades of proprietary firm knowledge.
The result: investors spend less time buried in decks and spreadsheets, and more time on judgment, relationships, and winning deals.
