DueCap Investment Screening Briefs for Active Investors

DueCap helps investors conduct a focused first review of startup opportunities that deserve serious attention.


When an opportunity warrants a closer look, DueCap turns the available pitch deck, financial information, and supporting documents into a structured Investment Screening Brief. It brings the business, key signals, missing information, and questions into one clear view, preparing the investor for a more informed first conversation with the founder.


DueCap does not score companies, recommend investments, or replace investor judgment. It helps investors see what is known, what remains unresolved, and what deserves closer attention.

What You Receive

Every DueCap review produces three connected deliverables.

Investment Screening Brief

A concise, evidence-based view of the opportunity, including:

  • Executive Snapshot
  • Business Overview
  • Financial Snapshot
  • Key Business Signals
  • Key Financial Signals
  • Missing Information

Questions Before Investing


A prioritized set of questions arising from the evidence, inconsistencies, assumptions, and information gaps identified during the review.

Founder Interview Guide


A structured agenda that turns those questions into a more focused and productive first conversation with the founder.


Together, these deliverables help you understand the opportunity, identify what remains unresolved, and prioritize what to address next.
