Due diligence, rapid risk assessment, and compliance lift-and-shift for portfolio companies. We move at PE speed — from LOI to close to integration, with institutional-quality risk advisory that helps protect asset value.

HIPAA/HITECH compliance, BAA management, and clinical AI governance for health systems, specialty practices, and third-party administrators. We understand the regulatory environment and the operational constraints of healthcare technology.

PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and financial services compliance for payment processors, lending platforms, and financial data companies. We understand both the technical and regulatory landscape facing fintech operators.

AI governance, model risk management, and security assessment for companies building or deploying AI systems. We help AI-native companies build governance programs that match the pace of their development.
