Bar chart
How GPs responded to AI risk in software
What private equity general partners say they changed in early 2026
A bar chart of the responses general partners reported to AI risk in software in EY's Private Equity Pulse for the first quarter of 2026. Operating partners can use it to show a board or investment committee that testing AI disruption risk is now standard diligence practice. Koji helps put it into practice with customer interviews weighted by revenue.
