Produces a strategic risk matrix, architecture scorecard, and ranked investment priorities. Use when you need a technical strategy review, architecture assessment, scaling readiness check, tech debt audit, engineering velocity evaluation, Series A technical due diligence, or CTO-level briefing before a board meeting or fundraise.
