The independent codebase audit trusted before the LOI, the SOW, and the board meeting. Four analyzers, one deal-grade PDF, in roughly 60 seconds for roughly $0.02 in API charges.
Maybe it's an agency engagement. Maybe a PE deal. Maybe a CTO seat someone just walked out of.
The pitch deck says "modern stack." The repo says something else.
The README lies, the docs are 18 months stale, and the person who actually understood the architecture left in Q2. You spend the first 30 days of every engagement just trying to figure out what's actually in there before you can do anything useful.
Inheritance Audit Mode compresses those 30 days into 60 seconds.
Each analyzer runs independently against the codebase, then synthesizes into a single executive-summary PDF you can hand to a deal committee, a board, or a client without an apology.
An independent inventory of every framework, runtime, and dependency actually running in production. No reliance on what the seller said in the pitch deck.
Bus factor math from anonymized git authorship. Identifies the people whose departure would meaningfully impact your ability to operate or modify the codebase.
The license-and-EOL map you should have asked for before signing. Surfaces copyleft licenses in commercial code, deprecated libraries, and dependencies that hit EOL months or years ago.
A confidence-rated, AI-synthesized 90-day plan. Stabilize or rebuild recommendation, prioritized by deal impact. Source-grounded, with traceable evidence.
Run it before your stakeholder call. Show up with the freshest read on the codebase in the room.
Inheritance Audit Mode is purpose-built for the moments where the cost of being wrong is measured in commas, not cents.
You've been burned by SOWs that priced 200 hours and consumed 800. Inheritance Audit gives you the independent codebase read you need to price with confidence — and the deal-grade PDF you can attach to the proposal.
Sellers tell their story. The codebase tells its own. Inheritance Audit gives the deal team an independent technical read before the term sheet — surfacing EOL risk, key-person concentration, and license exposure in time to negotiate or walk.
You walk into engagements where the last CTO left, the team is two engineers thin, and the board wants a roadmap by Friday. Inheritance Audit gives you the deal-grade artifact in 60 seconds — and the 90-day plan you can defend on slide 4.
