A 30‑day technical assessment investors can act on.

We assess the codebase, architecture, and delivery practices of a software company with read-only access and strict confidentiality. You receive evidence-backed findings and a post-close roadmap.

30day assessment

Thirty days with read-only access under strict confidentiality. Investors finish with evidence-backed findings and a post-close roadmap.

A 30‑day technical assessment. Six answers in writing.

A-01

Where the codebase stands

Maintainability, architecture, dependencies, security, licensing, and testing, each tied to observable evidence.

A-02

What can be done about it

Which findings matter to the deal, which are routine, and what remediation realistically involves.

A-03

Which tools will help

Engineering and AI tooling that would raise delivery speed and quality after close.

A-04

What to improve in the process

How the team ships today, where delivery risk sits, and which practices to change first.

A-05

How to upgrade legacy components

The parts of the platform that will need modernization, and a sensible order to tackle them.

A-06

How long it takes, and the roadmap

A post-close technical roadmap with durations and priorities the operating team can own.

What happens in each of the four weeks.

Week 101

Kickoff and scope

We walk you through our in-house analysis system, which scans your code, repositories, and databases, and agree exactly what the assessment will cover and what you will receive.

  • Scope, systems, and people agreed
  • What you will get: architecture, workflows, recommendations, timeline, risks
  • A go or no-go decision before any access is given
Week 202

NDA, access, and the scan

Once you are ready to proceed, we sign an NDA and you grant read-only access to the necessary repositories and databases. Then our system runs.

  • NDA signed, read-only access granted
  • Data lineage traced across code and databases
  • Workflows and dependencies identified
Week 303

Verify and weigh the options

Senior engineers verify what the system found in working sessions with your team, and capture what is not written down anywhere.

  • Findings confirmed or corrected with your people
  • Options, tools, and process fixes compared
  • Legacy upgrade paths tested against your constraints
Week 404

Roadmap and readout

You receive the written findings and we walk the decision makers through them.

  • Overall architecture and workflow documentation
  • Recommendations and risks, in priority order
  • Timeline and roadmap for the work

One purpose-built assessment for software investors.

Each assessment begins read-only, states uncertainty plainly, and ends with a written roadmap rather than an open-ended discovery program.
