Beyond pitch-deck scoring: evidence, readiness and investor relevance.
The percentages below are assessment weights — not your company score. They show how much each dimension contributes to the CHODAT readiness framework and where founders should focus evidence-building effort.
Framework weighting
100% of the readiness model, explained at a glance.
Weight shows importance. Your actual readiness score is calculated separately from the quality and completeness of evidence submitted in the governed assessment.
Common weaknessStrong biographies without evidence that the team can execute the next stage of the plan.

Platform scope — CHODAT INVEST provides software, information and business dossier preparation support.
The platform does not provide investment, financial, accounting, tax or legal advice, hold investment funds, or guarantee funding, returns or transaction completion. Case-specific professional advice requires an independent qualified provider.
Verification refers only to the identity, authority or documents actually checked and recorded. Email OTP verifies email control only. KYC/KYB, membership and NDA do not certify solvency, investment quality, legal compliance or returns.
Membership and service fees pay for the agreed software access or listed deliverables; they are not investment capital or deposits for an investment. Capital-receipt evidence records funds received by the business, separately from CHODAT service payments. A success-fee estimate is not a mandate or an invoice; its actual scope and provider require separate review.
AI organizes supplied information, explains general concepts and suggests partner-search criteria. Readiness scores measure dossier completeness; matching scores reflect recorded criteria, not investment recommendations, probability of funding or verified investor interest.

Yes. The business pathway can support growth capital, strategic capital, minority or majority transactions, M&A preparation and restructuring depending on the company situation.
