01 The story

An enterprise-value education engine for founders. The assessment walks seven tiers of business maturity, each capability defined with why it matters, what good looks like, and what to do next. The tool suite makes the math tangible: an EV simulator, a founder dependence meter, concentration risk, recurring revenue uplift, an AI-native leverage calculator, and a 90-day planner. Every multiple shown is a labeled illustrative band, never a promise, and the whole thing is config-driven so the methodology can evolve without a rebuild.

02 What went into it

  • Seven-tier assessment with rubric-scored open responses
  • Ten-tool suite sharing one scoring engine
  • Multiple-driver model with explicit conservative bands
  • Email-gated report generation
  • Config-driven content: methodology changes are data changes
