Pre-close technology assessment for acquisition buyers. I find the domain, DNS, hosting, SEO, and credential gaps that kill deals after close — in 48 hours, for a fixed fee.
See what gets checkedYou just bought a $1.5M HVAC company. The financials checked out. The lawyer blessed the contract. The tax structure is clean.
Then Day 3 post-close happens:
None of this was in the LOI. None of this was caught by your lawyer. And now it's your $40,000 problem.
That is what digital diligence catches.
