Technical diligence · After closeFile № 001 / Acquisitions

Defensible due diligence.Every score, every citation.

Technical diligence between letter of intent and Day 100 still lives in spreadsheets and email. Gray Ark puts the assessment, the cited answers, and the Day 100 plan in one place.

The problem

Technical diligence still runs on spreadsheets and trust.

Between letter of intent and Day 100, the work is emailed questionnaires and screenshots in a shared drive. Scores don't compare across deals. By the investment committee, nobody can show which answers were checked. The gaps never become a plan.

01

Inconsistent coverage

Every deal gets a different questionnaire, a different reviewer, a different depth. Scores aren't comparable across the portfolio.

02

Unverifiable claims

Targets self-attest. Evidence sits in a shared drive nobody re-opens. By the investment committee, no one can say which answers were checked.

03

Findings die at close

The diligence deck ships, the deal signs, and the gaps never become an integration plan. Day 1 starts from a blank page.

The workspace

One workspace. Letter of intent to Day 100.

The same assessment, every deal

Your questions, plus a managed library. Conditional logic hides what doesn't apply. Maturity 0–5 on every answer.

Cited evidence

The model proposes an answer only when it can quote the source. A reviewer accepts or rejects it, and that is recorded.

The same yardstick

Each target is scored against your own baseline and prior deals.

Gaps become a Day 100 plan

Close the assessment and the gaps turn into tasks with owners and timing from your playbook.

Cited evidence, then a Day 100 plan.

Two surfaces that carry a deal. The rest of the workspace is in the full dossier.

Evidence ingestion with cited answers

Drop policy PDFs, SOC 2 reports, architecture diagrams, or pen-test reports on a deal. The platform proposes an answer only when it can quote the document. A reviewer accepts, rejects, or edits it.

  • Parses PDF and Word files
  • Drops any answer whose quote is not in the document
  • Accept or reject is stored with who reviewed it
