Ensuring a seamless scaling through Technology Due Diligence
In preparation for its next stage of scaling, Identi conducted a Technical Due Diligence (TDD) to assess potential risks that could hinder growth and identify opportunities to accelerate expansion. Cognitive Creators’ 360º TDD approach provided a comprehensive audit of API performance across internal and external systems, cloud infrastructure efficiency, and overall data strategy and scalability.
Using a structured risk assessment framework, findings were categorised by urgency and impact—from critical growth blockers to long-term reliability improvements. These insights enabled Identi to prioritise remediation efforts, ensuring technology investments aligned with business growth and operational excellence.

Validating ROI before a strategic investment decision through Digital Due Diligence
Alphavet, a leader in the B2B pet care segment, sought to expand into the B2C market either by acquiring a company or by entering with a newly created brand. Cognitive Creators conducted a Digital Due Diligence to assess potential acquisition targets and to model the cost of building the new B2C brand from scratch, ensuring Alphavet made an informed investment decision.
Our evaluation analyzed the digital performance, market positioning, and growth potential of multiple brands. Scenario modeling and our performance scoring revealed the most suitable M&A target and showed how acquiring an established digital-first brand would drive 3x faster market penetration and higher ROI compared to building a new B2C presence from the ground. The findings validated the acquisition, showcasing how a data-driven approach can de-risk investments and accelerate growth.
