FAQ
Common questions
What's the difference between the three report types?
The Red Flag Report ($990) is a fast, low-cost check for a deal of any size: within 48 hours of receiving the seller’s documents you get a risk rating, a price-range recommendation and, if justified, a recommendation to walk away. The Standard Report ($3,300) provides a comprehensive 12-month document-based review including full financial verification, GA4 access, and complete legal audit, ideal for purchases up to $250k and includes a basic code overview. The Deep Dive Report ($4,950) offers forensic 24-month verification with bank statement analysis, full code review, and dedicated senior lawyer support for $250k+ transactions and businesses in regulated industries.
Should I start with a Red Flag Report?
If you want a quick check on a business before committing to a full due diligence, yes, even before you sign an LOI. It covers business metrics, financials, compliance, key-person risk and the code, and gives you a risk rating, a price-range recommendation and, if the evidence justifies it, a recommendation to walk away. If you go ahead, upgrade to a Standard or Deep Dive Report within 60 days and the full Red Flag fee is credited, so it costs you nothing extra. If you walk away, it was cheap protection against a bad deal.
How does payment work?
Each package has one fixed price, paid in full when you order, with no deposit and no balance to pay later. Not sure which package you need? Book a free call first. A supplement may apply to deals above $2M USD.
How long does each type of report take?
A Red Flag Report arrives within 48 hours of receiving the seller’s documents. Standard and Deep Dive Reports take 10-15 business days, depending on complexity. Timelines can be adjusted for urgent transactions or complex business structures.
What if you find problems during the due diligence?
Finding issues isn't necessarily bad news! Often, problems we discover can be fixed or used as negotiation leverage to reduce the purchase price. We've helped clients negotiate significant price reductions based on our findings. In cases where we find serious fraud or insurmountable issues, we may have saved you from a disastrous investment.
Can I upgrade from a Red Flag Report to a more comprehensive package?
Yes. Upgrade to a Standard or Deep Dive Report within 60 days of receiving your Red Flag Report and the full Red Flag fee is credited, so you only pay the difference. Book a call and we'll send you a payment link for it.
What industries do you specialize in?
We specialize in online businesses including e-commerce (digital products, dropship, inventory-based, Shopify), SaaS (B2B/B2C software, marketing tools, developer tools), service businesses (agencies, consulting, IT services), and content sites (blogs, directories, forums). Our Package Picker can help recommend the right level of diligence for your specific industry.
What happens after you complete the report?
You'll receive a detailed written report (15-70 pages depending on package) and have a consultation call with our team to discuss findings, answer questions, and provide recommendations. We remain available for follow-up questions as you move forward with negotiation and closing.
What documents will I need to provide?
Common documents include business registration, financial statements (P&Ls, bank statements), traffic analytics (Google Analytics, Search Console), customer data, contracts with suppliers/customers, IP ownership proof, and tax returns. The specific requirements vary by package level and will be outlined during your kickoff call.
