AI adversarial due diligence for startup investing
Don't trust the pitch deck. Trust the audit.
Five adversarial agents interrogate every claim. Founder integrity scoring. Document authenticity analysis. Forensic financial reconstruction. Registry, tax and regulatory history checks are rolling out to institutional tiers. Zero-Inference protocol: missing data is reported as missing, never inferred.
ADVERSARIAL TENSION. LIVE SIGNAL PROCESSING
Mention all. Miss none.
10 Risk Dimensions. 5 Adversarial Agents. Zero Comfort.
If you've lost capital to any of these, you already know why this matters.
Team & Founder Risk
Founder-market misfit, key-person dependency, co-founder conflict, leadership gaps
Key-person dependency is the #1 undetected failure mode in seed-stage deals.
Market Validity
TAM inflation, adoption friction, timing mismatch, competitive saturation
TAM inflation detected in 61% of evaluated decks. Zurvek corrects it.
Product & Tech
Technical debt, build-vs-buy fragility, no defensible IP, scalability ceilings
No filed patent + outsourced core logic = zero IP score. Non-negotiable.
Financial Health
Burn rate unsustainability, revenue-expense contradiction, margin erosion
Real revenue vs. reported revenue discrepancy flags a Pf score above 0.6.
Valuation Fairness
Overvaluation vs. sector benchmarks, dilution vulnerability, cap table red flags
At 50x revenue multiples, a 10% fraud probability drops score by 18 points.
Execution Risk
Delivery compression, hiring bottlenecks, go-to-market failure patterns
Delivery timelines compress 3x under capital pressure. Zurvek models the gap.
Legal & Compliance
Regulatory exposure, IP ownership gaps, pending litigation signals
Undisclosed IP assignment gaps trigger automatic compliance flags.
Exit Pathway Risk
No viable acquirer landscape, IPO readiness gaps, liquidity timeline mismatch
Missing acquirer thesis = horizon scored 'indefinite', penalized in final Vₛ.
Cognitive Bias Alert
Confirmation bias in due diligence, halo effect, anchoring on vanity metrics
Anchoring, halo effect, and confirmation bias inflate 73% of failed deals.
Macro & ESG Exposure
Geopolitical sensitivity, supply chain fragility, ESG compliance gaps
Geopolitical sensitivity triggers mandatory ELEVATED status if omitted.

CENTRA intelligence showcase
Centra. Institutional Q&A
The verdict answers what the deck conceals.
After every evaluation, Centra interrogates the gaps, what agents couldn't verify, what dark data absences mean, and what changes before you write the check.
Why was the MRR figure flagged as unverifiable?
The deck states Current MRR of ₹8,200. This figure is internally contradicted by a January 2023 date stamp on the same financial page, placing it over three years in the past. No updated revenue statement is provided anywhere in the document.
'Current MRR: ₹8,200', no date anchor on this figure.
'Financials as of January 2023', three year lag confirmed.
'Seed round: April 2025', this is a 2026 raise. The temporal contradiction is critical.
CRITICAL: Traction claim cannot be underwritten from available documents.
No verifiable current revenue exists in this document. Any valuation model built on this MRR figure carries an unquantified staleness risk. This is not a minor gap, it is a due diligence blocker.
Request: Last 6 months GST filings or bank statements before proceeding to term sheet.
"Your deck states MRR of ₹47L. Our unit economics implies a CAC of ₹2.1L at your claimed conversion rate. Walk us through one complete customer acquisition cycle, actuals only."
