Søren Biltoft-Knudsen is Co-Founder and President at DiligenceSquared, an AI-powered platform that automates commercial due diligence for private equity firms at a fraction of traditional consulting costs.

Søren was a Principal at BCG's Private Equity practice in New York for seven years, where he led 40+ commercial due diligence projects for major PE, growth equity, and hedge funds. He holds a Master of Science in Finance and Strategic Management from Copenhagen Business School.

Søren brings deep expertise in the due diligence workflows that private equity firms rely on for billion-dollar deals. His experience selling these reports at BCG gives him unique insight into what investors need and how AI can deliver faster, more auditable results.

DiligenceSquared raised a $5 million seed round led by Damir Becirovic of Relentless and was part of Y Combinator's Fall 2025 cohort. Since launching in October 2025, the company has completed projects for several of the world's largest PE firms and mid-market funds.

DiligenceSquared reduces the cost of market due diligence from $500,000-$1 million to just $50,000 by using AI voice agents to conduct expert interviews. The company serves clients with over $2.4 trillion in combined assets under management, democratizing institutional-grade research previously reserved for only the largest deals.
