Not all AI is created equal – The benefits of Large Language Models for Redaction
Over the last few weeks, we’ve discussed the importance of the secure application of redaction and how failure to to do so can lead to some embarrassing oversights. This week, we’re diving into how artificial intelligence (AI) can actually find the text to be redacted – but not just any AI. Let’s unpack this. The […]
How to avoid redaction fails
Properly redacting sensitive information, such as personally identifiable information (PII), ensures compliance with privacy laws, protects reputations, and prevents costly leaks that could derail deals or expose individuals to risk. When done poorly, however, the consequences can be disastrous. Real-world redaction failures The stakes of redaction are high, and recent history is littered with examples […]

Translation for International Bidders
The UK experienced a slow M&A Market in 2023. “This was down to a myriad of much-publicised economic challenges – not least soaring inflation, increased interest rates and geopolitical turbulence – which impacted business confidence.” Despite these challenges, the UK has remained “remarkably robust – if fragile”. In fact, in Bayes Business School’s “M&A Attractiveness […]

Unrivalled Customer Service: Going the Extra Mile!
Customers have more power than ever. The plethora of organisations competing for business means customers have an abundance of choice, should they become dissatisfied with their current providers. And, studies show that only 1 in 26 customers complain about a bad customer experience – the majority simply leave[1]. At Imprima, we are conscious of our […]
LLM-based AI – how accurate is it
In our previous post “Should we blindly trust AI?”, we discussed the main benefit of an accurate AI tool for information extraction. And that is that it saves the user time, and not that it takes the human out of the loop. At Imprima we like to be open about how accurate AI can be. […]
Should we blindly trust AI?
At Imprima, we believe no one should rely wholly on AI without careful thought, regardless of its accuracy. Even the most accurate AI can’t fully see issues the way you can. Why? Simply because the AI does not have the specific context and responsibilities that you have. At the end of the day, you own whatever […]
How Large Language Models change the game for Due Diligence Reviews
Technology deep dive (but don’t be put off if you are a non-technical person, we will keep it high-level) Last week we discussed why information extraction and automated document summaries for Due Diligence is a difficult nut to crack. This week we discuss how it can be done, with AI. But not just any AI. […]
Close, but no cigar: why pseudo AI fails to provide a solution to Due Diligence
Time Pressure and Error Understanding the risk or value of a company by reviewing its documentation is a time-consuming task, particularly when dealing with large volumes of documents or complex information. Time pressures can give cause to oversight. and we’ve seen this in the past with examples such as Caterpillar and Siwei (2010) in which […]

Virtual Data Rooms (VDR) have transformed the way M&A takes place, providing both security and convenience to the transaction. With the now extensive capabilities VDRs offer, from document management, audit trails, detailed user permissions and Q&A functionality, to advanced reporting, and in some VDRs AI-based redaction, the VDR is an essential element of nearly all […]
The rise of automated tools for Due Diligence
The deluge of data in the last decade The massive increase in data over the past decade has significantly impacted the Due Diligence process in M&A. The volume of data that companies now have related to operations, customers, financials, etc. has exploded. This means more data to collect, process, and analyse during Due Diligence. The […]
Secure Redaction
AI redaction needs to be accurate (read more), automatic (read more), and easy to use. However, all these features are worthless if you can’t rely on the redaction to be securely implemented. You need to have the confidence that the people viewing the redacted documents can’t see what has been redacted, unless they are permitted. […]
Customised AI-redaction – making sure it redacts what you want redacted
Last week, we addressed the challenge of achieving perfect accuracy in automated redaction. We emphasised that even with the most advanced technology, perfect recall and precision are not feasible, despite what some vendors may claim. Contrary to the practice of other vendors, we like to be open about our accuracy statistics, and you can read […]
