SAIL, an initiative of TIIP

Systems Aware Investing Launchpad · A TIIP platform

The first AI platform for managing systemic risks.

SAIL is an AI-enhanced platform that helps investors manage systemic risks end to end: developing strategy, aggregating data, running diagnostics on current practices and generating mandatory and voluntary reporting in hours, not months.

It meets investors wherever they are today, whether focused on ESG integration, sustainability or impact investing, and gives them the tools to implement and scale system-level investing when they are ready.

The problem

Traditional tools do not address today's systemic risks.

Twenty-first century environmental, social and financial risks are complex and interconnected. They do not show up neatly in a spreadsheet or quarterly report, yet they can fundamentally destabilize investment portfolios.

The real-world risk
What traditional tools track

Climate change

Extreme weather, community displacement, asset stranding, insurance retreat

GHG emissions

Income inequality

Suppressed demand, social instability, eroded growth

Pay ratios

Pandemics

Systemic supply chain disruption, drained public budgets

Business continuity plans

Financial excesses

Market collapse, bailout exposure, unemployment shocks

Backward-looking risk scores

What investors need

Tools that reflect the shift underway to system-level investing, and that provide:

  • A strategic edge, not just scores and disclosure
  • Portfolio-level systemic risk quantification
  • Actionable diagnostics that identify exposure gaps
  • Tools that turn risk intelligence into investment decisions
  • Peer benchmarks to understand relative positioning

How SAIL works

From data chaos to systemic risk intelligence.

SAIL combines more than a decade of TIIP research and practice with AI infrastructure, in the first AI-enhanced software platform built for system-level investing.

TIIP's system-level IP

  • 11 years of field-tested frameworks
  • Strategic diagnostics
  • Investor benchmarks
  • System-level risk mapping

AI infrastructure

  • Automated workflows
  • Smart tagging
  • Scenario logic
  • Cross-user learning

SAIL Assistant

An AI chat assistant built on TIIP's published research, available throughout the platform. It is like having the TIIP team by your side, in real time.

Systemic risk intelligence turns fragmented data into a bidirectional, portfolio-wide, actionable view of how an investor's holdings shape, and are shaped by, systemic risk. That drives a coherent strategy across an entire organization, and across the field itself.

Watch how SAIL works: an 85-second tour of the platform.

What it solves

SAIL turns data chaos into strategic insight.

Function
Pain point
The SAIL solution
Consolidate and analyze scattered data
Data scattered across PDFs, spreadsheets, dashboards and disclosures
Upload once. SAIL recognizes formats and consolidates performance, ESG and impact, and systems-alignment data.
Improve investment practices
Too little time to analyze trends or identify gaps across managers or portfolios
Instant diagnostics against TIIP benchmarks that visualize influence strategies, gaps and systemic contribution.
Generate and streamline reporting
Months spent duplicating content for each disclosure framework
Auto-fills PRI, IEN, GRESB, ImpactAssets 50, Fund ID and more, reusing past content to reduce duplication.
Use comparative insights
Unclear how to compare to peers or run useful internal evaluations
Benchmark peer or manager practices to spot alignment gaps, escalation lags and positive deviance.

The platform

Five tools for every stage of the system-level investing journey.

Live

Launchpad

A first-of-its-kind, plug-and-play tool that guides investors in developing and refining system-level investing approaches. Initialize your organization's profile with AI, then work through six interconnected steps.

  • A self-serve catalog of 17 diagnostics covering ESG, impact and system-level approaches
  • Strategic focus, goal setting, asset allocation, implementation and evaluation
  • Readiness assessment, proxy voting guidelines and more
01Set FoundationDefine investment beliefs for system-level thinking
02Choose FocusSelect the environmental, social or financial systems to influence
03Plan ApproachDevelop tactics and strategies for systemic influence
04Set GoalsEstablish measurable objectives for system-level change
05Apply ToolsUse conventional and advanced investment techniques
06Evaluate ResultsMeasure progress and report on system-level influence
Live

Cross-check

A data and analytics tool for comparing, tracking and understanding investor approaches. It supports due diligence and peer comparison, and shows how your approach compares to leading practice.

  • A database of 800+ investor profiles
  • Compare two to five investors side by side, or ask the AI for insights
  • Track changes over time and download reports as PDF or CSV
Live

Reporting

A streamlined way to meet mandatory and voluntary disclosure requirements without duplication or fatigue. Your Launchpad profile and supporting files become the context for each draft.

  • Auto-populates frameworks including PRI, IEN, GRESB, ImpactAssets 50 and Fund ID
  • Add context from PDFs or web pages
  • Reuses past content so you write it once

Live

Rework

Speeds up questionnaire and due diligence completion, and lets you test how policies, programs and practices should adapt when new systemic risks, or intersections of risks, emerge.

  • Auto-populate draft responses to questionnaires and DDQs
  • Rewrite a policy to incorporate new risks or breaking events
  • Prototype responses quickly when a risk rises in priority

Dashboard

A portfolio-wide view of how your holdings strengthen or strain the real-world systems they depend on, across every asset class and manager. Available as part of the Total Portfolio Subscription.

  • Reads every holding against the four characteristics of system health: Adaptability, Clarity, Connectivity and Directionality
  • Four lenses: company, manager, sector and industry, and the real economy, including systems you define yourself
  • Ranks the systems your capital reaches, scopes documented controversies, and produces committee-ready executive summaries, with every figure traced back to its source

The outcome

Unlocking strategic capacity for investment teams.

Without SAIL

Months of staff time

Reconciling data by hand, building every report from scratch, multiple internal reviews, and $150,000 to $200,000 in outside consultant fees.

With SAIL

Hours, by a single analyst

The same work, completed in hours, so teams can spend their time on strategy and stewardship instead of paperwork.
