Three engagement levels, one methodology

Every ValeBorne engagement runs through the same AI platform and 4-Pillar Framework. The difference is depth, turnaround, and deliverables.

Red Flag Audit (RFA) $15,000 3 days Full 4-pillar analysis Go/no-go decisions pre-investment

Service 01

Single Pillar Analysis

$5,000 · 24–48 hour turnaround

Best for: initial screening, testing our approach, or focusing on one specific concern.

Not ready for a full RFA? Start with a single pillar to understand our approach and validate our analysis quality. Many clients use this as a "test drive" before commissioning a full audit.

Start with a Single Pillar

What's included

  • Deep dive into one pillar of your choice: Technical, Financial, Operational, or Legal
  • Executive summary of findings
  • 3–5 key risk signals with evidence
  • Actionable recommendations specific to the pillar
  • 30-minute debrief call

Service 02 · Flagship

Red Flag Audit (RFA)

$15,000 · 3-day turnaround

Best for: comprehensive risk assessment before deeper investment or acquisition discussions.

The RFA is our flagship service. It gives you everything you need to make an informed go/no-go decision on a potential acquisition target. In 3 days, you'll know the key risks that would take weeks to identify on your own.

The RFA process

Day 1 — Intelligence Gathering

We pull data from our proprietary database, CB Insights, AlphaSense, PubMed, USPTO, and ClinicalTrials.gov to identify initial risk hypotheses.

Day 2 — Hypothesis Validation

We verify each risk signal with independent evidence and identify cross-pillar correlations.

Day 3 — Synthesis & Delivery

We draft the report, conduct four-eyes peer review, and deliver by 5 PM with a debrief call.

Request an RFA

What's included

  • Full 4-Pillar Analysis (Technical, Financial, Operational, Legal)
  • Cross-pillar correlation and compounding risk identification
  • 5-level risk matrix with rationales
  • 10–15 specific risk signals with source documentation
  • Executive summary and actionable CTA
  • 60-minute debrief call

Service 03

Deep Due Diligence (DDD)

$45,000 · 10-day turnaround

Best for: serious acquirers preparing for LOI who need comprehensive, verifiable due diligence.

The DDD is for acquirers who are serious about moving forward. It provides not just risk identification but a practical roadmap for integration—including estimated costs, timelines, and specific pre-LOI validations. This is the level of depth that acquisition committees require to sign off.

The DDD process

Days 1–4 — Foundation & Deep Dive

Intelligence download, parallel pillar deep dives, and cross-pillar war room to identify 3–5 critical, interconnected themes.

Days 5–7 — Validation & Integration

Hypothesis testing, expert outreach, and detailed integration risk modeling with cost and timeline estimates.

Days 8–10 — Synthesis & Delivery

Report drafting, peer review, final polish, and executive debrief.

Request a DDD

What's included

  • All RFA deliverables (4-Pillar Analysis, cross-correlation, risk matrix)
  • Integration risk modeling with cost and timeline estimates
  • Expert outreach and validation
  • Hypothesis disproof and worst-case scenario analysis
  • Post-close integration roadmap (90-day and 12-month)
  • Data confidence scoring per pillar
  • 90-minute executive debrief and Q&A session

Case Study

What Our Clients Discover

Client: A top-tier VC firm evaluating a Series B AI drug discovery company.

Challenge: The company had impressive technical claims but limited public data on financials and operations.

ValeBorne RFA: Our analysis revealed (a) the company's burn rate was 40% higher than implied by their funding history, (b) the CTO was listed as "Founder" with no functional title—a key person dependency risk, and (c) their patent portfolio had a 14-month cliff on their core patent.

Outcome: The client negotiated a 30% lower valuation based on identified risks and structured earnouts tied to key person retention. Estimated savings: $12M.
