Series A Technical Readiness Scorecard

A 15-point self-assessment for founders preparing for Series A. Identify the technical gaps most likely to be flagged during VC due diligence — before the investor does.

Most founders discover their technical vulnerabilities when a term sheet is on the table and a due diligence firm is auditing their codebase. This scorecard surfaces those gaps three to six months earlier, when there is still time to resolve them.

Sample Dimensions

Architecture

Can your codebase support 10× current user load without a rewrite?

Ownership

Do you own your infrastructure outright — or are you locked into a vendor?

Security

Can you demonstrate security compliance documentation on request?

Team

Is your engineering capability dependent on a single developer?

Documentation

Is your architecture documented well enough to onboard a new CTO?

// Full scorecard includes 15 questions, scoring rubric, and a red/amber/green classification per dimension
