For investors
Diligence to value creation
Because we build every day, we know what good looks like, and how long it really takes to get there.
Before the deal
Technology diligence
- A red-flag read in days
- We focus first on the four or five issues that matter most to your thesis, so you know early whether anything should change the deal.
- Judged by people who ship
- Architecture, code, data, security, delivery practices and the team itself, assessed by engineers who build and run platforms every day.
- Every claim tied to evidence
- Our AI co-pilot, Black Cove, reads the full data room and every interview, so each finding is cited back to its source.
- A clear path forward
- Risks, costs and the realistic path to modernize, in language a deal team and an investment committee can act on.
After the close · New
Value creation
- A costed, sequenced plan
- Diligence findings become a practical plan: what to fix first, what to modernize, what to build, and what it will take.
- Teams that execute
- Named engineering teams and interim technology leadership deliver the plan, gated by milestones you can track.
- AI and automation
- We apply AI where it moves the numbers, in the product and in the operation, with the governance a portfolio company needs.
- One team, end to end
- The people who assessed the asset are the people who help deliver the value, so nothing is lost between diligence and execution.
How it works
From thesis to results
Engagements are phased, so you only go as deep as the deal requires, and the same team can carry the work through to execution.
Phase 1
Key factors
A focused review of the issues that matter most to the thesis, with management sessions and a document review.
Phase 2
Deep dive
Architecture, code, data, delivery, infrastructure and security, with code inspection where it matters.
After close
Plan and execute
A costed plan, then engineering teams and interim leadership to deliver it.
Powered by Black Cove
Reads everything. Connects the dots.
Our diligence runs on Black Cove, the AI co-pilot we built from hundreds of our own assessments. It reads the entire data room and every interview, prepares sharper questions, and reconciles what management says against what the evidence shows.
Senior assessors stay in control of every judgment. The result is a faster read, with every finding traceable to its source.
