What PPMFast is

A one-time-purchase template marketplace

PPMFast publishes a catalog of downloadable Word packages organized by entity, security type, exemption, and use case, and now promotes using a customer’s preferred AI tool to assist with drafting. Its public product page says packages may include a PPM, investor questionnaire, subscription agreement or note, operating agreement for LLC packages, and state and SEC Regulation D filing documents. Buyers should confirm exact contents, update rights, and current price before checkout.

For a sponsor doing a single one-off raise, that model can be attractive — a stated package price, no recurring plan, and a locally editable document. License and update rights should be confirmed before purchase. Structured calculations and deal-specific editing are handled in Word or separate tools rather than a hosted wizard.

What PPMWizard is

A guided wizard with one-time and subscription options

PPMWizard is a hosted app you sign into. You walk a guided flow that asks structured questions about your deal, your exemption, your sponsor, and your distributions, and the document assembles as you go. A built-in waterfall calculator, a 54-factor risk catalog with asset-specific suggestions, 21 sample offerings, and an editorial layout engine are available while drafting. Export one PPM package for $249, or use Pro for unlimited drafts and exports.

The one-time option fits a single raise; the subscription fits repeat issuers. In both cases, users can validate the workflow and preview the draft before paying.

PPMFast

PPMWizard

Pricing model
Partial: PPMFast publishes a catalog of separately priced templates and filing services. Verify the current package and checkout price on its site.
Yes: $249 for one PPM export package, or Pro at $199/month or $1,990/year for unlimited PPMs. Draft and preview up to 3 offerings free.
Draft mechanism
Partial: Downloadable Word-template workflow. The purchaser edits the package directly rather than answering questions in a hosted wizard.
Yes: Guided wizard. Answer structured questions; the document assembles as you go.
Built-in distribution waterfall
Partial: Its public template page does not advertise a built-in live waterfall calculator; confirm package capabilities directly.
Yes: Preferred return, catch-up, promote, and IRR-hurdle inputs are built in. Applicable real-estate workflows also connect the economics to underwriting and sensitivity outputs.
Risk factor library
Partial: The selected template contains risk-factor language. Deal-specific selection and editing remain part of the purchaser and counsel workflow.
Yes: A 54-factor catalog filtered to an asset-specific starting set, plus a custom-risk builder. The sponsor selects what applies.
Exemption-aware language
Partial: Select a package designed for the relevant entity and exemption, then edit the downloaded documents directly.
Yes: For 506(b) and 506(c), the wizard coordinates solicitation, verification, and related disclosure language.
Updates after purchase
Partial: A downloaded package can be edited locally. Confirm update rights and access to later versions with PPMFast before purchase.

Yes: Real estate, business M&A, oil & gas, private credit, venture SPVs, farmland, film — all from one wizard.
Asset-class tuning inside the draft
Partial: Tuning comes from choosing and editing the closest package rather than changing structured inputs inside a hosted application.
Yes: Prompts, narrative sections, and suggested risk factors adapt to the selected asset class; financial-engine depth varies by workflow.
Counsel redline loop
Partial: Export to Word and send to counsel. Redlines go back into the same file.
Yes: Export an editable Word draft for comments and Track Changes. Word edits do not sync automatically; approved revisions must be copied into the wizard manually for later exports.
Related offering documents
Yes: PPMFast says packages include an investor questionnaire, subscription agreement or note, and state and SEC Regulation D filing documents; package contents vary.
Yes: Includes editable Word, a polished PDF, an investor questionnaire, an applicable Form D pre-fill, and a real-estate Excel model where applicable.

Section III · Honest Fit

Each product fits a different raise

When PPMFast might fit

A downloadable template can fit teams that prefer to work directly in Word, already have their own calculation and version-control process, and want a locally editable package from the outset.

A template model also fits when you already have a working waterfall model in Excel and want counsel to work primarily inside a Word document.

When PPMWizard might fit

Sponsors who want guided inputs, live preview, linked waterfall calculations, and coordinated exports. The $249 one-PPM export option fits a single raise; Pro fits a repeat pipeline.

Anyone who wants a freemium entry point — try the full wizard, review the watermarked preview, and pay only when the draft is ready to export.
