STACKDILIGENCE

Know what you're actually buying.

Most deal teams don't have anyone who can tell them what they're actually buying, technically. We do: full-stack technical due diligence for software acquisitions, translated into terms your deal team can act on.

Software doesn't come with a Carfax.

A used car with a bad engine makes noise. A software company with a bad architecture, a security hole, or a key-person dependency looks exactly like a healthy one, right up until you own it. That's what this catches before you close, not after.

You don't need to know how to read code to know if you're overpaying for one. Before you close on a software company, someone who's actually built and scaled production systems should tell you what's underneath: what will hold up, what will cost you six months post-close, and what's a walk-away issue. That's the job.

What this covers

Codebase & architecture

Is it maintainable, or inherited debt.

Infrastructure & scalability

What breaks, and at what growth curve.

Security & compliance

Exposure you'd be buying into.

Team & continuity

Key-person risk, what leaves when the founder does.
