Platform Due Diligence
Our comprehensive platform due diligence process leaves no stone unturned. We meticulously analyze every aspect of a company's technology to provide you with a clear and actionable report.
Team Assessment
We evaluate the technical team's expertise and experience, from novices to seasoned experts. A strong team is crucial for a platform's success, and we identify any gaps or strengths.
Architecture Overview
We provide a comprehensive review of the platform's architecture. We analyze the entire system, from the frontend to the backend, to ensure it's well-designed, maintainable, and fit for purpose.
Developer Onboarding
A smooth onboarding process is a sign of a well-documented and organized codebase. We assess how quickly a new developer can become productive, which is a key indicator of the platform's health.
Technology Stack
We analyze the technology stack to determine if it's adequate for the business goals. We look at programming languages, frameworks, and libraries to ensure they are modern, scalable, and not a source of future technical debt.
Scalability
Can the platform handle a sudden surge in users? We perform load testing and analyze the architecture to determine if the system is ready to scale or if it will face challenges under pressure.
Security
We identify potential security vulnerabilities before they become a problem. Our analysis includes vulnerability scans, code reviews, and checks for best practices to ensure the platform is secure against common threats.
Cost Analysis
Is the infrastructure cost-effective? We review the hosting, third-party services, and operational costs to identify any mismanagement and provide recommendations for optimization.
Legal & Compliance
We check for potential legal issues, including open-source license compliance (GPL, AGPL, etc.) and adherence to regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC-2. We ensure the company's intellectual property is reasonably protected.
