Deals rarely die on the product. They die on the unanswered question.

01 · What it is

Outside-in diligence — condensed into one rapid package.

Six dimensions of readiness. The gaps that stall deals, flagged early. A plan to close them. Months of analytical work, delivered as an evidence package you walk in the room with.

02 · Who it’s for

Anyone preparing to be judged — and anyone doing the judging.

Founders preparing to raise or exit. Mature companies weighing a dual-use pivot, U.S. market entry, or a new business line. Investors, family offices, and acquirers evaluating them.

Same framework, same head start on the hard questions.

03 · The framework

Six pillars. Scored against evidence, not belief.

01
People
Founder-market fit, leadership depth, key-person risk, and whether the bench can absorb the next stage.
Pillar
02
Opportunity
Market, timing, and differentiation — checked against evidence rather than belief.
Pillar
03
Context
Stage, sector, capital environment, competition, and regulatory exposure — every score read against the right baseline.
Pillar
04
Deal
Capital structure, cap table health, revenue model, and unit economics under investor or acquirer scrutiny.
Pillar
05
Operational Capacity
Whether delivery, infrastructure, and process can carry the plan — and whether end users will adopt the technology as built.
Pillar
06
Compliance & Security
AI, data, security, and regulatory posture measured against frameworks like the ARISE Framework™, CMMC, and the NIST AI RMF. Gaps that would become procurement blockers, surfaced first.
Pillar

Same framework. Same bar. Every company.

04 · How it works

Four phases. One rapid, common-sense package.

01
Holistic Deep Dive
Pitch deck and IR review, independent research and references, framework-mapped questionnaire.
02
Operational Capacity
TRL/MRL, non-standard use-case review, pre-mortem on the plan, non-dilutive funding pathways.
03
Compliance Snapshot
Maturity ratings across CMMC 2.0, NIST SP 800-171, and the NIST AI RMF — with an estimated SPRS score, via the ARISE Framework™.
Powered by Assessed Intelligence
04
Narrative & Positioning
Second deck pass, storytelling workshop, collateral review, and a recorded podcast interview.
05 · What you get

Six deliverables. An evidence package, versioned.

01
Executive Summary
Where you stand and where the risk concentrates.
02
Gap Analysis Report
Findings across the six pillars, with an updated business plan and roadmap recommendations.
03
Compliance Snapshot
Maturity ratings across CMMC 2.0, NIST SP 800-171, and the NIST AI RMF — with an estimated SPRS score, via the ARISE Framework™.
04
Pitch Deck & Narrative
Recommendations that close the gap between the deck and the evidence.
05

Diligence stops being something done to you and starts being something you walk in already having done.
