“AltExchange has developed one of the most advanced document retrieval solutions that’s connected to sophisticated mapping, routing technology and LLM (Large Language Model) based document extraction,” said Lawrence Calcano, Chairman and CEO of iCapital. “This acquisition complements the investments we are making in our internal R&D to further enhance our data management capabilities.

AltExchange’s AdvisorVue platform empowers financial advisors by aggregating clients’ portfolios, standardizing data and documents, and automating reporting processes. For asset managers, AltExchange’s Digital Custodian Platform (DCP) provides a powerful tool to standardize post-investment reporting data, automate investor reporting, and facilitate seamless integration with advisors’ systems.
“We built an intuitive advisor-facing platform to manage, monitor, and report on alternative investments, offering comprehensive tools for document management, advanced alerts, and streamlined tax workflows,” said Kareem Hamady, CEO of AltExchange, who will be joining iCapital as part of the acquisition. “We are thrilled to join iCapital and offer our collective clients automated data aggregation, reporting, and direct integrations with leading asset and wealth management systems, providing a seamless experience for advisors and their clients.”
