About AI PE Playbook

AI PE Playbook is created by Adrian Scott.

It is the practical reference for how artificial intelligence is reshaping private equity: what firms are actually doing, with evidence; where the real opportunities are; and the tools, vendors, and talent that make it happen.

We are believers in private equity. PE is a force for good. It builds and revitalizes companies, creates and sustains jobs, and puts patient capital to work in the real economy. And we think bringing artificial intelligence into private equity is a force for good too. Better returns, faster processes, higher capital turns, and more value created with the same, or less, capital.

The site serves the whole PE ecosystem. The firms deploying AI, the limited partners allocating to them, the vendors helping, and the talent building the capability. We report what is really happening, in a way that is useful to the people making the decisions.

From time to time, when it is a great fit, we also do AI implementation work for firms, across portfolio companies and at the management-company level.
