Revenue model

1. Fund Admin & Additional Services fees: Recurring/contracted service fees paid by Counterparties (investment vehicles, holding vehicles, target companies, lead investors) under separate Service Contracts covering Additional Services (fund accounting, transfer agency, treasury, compliance, tax, etc.). Fees are negotiated per engagement rather than publicly listed.
2. Platform subscription (software access): Subscription-style access to the bunch digital platform and Basic Platform Services; while Account registration and Basic Platform Services access are currently provided free of charge, fees for the platform/services may be adjusted per Terms (Clause 10.1).
3. Professional / expert fund services: Embedded expert services — dedicated key account managers, fund accountants, tax specialists (via agora tax GmbH) and operations experts — sold alongside the software under multi-service Service Contracts with fund managers.

Core offering

bunch provides an AI-native, end-to-end digital platform and operating system for European private market fund managers (venture capital and private equity funds, SPVs, and club deals). The platform combines secure data infrastructure, AI-powered workflows, and embedded expert fund services to digitise the full fund lifecycle, including entity formation, investor onboarding, KYC/AML, capital calls, distributions, fund accounting, reporting, treasury, transfer agency, compliance, and tax.

Product overview

bunch offers a single, integrated AI-native platform (the bunch Digital Platform) for European private markets that combines secure data infrastructure, AI-powered workflows and expert fund services into one regulated system running the full fund lifecycle. The platform is built as a platform-plus-modules architecture: the core bunch Digital Platform hosts modular capabilities — Investor Portal (LP Portal), Transfer Agency, Fund Accounting & Reporting, Treasury, Compliance, Fund Admin Service, Launchpad (entity formation & onboarding), Investor Reporting & Accounting, and Portfolio Monitoring — alongside an add-on tax & accounting service called 'bunch tax' delivered with agora tax GmbH. These modules can be adopted together as a unified fund-operating system or individually across the venture-capital and private-equity fund types that bunch supports (VC funds, PE funds, SPVs, club deals).
