About Ardour
Building the Liquidity OS for Private Markets
Ardour Secondaries was founded with a simple observation: private market liquidity is still managed through email, spreadsheets, and one-off processes. We're changing that.
Our Story
Private equity secondaries have grown from a niche market to over $100 billion in annual transaction volume. Yet the tools used to manage these transactions haven't evolved.
LPs still evaluate liquidity options in Excel. GPs run GP-led processes through email and PDFs. Secondary funds source deals through networks and relationships with no central system of record.
We built Ardour to change this—creating a shared operating system where all parties work from the same data, scenarios, and workflows.
Mission
Bring a liquidity operating system to private markets—replacing fragmented spreadsheets and one-off processes with continuous, data-driven workflows.
Vision
A world where every LP, GP, and secondary fund has real-time visibility into liquidity options and can act on them with confidence.
Values
We believe in transparency, alignment of interests, and building tools that make complex processes simple.
