36 of 388 tools.

Allocate budget with CVAR constraint

Maximize expected portfolio return while keeping probability-weighted loss CVaR below a finance-owned tail-risk ceiling across aligned joint scenarios.

Constrained optimization

Audit budget constraint binding

Audit whether a claimed budget constraint genuinely blocks value after dependency-feasible portfolio reallocation, separating current-plan inefficiency from scarcity with scenario CVaR and a discrete budget shadow price.

Constrained optimization

Audit financing term sheet integrity

Audit startup financing terms as exact share, price, proceeds and ownership identities: include pre-money option-pool increases and converting instruments in the pricing denominator, keep secondary purchases out of company cash and post-money share creation, reconcile primary issuance, post-money equity value and reported investor ownership, and retain evidence failures and impossible fees or secondary sales.

Statistical audit & measurement

Audit fundraising pipeline integrity

Audit a fundraising pipeline as point-in-time evidence rather than CRM theater: reconstruct monotone stage events, terminal status and primary proceeds, retain open opportunities as censored, reject forecasts made after resolution, detect duplicate active investor accounts, and gate the portfolio on mature-forecast support, Brier loss and calibration gap.

Forecasting & survival

Audit technology diligence evidence integrity

Audit a frozen technology diligence case against buyer-declared system/domain/claim scope, management assertions and fresh, rights-cleared, independently reviewed point-in-time evidence.

Statistical audit & measurement

Audit value realization chain integrity

Audit one frozen aggregate cohort chain from eligible strategy scope through implementation, adoption, business outcome, monetization and cash collection, using whole-cohort bootstrap and simultaneous conversion, end-to-end, evidence and support gates.

Statistical audit & measurement

Calculate financing exit waterfall

Calculate a financing exit waterfall across coherent outcomes with debt and transaction costs, preferred seniority, equal-rank pro-rata shortfall, liquidation preferences, participating residual, iterative participation caps and endogenous class-by-class conversion; require a pure no-profitable-deviation conversion equilibrium, exact payout reconciliation and verified security/scenario evidence before reporting stakeholder payout, MOIC, annualized return and downside.

Statistical audit & measurement

Calculate risk adjusted npv

Discount aligned scenario cash-flow paths, expose positive-NPV probability and loss VaR/CVaR, then apply an explicit finance-owned CVaR penalty to test a risk-adjusted investment hurdle.

Decision analysis

Calculate strategy to cash conversion

Reconcile approved strategy value sequentially through implementation, adoption, outcome, monetization and collection under coherent scenarios, producing mutually exclusive stage leakage, gross and net cash conversion, reserve need, breach probability, CVaR and exact initiative tail contributions.

Decision analysis

Calculate venture milestone efficiency

Compare evidence-adjusted milestone progress and scenario value uplift per cash consumed, preserving efficiency, value, and downside as a Pareto frontier instead of one opaque portfolio-company score.

Constrained optimization

Calibrate business case forecasts

Calibrate positive business-case forecasts with chronological empirical-Bayes log-ratio correction, sparse-category shrinkage, proper-score validation, and interval-coverage gates.

Forecasting & survival

Construct deterministic project pareto frontier

Construct the exact practically nondominated frontier and successive Pareto layers across projects, products, vendors, or investments without hiding tradeoffs behind arbitrary score weights.

Statistical audit & measurement

Construct stochastic pareto frontier

Construct a stochastic Pareto frontier from aligned joint criterion scenarios using scenario-wise frontier membership and pairwise practical chance dominance rather than dominance of point estimates.

Statistical audit & measurement

Estimate cost of delay distribution

Translate probabilistic delivery delay into discounted contribution-value loss, permanent value decay, and governed penalties, including expected cost, tail cost, and the probability of material exposure.

Statistical audit & measurement

Estimate financing dilution scenarios

Estimate financing dilution with a scenario cap-table waterfall that solves pre-money option-pool top-ups and capped or discounted convertible claims before allocating post-money ownership.

Statistical audit & measurement

Estimate portfolio company execution beta

Estimate company sensitivity to an external portfolio execution factor using company regressions, random-effects heterogeneity, empirical-Bayes shrinkage, uncertainty intervals, and systematic variance shares.

Constrained optimization

Forecast acquisition technology integration economics

Forecast acquisition-technology integration time, cost, stranded cost, synergy realization and economic-shortfall CVaR from pooled lognormal history, dependency paths, finite capacity and shared disruption states.

