What eFront does better than us — honestly.
eFront's six modular products, backed by BlackRock's scale, cover the full alternative-investment lifecycle — deal flow, portfolio monitoring, risk analytics, and fund accounting — for firms already operating real portfolios. Capital Readiness doesn't manage a portfolio or a fund's books at all. If you're already at that scale, eFront is built for it.
The philosophical difference

Managing the investment lifecycle vs. getting funded to start one.

eFront's assumption: alternative-investment firms need a unified platform spanning fundraising through fund accounting once they're operating at real scale. Capital Readiness's assumption: emerging managers need to get raise-ready and matched to LPs before that scale of operation exists. Use Capital Readiness to raise your first fund, a platform like eFront once you're managing a real portfolio.
