Previous engagements
From pre-seed rounds to corporate M&A, we deliver fast, reliable, and investor-ready technical DD.
For a Series A investment into a SaaS startup, we identified critical scalability limitations and engineering leadership gaps, enabling the investor to renegotiate terms and adjust the post-money valuation.
During a pre-acquisition technical due diligence, we uncovered significant data architecture weaknesses and hidden tech debt, guiding the acquirer to pursue a stronger competitor instead.
For a corporate M&A deal, we delivered a rapid technical due diligence that surfaced key technology debts, directly shaping the acquisition price and informing the integration roadmap.
What our clients say
Fast, thorough and actionable. We help investors make the right call.
Our team was deeply impressed by the depth and clarity of Neuhaus Advisory's DD report. Their insights were instrumental in our investment decision-making process and we will definitely engage them again for future deals.
Patrick is one of those rare people who combines deep technical expertise with an ability to speak business. He proves time and again how quickly he can assess complex technical situations and distill them into clear, actionable insights.
Not one deal is signed without Patrick's thorough technical DD. I have great respect for his sharp assessments and strong expertise in engineering + product, which have become invaluable to our investment process.