Forecasting & survival

Forecast fundraising close and runway

Forecast whether enough primary capital closes before runway pressure by fitting empirical-Bayes age-state competing-risk hazards to advanced, closed, lost and right-censored stage episodes, then simulating every live opportunity under one common market scenario and an explicit burn-before-close cash convention.

Forecasting & survival

Optimize budgeted initiative portfolio

Select the highest expected-value initiative portfolio under cash and multi-resource budgets while enforcing dependencies and mutual exclusions across aligned business scenarios.

Constrained optimization

Optimize decision calendar

Schedule dependent strategic decisions as information arrives, balancing contingent action value, delay cost, portfolio tail risk, deadlines, precedence, and scarce decision capacity.

Constrained optimization

Optimize financing terms nash bargaining

Select financing terms through exact risk-adjusted Pareto and weighted Nash bargaining: evaluate full-cost founder and new-investor payoffs on identical exit scenarios, convert lower-tail payout into transparent certainty adjustments, enforce company cash, founder control, investor return, downside, evidence and individual-rationality constraints, remove dominated terms and maximize the weighted log product of surplus above governed disagreement values.

Constrained optimization

Optimize fundraising attention policy

Allocate the current fundraising attention epoch with age-aware controlled Markov arm values and an exact multiple-choice capacity knapsack: compare action versus passive continuation through later stages, price founder distraction and action cost, expose a dynamic attention index, and disclose that independently relaxed future capacity is not a globally certified multi-period schedule.

Markov & state-space control

Optimize multi period capital allocation

Allocate indivisible project funding schedules across every period budget while respecting dependencies, exclusions, uncertain terminal value, discounting, and a retain-capital baseline.

Constrained optimization

Optimize post merger technology integration portfolio

Choose retain, bridge, migrate, integrate or retire for every target capability while pricing delayed synergy, retained standalone value, Beta-binomial failures, unique platform loss, resources, budget and CVaR.

Constrained optimization

Optimize product mix

Optimize one discrete quantity option per product across a shared cash budget and multiple capacity pools using aligned contribution scenarios, expected value, CVaR downside, and an explicit exact or heuristic solver boundary.

Constrained optimization

Optimize risk mitigation portfolio

Select a dependency- and exclusion-feasible mitigation portfolio that maximizes expected net loss avoided within budget and an optional residual-CVaR ceiling.

Constrained optimization

Optimize roadmap real options

Optimize continue, defer, abandon and expand decisions across staged initiatives using Bellman recursion and current capital rationing.

Constrained optimization

Optimize shared platform investment

Choose a shared-platform option and adopter coalition under budget, capacity, joint scenarios, pairwise network value, CVaR, and individually rational Shapley-informed cost allocation.

Network & dependency analysis

Optimize value realization recovery portfolio

Choose a budgeted, capacity-feasible portfolio of stage-specific value-recovery interventions under coherent scenarios, combining each action as diminishing closure of its remaining gap while preserving cross-stage strategic complementarity, dependencies, exclusions, positive-value probability, CVaR and exact-or-disclosed beam search.

Constrained optimization

Rank initiatives evidence adjusted value

Rank initiatives using an explicit mixture of finance-approved value scenarios and a skeptical prior weighted by backtested evidence reliability, with downside and CVaR gates.

Forecasting & survival

Rank portfolio companies by risk adjusted progress

Rank stage-comparable portfolio companies by evidence-shrunk milestone value minus a CVaR downside penalty per cash consumed, with weak evidence explicitly unranked.

Constrained optimization

Score investor execution vitals

Give startup investors an evidence-shrunk execution signal spanning milestones, runway, reliability, and resilience.

Forecasting & survival

Simulate startup financing survival

Simulate dependency-gated milestone execution, correlated fundraising conditions, event-timed burn and insolvency to quantify survival, financing dependence, and rescue capital.

Forecasting & survival

Solve distributionally robust product portfolio

Solve a budgeted product portfolio under ambiguity in scenario probabilities, acyclic dependencies, mutually exclusive choices, and governed pairwise cannibalization or synergy using a total-variation uncertainty set.

Constrained optimization

Stress test investment memo assumptions

Stress an investment memo's local value model by shrinking weak claims toward declared adverse values, pricing pairwise nonlinear interactions, and finding the first failure fraction along a joint adverse path.

Decision analysis

Value next round option

Value raising now versus delaying for a milestone by simulating posterior milestone success, bridge-capacity failure, conditional future dilution, terminal stakeholder value, and lower-tail delay loss.
