Investors who buy a software company inherit its technology, its risks and its people, yet a management presentation rarely shows any of them clearly. This template sets out a technical review in nine pages: the summary and recommendation, architecture, code quality, team, security, scalability and red flags. Each finding states what was seen, how serious it is, what it costs to fix and how confident the reviewer is.

The sample reviews the fictional Kingfisher Row Labs, with a $640k cost to fix before close, a payments queue that fails under peak load and two engineers holding most of the core code. Replace the target description, the evidence, the ratings and the cost estimates with your own, then state the recommendation and the conditions you would attach.
