BATONZ Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CEO: Yuichi Kamise; hereinafter "Batonz"), operator of the M&A and business succession support platform "BATONZ," began offering a new feature, "AI Overview Document" (beta version), for M&A professionals in April 2026. This feature is a service that utilizes generative AI to automatically generate a draft of a company overview document simply by reading multiple materials.
Background
Professionals providing M&A support need to read and interpret massive volumes of materials, often spanning dozens of pages submitted by sellers, organize the information, and create a company overview document. Conventionally, this task took about two weeks to a month, including the exchange of materials, and several days just for the actual creation work. At Batonz, through the utilization of know-how accumulated by the in-house development team and repeated trial and error, we have independently developed a system that creates a draft in a short time.
Overview of the New Feature
Simply by dragging and dropping multiple materials such as PDFs to upload them, a draft of a company overview document is created in as little as 3 minutes.
- Input possible in multiple formats
In addition to Office files such as PDF, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, input is possible in various data formats such as audio/video recording data of interviews with sellers and URLs of corporate websites. It integrates various formats of information and smoothly drops them into the company overview document. Specifically, data such as financial statements and company introduction materials can be read.
- Extraction and automatic generation of qualitative information such as strengths
Rather than simply extracting and organizing data from materials, the AI accurately verbalizes essential elements for appealing to buyers, such as the project's unique selling points and assumed FAQs, and generates them in persuasive writing. Furthermore, it goes beyond text generation to support the creation of a visually communicative company overview document draft by accommodating image embedding and chart creation.
- Visualization of missing information and supplementation support
The AI analyzes existing materials to check information comprehensiveness and identifies missing materials toward the creation of a highly accurate company overview document. In addition, it automatically generates a hearing sheet to cover the remaining information, supporting the creation of a company overview document draft with no omission of information.

Comments from Users
Here are comments from M&A professionals who tried it before the service release.
- I think there are two benefits: "improvement of productivity through reduction of man-hours" and "guarantee of project quality through self-checking of collected materials."
- It seems it can definitely be utilized as a draft for a company overview document. Also, I thought the list of materials to be collected and the template for the hearing sheet provided at the same time would be useful for junior members.
- I felt it could be utilized very effectively in creating the initial draft. Of course, it's better to have multiple materials, but it generated the minimum necessary content itself with just three terms of financial statements. It was also helpful that it verbalized features and assumed FAQs.
