AI Due Diligence for investors
Before you commit capital, know what’s real, what’s rework, and what the target’s data actually produces. Buy-side and sell-side engagements sized to your deal timeline — typically 2 to 4 weeks, led by senior Data & AI practitioners who have done this across industries.
Trusted by operators and investors
Buy-side or sell-side
You’re evaluating a target and need an independent read on Data & AI capability. We quantify what you’re buying, what it would cost to reach the claimed maturity, and what hidden risks sit in the data, models, or team.
You’re preparing a company for exit and want to defend the Data & AI story with evidence. We produce a structured maturity profile, benchmarks, and a narrative backed by scoring — not marketing copy.
What we look at
Six dimensions, each scored against industry benchmarks and assessed against your deal thesis.
Data infrastructure & quality
Is the data actually usable? Pipelines, lineage, quality controls, and the real cost of running them at scale.
Models, IP & defensibility
Who owns the models. What’s proprietary versus open-source wrappers. How much of the “AI” is durable capability versus third-party APIs.
Governance & compliance
Data residency, GDPR, AI Act exposure, training-data provenance, model-risk posture. Risks that surface post-close and kill the thesis.
Team capability & retention
Who actually builds the systems. Key-person risk, team density, and realistic retention outlook post-transaction.
Commercial performance & unit economics
What the “AI-powered” metrics really mean. Cost-to-serve, margin profile, and the gap between narrative and numbers.
Scalability & integration risk
What breaks at 10×. Integration debt across acquirer systems. Post-close rework sized in weeks, not slideware.
What you walk away with
- Red-flag report: binary go / go-with-conditions / no-go recommendation with reasoning.
- Scored Maturity Profile across 6 dimensions, benchmarked against peers.
- Post-close investment estimate: what it costs to reach claimed capability.
- Executive summary for the investment committee, full appendix for the deal team.
- Live Fygurs Platform workspace you keep after close to track the 100-day plan.
Timeline & commitment
A standard deal engagement runs 2 to 4 weeks from kickoff to final report, sized to your deal timeline. We take on a limited number of engagements per quarter — if your timeline is tighter, tell us on the first call.
