RDIV / DUE DILIGENCE

DO NOT BUY THE AI STORY BEFORE YOU VERIFY THE MACHINE LAYER.

Evaluate AI claims, dependencies, evidence, operational control, vendor risk, and verification gaps before relying on a system or transaction.

[ COMMERCIAL SERVICE ]

Product and capability claims; model/provider dependence; proprietary versus replaceable components; data rights; cloud and compute dependencies; procurement and licensing constraints; audit logs; human control; continuity; security and governance representations; and evidence supporting material claims.

01

How R/IV approaches diligence

The work separates documented facts from company representations, independent evidence, analytic inference, and unresolved questions. Contradictions are retained. A missing record remains a missing record rather than being silently interpreted in the target's favor or against it.

02

Engagement path

For a single AI workflow, begin with the fixed-price Verification Sprint. Broader diligence involving a company, transaction, or multi-system environment is scoped as managed intelligence.

[ NEXT STEP ]

VERIFY BEFORE YOU EXPAND

Consequential findings remain human-reviewed and bounded to the admitted record.

[ SERVICE BOUNDARY ]

BOUNDED EVIDENCE.
NO FALSE CERTAINTY.

R/IV reports state what the reviewed record supports, conflicts with, or leaves unresolved. They are not legal, medical, accounting, investment, or regulatory advice unless separately contracted for that purpose.
