Questions investors ask

What is AI due diligence?
A review of a startup before an investment or acquisition, focused on its AI: traction, the business model, which models it uses and what they cost, whether the AI is its own or a wrapper, data rights, security and regulatory exposure.
How long does it take?
The AI report takes about 10 minutes. A deeper review with code access and a session with the founders is added on request.
Do you need access to the startup's code?
Read-only access gives the most reliable answer. Without it, we work from architecture reviews, demos, usage and cost data, and mark which findings are less certain.
Where do you work with investors?
With venture funds, family offices, corporate and sovereign investors in the United States, the Gulf and Southeast Asia. Reports are in English, with Arabic on request.
Is our deal information confidential?
Yes. We sign an NDA before any review.
