Technology & product due diligence for VC, PE & acquirers

The problem
You're backing the story. I tell you whether the technology and product hold it up.
Most deals carry the same hidden risks: secrets sitting in the codebase, architecture that works at ten customers and breaks at a hundred, core IP the company does not fully own, a data moat that is really just stored data, and a retention curve bending toward zero behind a roadmap that has drifted from the revenue story. A pitch deck will not show you any of it. An independent read does, before you commit the capital.
For investors
An independent read that goes past the founder’s deck. Before you commit capital, I scan the whole codebase, review the architecture and the product, and tell you what is real and what it will cost, usually in about five days.
For founders
Walk into your raise knowing exactly where you stand, and what to fix before anyone asks. No surprises in the data room, and no question you can’t answer.
What you get
Three ways to engage.
Technology Due Diligence
A complete read across seven domains, from code and architecture to security, reliability, dependencies and IP. Agents gather the evidence; I tell you what actually matters and what to do about it.

A pure product read across seven domains, from problem validation and PMF to retention, data and moat. The part most technical diligence skips. I’ve been the CTPO, so I know where it hides.
Learn moreFull Suite Diligence
Both, together and connected across four lenses: cost, capability, speed and ownership. Technical findings feed the product picture, like infrastructure cost into unit economics. One report for the people making the decision.
Learn moreThe process
From first call to clear answers in five days.
Scope
A 30-minute call to understand the company, the stage, and what you actually need to know. We agree the scope and what you’ll get.
Scan
I put AI agents across the codebase, infrastructure and docs. They read everything, every repo and not just a sample, in a matter of hours.
Judge
I go through every finding myself and decide what matters at your stage. That judgement is the part you’re paying for.
Support
A clear report, a live walkthrough, and a fix-it plan in priority order. Then I’m around for the questions that follow.

About
I still build, not just advise.
Sixteen years in technology, eight as a CTO. I run WireApps, a 60-engineer firm where every engineer works alongside AI agents every day. I do diligence the same way I run my own company, which means fast, specific, and honest about what’s actually wrong.
Proof
I’ve run the systems diligence is built to test.
This isn’t theory. It’s what happened when I carried real CTO responsibility through the hard part of scaling, which is exactly the kind of pressure a diligence is meant to find.

In their words
Amila stays calm under pressure, anticipates the technical roadblocks, and creates practical solutions that resolve company-wide issues. His technical depth, and the questions he asks, set him apart. He owns the hardest, highest-stakes work and sees it through independently, from our SOC 2 to the Cheesecake Factory rollout. Fortune-100-level support, delivered, and the major reason that account has been so happy with us.
A conversation is the best place to start.
