Gradient CIO is an investment intelligence and due diligence platform for institutional allocators such as pensions, endowments, foundations, family offices and OCIOs. It brings manager research, operational due diligence and portfolio-level insight into one place, built on governed, source-cited data. Its diligence tools cover operational profiles drawn from SEC Form ADV filings, checks of a manager's DDQ answers against regulatory filings, an auditable findings ledger, ongoing monitoring alerts, a prioritized queue of managers that need attention, and one-click diligence briefs and investment committee memos. On the portfolio side, it provides capital market assumptions with a consensus check, macro conditions and signals, market positioning data from CFTC futures and hedge fund 13F crowding, peer allocation disclosures, 13F portfolio reviews, public equity filings and fundamentals, regional research and watchlist change tracking. The goal is to give allocator teams faster, evidence-backed decisions without stitching together separate tools.
