Tech Diligence on Your Target—IC-Ready in 5 Business Days
LOI signed Friday. IC’s next Wednesday. We give your committee a tech memo by then. Fixed fee starts at $25K. 24-hour rush start available for active deals.
Most Tech Diligence Doesn’t Fit the Window
Mid-market exclusivity windows are 30-45 days. QofE eats most of it. Legal eats more. By the time tech diligence is engaged, the team has two weeks—and most diligence shops need three.
The result: deal teams either skip serious tech diligence, fly blind on integration risk, or run it post-close as a clean-up exercise after the surprises have already shown up. Each path costs you the leverage to re-trade.
Five business days is the fit-for-purpose answer. Same depth on the questions that move the deal—infrastructure, team, security, hidden costs, synergy—delivered in the window where findings still have leverage.

What Your Deal Team Gets
How the Sprint Runs
Five business days. Two-engineer team. PE-fluent lead.
Mobilize
Engagement letter, target-side NDA, document request list, interview schedule. We can start within 24 hours of LOI signing for active deals; standard mobilization is 2 business days.
Document Review & Interviews
Two-engineer team works the data room. Four to six management interviews—CTO, head of engineering, head of security, head of product. We test what the data room says against what the team says.
Synthesis & Hidden Costs
Tech debt quantified. License overhang and auto-renewals flagged. Engineering team maturity scored. Synergy and automation opportunities mapped. Day-1 integration plan drafted.
IC-Ready Memo
Investment-committee-formatted memo delivered with raw working files. Live readout to the deal team to walk through findings, risks, and the recommended Day-1 actions.
The IC-Ready Memo Pack
Eight components. Investment-committee formatted. Plus raw working files.
Tech Infrastructure Assessment
Cloud, on-prem, hybrid posture. Scalability headroom. Single points of failure. Whether the stack supports the growth case in the model.
Engineering Team Maturity
Process maturity, talent depth, key-person risk. Specific names of engineers whose departure would meaningfully harm the business.
Security & Compliance Red Flags
SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI gaps and exposures. Pre-close remediation list separated from post-close cleanup.
Hidden-Cost Analysis
Tech debt with rough remediation cost. License overhang, auto-renewals, and contract traps. The op-ex line items the seller didn’t volunteer.
Synergy & Automation Map
Where AI and automation move EBITDA in this specific business. Day-1, 100-day, and 12-month opportunity tiers with rough size and effort.
Day-1 Integration Plan
High-level integration sequence executable from close. ERP, CRM, HRIS overlap flagged. The integration risks that would slow synergy capture.
IC-Formatted Memo
Five-to-ten-page memo formatted for investment committee. Recommendation, key risks, post-close priorities, and the questions still worth asking the seller.
Raw Working Files
Interview notes, document review log, scoring rubrics. Useful for re-trade negotiation and for the post-close 100-day plan.
Why PE Deal Teams Choose Proactive Logic
Five Business Days—Real
Other diligence shops take 3-4 weeks. Mid-market exclusivity is 30-45 days. A 5-day product fits inside the window so the deal team can renegotiate or walk while there’s still time.
Engineers Doing the Work
A two-engineer team plus a PE-fluent lead. The people who’ve actually run the systems are the ones reviewing them. No junior analysts behind the scenes.
PE-Fluent, Not Audit-Fluent
200+ PE transactions. We know the difference between a finding that kills a deal, a finding that re-trades a deal, and a finding that’s noise.
Fixed Fee, Optional Rush
Fixed fee starts at $25K, scoped by target revenue. 24-hour rush start available for active exclusivity windows. Procurement-friendly.
In an Active Exclusivity Window?
Book a 30-minute call with a PE-fluent lead. We’ll confirm scope, fee, and start date the same day—and mobilize within 24 hours if your deadline requires it.
