Their own description (from YC)

Snowstone helps private equity firms drive operational value creation with AI. It's like a performance improvement engagement from a top consulting firm, but built from the company's own data, delivered in one week, and with every finding traced to its source. Today, private equity firms rely on consultants to find where portfolio companies can improve. That work depends on interviews and data requests, so the conclusions are secondhand, biased by internal politics and hard to check. Snowstone goes straight to the source data. It analyzes how a portfolio company actually operates and identifies automation potential, duplicated work, process bottlenecks and key-person risk, each quantified by its EBITDA impact.
