    We Find the Risk. Then We Remove It.

    Five lenses. One verdict. Everything an investor needs to close with conviction.

    Code & Architecture

    Codebase quality, technical debt quantification, and architectural risk against your deal thesis.

    Security & Compliance

    Vulnerability surface, data handling, GDPR/SOC2 readiness. What's exposed and what it costs to fix.

    Infrastructure & Scalability

    Cloud architecture, cost trajectory, and whether the platform actually handles the growth the pitch deck promises.

    Team & Process

    Key person dependencies, delivery velocity, engineering culture. The people risk that doesn't show up in financials.

    Product & AI Readiness

    Is the AI real or a wrapper? Roadmap credibility, data quality, and defensibility of the product moat.

    Growth & Efficiency Levers

    AI adoption opportunities, R&D spend optimization, and engineering velocity gains. Where the tech can do more with less, and what that means for EBITDA.

    The Partner

    I've Been the CTO You're Betting On.

    A decade of technical leadership across European startups as CTO, co-founder, and fractional CTO. I've built, scaled, exited, and audited. I know what good looks like because I've built it. And I know what breaks because I've inherited it.
