Tech Due Diligence

Independent, rigorous assessment of a technology asset before close - translated into commercial language deal teams can negotiate with.

Overview

We evaluate the full technology stack: architecture and scalability, technical debt and remediation cost, security posture, engineering team quality, development practices, and the gap between what exists and what the business plan requires.

Findings translate into commercial language - risk, remediation, headcount, time. Our reports hold up in the boardroom and stand behind a price negotiation.

Output style
Executive summary first. Technical evidence behind. Commercial framing throughout.
