QL Fair Value Desk

The quarterly valuation conversation with your auditor, prepared in minutes: describe the holdings on your book — private names and listed ones — and get one evidence pack per position. Private holdings get the last-round anchor, the marks Fidelity and T. Rowe filed with the SEC, the observed secondary print, the public-comps bridge and the QL model mark; listed holdings get the quoted close and a standardized DCF baseline — every line dated and sourced, drawn on an interactive evidence ladder, arranged in the order an ASC 820 walk actually follows, and hash-stamped so you can prove what the evidence said when you marked. Evidence, not an opinion: the desk never tells you what your mark should be. Nothing you enter is stored.

Legs are omitted, never invented. The coverage catalogue below shows exactly which legs exist for each name today, before you build the book.
Fund marks source
N-PORT
SEC-filed, sworn, quarterly — via QL Mark Tape
A fiduciary's carrying value, per share and per class, with the holder names. When managers disagree ≥3× on one series the pack flags a basis difference.
Book scope
Private + listed
roster slugs and exchange tickers in one book
Listed positions compare per share against a Level 1 quoted price; private positions compare at the valuation level. The same concordance rule applies to both.
Stored
Nothing
your book lives in the request and dies with the response
The draft you see here is kept only in this browser. No holding, carrying value or ticker is written server-side — ever.
Sealed
SHA-256
per-pack hash + a book hash over the chain
Re-running with identical evidence reproduces every hash exactly, so an edited pack — or an edited book — is detectable.

Your book

One row per holding. Private rows take the company's QuantLogix slug (as in quantlogix.ai/private-companies URLs — stripe, anthropic); Listed rows take the exchange ticker (NVDA). Carrying values are optional — with them the desk says where your mark sits inside the evidence; without them you still get the dated evidence lines.

How the desk reads

1 · Anchor / quote
The last disclosed round or tender — a real transaction, with its age printed. Older than 18 months and the pack flags it. For a listed name the anchor is the quoted close itself: Level 1.
The evidence ladder draws the anchor in blue; the ageing simulator shows the day it crosses the stale line.
2 · Observable
SEC-filed N-PORT fund marks (a fiduciary's sworn carrying value, per share and per class) and the secondary-market implied valuation, each on its own as-of date.
Drawn in green. The next N-PORT filing date is projected from the last one, so you know what will land before quarter-end.
3 · Corroboration
The public-comps bridge and the blended QL Mark — or, for a ticker, the standardized DCF baseline — clearly labelled models, never presented as observations.
Drawn in violet. A model leg can corroborate a mark; it is never the reason for one.
4 · Concordance
Where your carrying value sits inside that evidence, in plain words: corroborated, inside the range, above it, below it — plus the flags an auditor would raise.
The mark simulator lets you slide a hypothetical carrying value along the ladder and watch the verdict change — the evidence never moves, only your mark does.

Method, stated

The desk composes QuantLogix's existing records — QL Private Marks (the model mark), QL Mark Tape (SEC-filed fund marks), QL Secondary Tape (observed prints), and for listed names the consolidated tape and the QL Expectations baseline — around your own holdings, and publishes no rival number. Legs are omitted, never invented: a company with no secondary print simply has no secondary line. The last-round anchor assumes the disclosed post-money corresponds to that round and ignores interim dilution. N-PORT fund marks price a specific share class; when your holding is a different class the comparison is indicative and the pack names the class the funds marked. A listed position is compared per share against the quoted close; its carrying value is a position, never a company valuation. A carrying value is called corroborated by a leg when it sits within ±15% of it. The per-pack hash is SHA-256 over the canonicalized pack; re-running with identical evidence reproduces it exactly. This is not a valuation opinion, not a 409A, and not investment advice — the judgement stays with the preparer and their auditor.

Frequently asked questions

What is the QL Fair Value Desk?

A quarterly valuation-ops workflow for GPs, fund CFOs and family offices: describe your private and listed holdings and get one ASC 820-shaped evidence pack per position — the last-round anchor, SEC-filed N-PORT fund marks and observed secondary prints for private names; the quoted close and a standardized DCF baseline for tickers. Legs are omitted, never invented.

Does the desk give a fair-value opinion?

No. It composes evidence and publishes no rival number — the judgment stays with the preparer and their auditor. It is not a 409A and not investment advice.

Can an evidence pack be verified later?

Yes. Each pack carries a SHA-256 hash over its canonicalized contents; re-running with identical evidence reproduces the hash exactly, so an edited pack is detectable.
