Ark
Ark is a configurable fund operations platform for private capital managers and administrators. It combines fund accounting, LP reporting, investor relations, and fundraising tools, available through the web and an API. Accounting includes a fund-specific general ledger, real-time financial data, configurable reporting, and automated workflows. Ark supports capital account tracking, LP allocation waterfalls, carried-interest calculations, and capital-call workflows. Quarterly reports can be exported to Excel with formulas, while the arkLink plug-in synchronizes reports with spreadsheets for building, reconciling, and refreshing them. A branded investor portal connects with back-office systems and gives LPs real-time data. Fundraising features include data rooms, investor insights, and document management. Bank integrations support reconciliation, cash-position checks, capital-call payment verification, and automated journal entries. Ark lists API-driven connectivity, encryption, controlled access, SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, and continuous data replication. Pricing is on request, with an annual fee based on committed capital.
