What tech buyers check first

IP ownership

Buyers check that the company, not a founder or contractor, owns the code. We fix gaps with assignments before diligence starts.

Customer contracts

Change of control clauses, termination rights and liability caps all affect value. We review them early so there are no surprises.

Recurring revenue

Subscription and managed service income is often the heart of the price. Warranties around it need careful limits.

Data protection

UK GDPR compliance, data processing agreements and security incidents are standard diligence questions for any tech buyer.

Key people

Earn-outs, retention arrangements and restrictive covenants for founders and senior engineers.

Open source

Licence obligations in your codebase can worry a buyer. We help you explain them clearly.
