STRATUM translates architectural complexity into financial exposure — deterministic, on-premise, and board-ready in 48 hours. Built for the decisions that move capital, not the engineers who write code.
Not a security scanner. Not a dev tool. An institutional-grade engine that translates architectural complexity into quantified financial and operational risk — for boards, funds, and deal teams. Material exposure frequently exceeds eight figures in complex acquisitions.
Before you buy the company — scan the code.
After you buy it — validate what you actually bought.
For CTOs who don't want surprises.
Deterministic, repeatable, on-premise. Same input always produces the same output.
Code never leaves your environment. No cloud uploads, no third-party access. PE firms require this — we built for it.
Structural analysis that understands how code actually works — not just what it says. Dependencies, coupling, decay patterns.
Architectural risk translated into financial exposure in €€€. Board language, not developer language.
40-page dossier with quantified exposure, dependency maps, compliance gaps, and remediation roadmap.
Traditional tools say "187 vulnerabilities." STRATUM says "€18M material exposure in Auth/Payments — 12 critical services affected, deal price adjusted."
This is what STRATUM sees when it scans your acquisition target. Every service, dependency, and risk cluster — mapped and scored. Drag nodes, explore the coupling patterns, trigger the risk analysis sequence.
This is a simulated graph. In a real STRATUM analysis, every insight maps to file paths, commit history, and financial exposure.
Services used by many others are flagged immediately. A failure here cascades — STRATUM shows you exactly how far and how expensively.
Security layer nodes flagged orange carry regulatory exposure that propagates to every downstream dependent.
AI-generated code now makes up 40–70% of enterprise codebases. STRATUM detects governance gaps before they become liabilities.
Risk accumulation over time is tracked per-node — revealing where architectural decay is accelerating.
No code leaves your perimeter. Air-gap capable. Critical for M&A confidentiality — PE firms cannot upload acquisition target source code to a SaaS vendor. STRATUM runs inside your infrastructure.
Same input always produces the same output. Not AI-guesswork or probabilistic scanning. Deterministic analysis you can present to a board, a court, or an investment committee.
We don't say "187 vulnerabilities." We say "material 8-figure exposure in Auth/Payments, 12 services affected, 3.4yr mean risk age." Board-level language, not developer dashboards.
STRATUM is not a product for developers. It is institutional infrastructure for capital decision-makers who require deterministic evidence before committing — or after closing.
Lower mid-market and mid-cap funds acquiring technology-enabled businesses. Deal teams require code-level validation before IC approval. STRATUM delivers the technical component of investment thesis stress-testing.
Corporate M&A teams acquiring technology assets or tech-enabled competitors. Integration risk must be quantified before close. STRATUM maps architectural incompatibilities and migration cost exposure before merger execution.
Technology leaders preparing portfolio companies for sale. Proactive STRATUM assessment surfaces hidden liabilities before a buyer's DD team does — enabling remediation, narrative control, and price protection.
Boards of technology-heavy companies requiring systematic architectural transparency. Regulatory pressure, AI Act compliance, and fiduciary responsibility increasingly demand quantified technical risk as a board-level metric.
Technical due diligence has not evolved at the pace of the software stacks it is meant to evaluate. The infrastructure layer for institutional code risk does not yet exist as a standard — STRATUM is building it.
"Technical due diligence is currently conducted via interviews, sampling, and consultant narrative. No capital committee receives deterministic, reproducible, quantified architectural evidence. STRATUM is the first infrastructure to change that."
STRATUM operates as deal infrastructure — not a subscription tool. Engagements are structured around capital events, with a natural progression from one-time validation to recurring institutional contract.
A single, time-bounded engagement triggered by an acquisition event. Delivered on-premise, within 48 hours of codebase access. Output is a board-ready dossier with quantified exposure and investment impact assessment.
Recurring analysis for post-acquisition portfolio companies or CTOs requiring continuous architectural visibility. Delivered as a board-ready health report on a quarterly or biannual cadence. Converts deal wins into long-term ARR.
For large PE funds or corporate M&A teams conducting multiple acquisitions annually. STRATUM is deployed permanently within the client's infrastructure, enabling internal teams to run analyses independently across their portfolio.
The category of tool that can replace STRATUM does not exist. The reason is architectural, not competitive — the design constraints of institutional capital are fundamentally incompatible with probabilistic, cloud-based AI scanning.
STRATUM constructs a full dependency graph from source — not a probabilistic summary. Same input, same output, every time. AI-based scanners produce different results on repeat runs. That is disqualifying for a capital committee.
LLM-based tools analyze files in isolation — context windows are finite, cross-file dependency chains are invisible. STRATUM models the entire codebase as a connected graph, capturing systemic risk that file-level analysis structurally cannot see.
PE firms and corporate M&A teams operate under strict data governance. Uploading acquisition target source code to any external API — including AI vendors — is a breach of NDA and deal confidentiality. STRATUM runs entirely on-premise. There is no alternative design that institutional capital will accept.
Developer tools output CVE counts, vulnerability lists, and OWASP scores. Investment committees require financial exposure in €€€, blast radius narratives, deal impact language, and board-ready formatting. These are different products serving different decision-making contexts — and cannot be retrofitted from one to the other.
Every STRATUM engagement follows the same four-stage sequence — from code access to investment committee input. The output at each stage is designed for a different stakeholder: technical lead, deal partner, investment committee, board.
On-premise deployment. Full codebase ingestion. Deterministic dependency graph constructed across all services, modules, and data layers. No sampling. No summarization.
Each node scored by structural risk, coupling density, decay velocity, and compliance exposure. Risk translated from technical indicators into financial exposure estimates. Hotspots ranked by blast radius.
Risk findings translated into deal implications — purchase price adjustment rationale, integration cost estimates, post-close remediation timeline, and scenario modeling for deferred liability. Language calibrated for IC presentation.
Board-ready 40-page dossier delivered within 48 hours. Structured for three audiences simultaneously: technical lead (appendix), deal team (executive summary), investment committee (financial exposure overview). Deterministic — defensible in any post-closing dispute.
We offer a free pre-acquisition scan for one deal in your current pipeline. No data leaves your perimeter. Board-ready report delivered in 48 hours.
On-premise only · No data shared · 48h delivery · Board-ready report included
