Altaira Strategic Partners has entered a strategic partnership with DeepSee.ai to modernise the infrastructure of the alternative investment ecosystem.
The collaboration aims to integrate DeepSee’s agentic AI solutions into Altaira’s platform, enhancing portfolio intelligence and automating complex workflows.
The initiative seeks to optimise the operational model for private funds, offering a technology-enabled co-sourcing platform.
DeepSee.ai, known for its expertise in agentic AI for financial services, brings a team with experience from institutions like Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan.
The partnership will embed DeepSee’s AI agents into Altaira’s core platform, allowing for advanced automation.
The approach contrasts with traditional outsourcing models by focusing on technology to enable asset managers to grow without increasing internal headcount.
Altaira’s vision, as outlined by its leadership, is to build a future-oriented operating model with a strong emphasis on technology.
The company aims to deliver portfolio intelligence through DeepSee’s AI agents and improve back and middle office processes.
Altaira founding partner and CEO Michael Fastert said: “DeepSee’s financial services DNA, combined with their AI-first approach, gives us an edge in delivering operational alpha across our platform.
“With DeepSee’s agents, portfolio managers will gain more time, deeper insights, and faster decision-making capabilities. That’s how we help our clients get better, not just bigger.
“Altaira will continue what we did at TIG, where the focus was on looking for solutions for our managers. We were never looking to be just a vendor.”
Generative AI is central to Altaira’s strategy, enhancing people, processes, and insights.
In a competitive market for investment dollars, reducing operational costs through automation can significantly impact a fund’s capital-raising capabilities.
With performance and operational excellence under scrutiny, the ability to scale with AI tools is becoming a key differentiator.
DeepSee’s Knowledge Process Automation platform offers Altaira’s clients a streamlined path to AI adoption, automating high-friction workflows efficiently.
The partnership allows investment firms to leverage AI without needing in-house technical teams. By pre-building high-impact use cases, firms can automate key workflows quickly.
Altaira’s platform provides a path for managers to demonstrate innovation and operational agility to investors.
The collaboration aims to help fund managers identify new growth sources and redefine their operating models for a digital-first future, where AI capabilities translate into outcomes.
DeepSee founder and CEO Steve Shillingford said: “The core layer of our technology is trained exclusively on the language of financial services.
“With Altaira, we’re not just deploying software, we’re co-building a new operating system for the industry that helps firms, who lack the resources to support strategic initiatives, scale 10x without losing control.
“There’s a tremendous amount of domain knowledge in financial institutions. We’re not here to replace that. We’re here to help firms unlock it, and let their people focus on what matters most.”
