Meet Neo, your AI-powered Co-GP.
Model any waterfall, validated to the cent
Configure the exact waterfall logic your operating agreement requires — pro-rata, multi-tier hurdles, GP catch-up, promote splits, and share classes. The engine runs the math every cycle, so you never touch a spreadsheet again.
Deal structures as unique as your portfolio
A single-asset syndication distributing rental income pro-rata looks nothing like a commingled fund running a four-tier waterfall with an IRR hurdle, GP catch-up, and promote split. Covercy One lets you configure the exact logic each deal requires — down to individual share classes, preferred-return rates, and lookback provisions.
- Pro-rata, multi-tier, and custom structures
- Preferred return, GP catch-up, and promote tiers
- IRR-based and equity-multiple hurdles
- Share-class and entity-level allocations
- American (deal-by-deal) and European (whole-fund) models
- Per-asset or fund-level configuration
Every investor sees exactly how it was calculated
Each distribution shows how an investor’s amount was derived — ownership percentage, capital contributed, preferred return accrued, and final payout — flowing through each tier. A pre-distribution validation report confirms every number before a dollar moves, so GPs and LPs share one source of truth.
- Per-investor allocation breakdown
- Tier-by-tier capital flow
- Validated calculation report before payout
- Complete audit trail
Configure once, run it every cycle
Set up your waterfall to match the partnership agreement, then let the engine handle the math distribution after distribution.
Your agreement, encoded
Define tiers, hurdles, catch-up, promote, and share classes exactly as your operating agreement specifies — then reuse the structure every cycle.
Validated before you send
Every distribution generates a validation report you approve before funds move — calculations verified to the cent against your configuration.
One source of truth
GPs and LPs see the same per-tier, per-investor breakdown, so the math is never in question and the back-and-forth stops.

ExploreWaterfall management questions
- What types of waterfall structures does Covercy support?
- Covercy One supports all standard waterfall structures including pro-rata, American (deal-by-deal), European (whole-fund), and hybrid models. You can configure unlimited tiers with specific return hurdles, catch-up clauses, and promote allocations. Both IRR-based and equity multiple-based hurdle calculations are supported.
- Can I manage multiple share classes within a single deal?
- Yes. Covercy One lets you define multiple share classes per deal, each with its own preferred return, fee structure, and waterfall priority. The platform tracks each class independently and calculates distributions according to the specified class hierarchy.
- How are waterfall calculations validated?
- Every distribution generates a detailed validation report before funds are disbursed. The report shows each tier’s calculation, the amounts allocated to each investor, and any adjustments. You can review and approve the report before triggering payments.
- Can waterfalls be configured differently per asset within a fund?
- Yes. Covercy One supports both asset-level and fund-level waterfall configurations. You can set different waterfall structures for individual assets within the same fund, giving you maximum flexibility for multi-asset portfolios.
