Technical due diligence

Technical due diligence for founders raising Seed, Series A, and beyond

HyperNest Labs acts as your fractional CTO for fundraising and technical due diligence. We turn messy systems into a clear story investors and acquirers can trust—without pulling you out of customer and partner conversations.

We've supported technical due diligence and pre-acquisition readiness for startups operating in regulated, high-scale environments. This includes preparing architecture docs, reliability histories, security evidence, and dataroom artifacts for companies like Rupa Health (acquired by Fullscript) and OddsJam (acquired by Gambling.com), while joining live partner, corp dev, and security calls as your technical counterpart.

We've also supported recovery and security hardening for companies like EatCookJoy, which rebuilt its platform after a cyberattack attempt and scaled to $1M ARR in 7 months—demonstrating how technical resilience enables rapid growth even after major incidents.
