if u need to do DD at seed stage bro just call me up i offer vibe checks as a service

few understand that this is also true for large private equity deals

Charlie I now consume rare dolphin amino acids daily at much personal cost because of two texts from you. Dilligence doesn’t exist in any aspect of life

And still- The motivation for a deep DD for seed stage startups, has to do with "the day after" process, within the VC, in case failure. A day after a Startup fails, the investors check whether their 'risk management' process was done thoroughly before the investment was made

It is called CYA. But seriously most startups fail for many reasons. Lack of PMF. No growth hacking strategy/implementation. No plan. Team and/or execution problems. Attempting to de-risk these factors during DD is often futile.
