alt.ai announces CloneM&A, an LLM-powered M&A matching system
Instantly achieves ideal M&A matching through virtual interviews between corporate clones

alt is engaged in the research and development of matching services that apply AI cloning technology, and is the developer of CloneM&A and the human resources matching system CloneHR.
The Relo Group sought to create new businesses that would generate synergies with its existing businesses. The company that was selected for transfer through alt's CloneM&A was an ideal partner in the untapped real estate BPO field.
Although the transferring company had not initially considered Relo Group as a potential partner, CloneM&A demonstrated clear business synergies between the two companies, and the company's desired image of a buyer matched Relo Group. As a result, the transferring company came to highly rate Relo Group as a partner with a strong potential for innovation, and a match that satisfied both parties was achieved in an unprecedentedly short period of time.
CloneM&A was able to deeply understand the needs of both companies and instantly find the most suitable partner, ultimately facilitating an acquisition in just five months. The successful sale is proof of the innovative nature of CloneM&A and the world's first merger completed using AI clone technology.
■About CloneM&A
CloneM&A is an AI matching system that uses a large language model to generate a clone of the seller company and have it virtually meet with thousands of buyer company clones in a database. CloneM&A calculates matching scores and synergies with all potential buyer companies, searching for the optimal candidate.
CloneM&A utilizes alt's proven clone generation technology to thoroughly learn all of a company’s data, including voice recordings and business documents. This helps it achieve a significantly higher average matching accuracy than conventional keyword matching, which is based on personal preference. In tests, the service was highly evaluated for its high level of confidentiality in the matching process and its ability to provide a satisfactory search for buyer companies from the early stages of M&A consideration. Moreover, CloneM&A’s results (application rate, matching rate, and closing rate) have far exceeded the M&A industry average. CloneM&A is scheduled for public release in late 2024.
