Due Diligence Desk
Attest Dojo · Paul Sully — AIpreneur
Osaka, Japan · worldwide by email · invoice in JPY · bank / Square / NOWPayments crypto (Attest services) · tax included
Scoped, source-backed investigation for go/kill decisions on a vendor, agent, or deal. The result metric is hours and days saved: a scoped, source-graded handoff instead of open-ended research burn. No fake client logos. No invented EBIT %.
- Hours saved deciding go / kill
- Source-graded findings with citations
- What was checked and what was not, in writing
Time saved
Stop the research tax. Keep a record.
Endless tabs without a handoff is a time tax. Due Diligence stops the burn and returns a scoped, source-graded memo you can act on: go, kill, or ask the next hard question. Hours recovered is the result. Not theater.
Simple demo · your numbers, not a client claim
Hours toward a decision with a record: 8 saved vs open-ended burn (your inputs).
Illustrative math only. Real scope and price are agreed by email before work starts.
Time tax
Honest waste calculator (optional).
Quiet agent failures also burn calendar. Rough yen cost of that tax, compared to a Sprint band of ¥300,000–¥600,000. Not a promise that Sprint “pays for itself” in X weeks. A framing tool.
Minutes × failures/week × yen/hour
About ¥288,000 / month of time tax at your inputs. Sprint band: ¥300,000–¥600,000 (tax included).
The work
Scoped investigation with a record.
Due Diligence research is scoped work for decisions that need a record. We grade sources, separate claim from inference, and say what is still unknown. Intake is email only. Scope, price, and what we will and will not do are agreed before work starts.
- Scope · what we will and will not cover, and which records we can reach
- Work · registry and source checks with citations, sanctions in the subject's own language
- Handoff · a written pack that states what was checked and what was not
The evidence
What you can check in a pack.
Eight things about our packs that you can verify yourself. Each one is a promise about the record we leave, not a claim about our methods.
Evidence 01
Unverified findings do not ship.
Every pack passes a mandatory verification gate before it can be delivered. A claim that cannot be checked is refused, or labeled as unverified. It is never softened into a guess.
You see it in: the verification result on the pack cover, and findings held back until they check out.
Evidence 02
Findings are checked against their source before they harden.
Claims are matched back to the document they came from and re-checked before they are labeled established. Anything that cannot be re-checked stays a working note.
You see it in: the citation attached to each finding.
Evidence 03
Evidence carries fingerprints and a chain of custody.
Every captured document is fingerprinted the moment it is taken. A pack can show what was seen, when it was captured, and where it came from.
You see it in: the chain of custody page in every pack.
Evidence 04
Your matter stays under our control.
Case files, evidence, and pack contents are not sent to public AI services and are not published anywhere. What we gather for you stays with the engagement.
You see it in: the handling and privacy note in the engagement letter and in the pack.
Evidence 05
Names are matched and entities are read in the subject's own language and script, starting with Japanese, Spanish, and Filipino forms.
The sanctions check was tested against Japanese-name variants (kanji and kana) and against Filipino name forms: the ng̃ spelling, ñ, the y/i conjunction, name particles, reduplication, and local company suffixes. Entity recognition was tested on official Spanish pages and reads person and organization names in the subject's own language.
You see it in: the sanctions and entity sections, which cover Japanese, Spanish, and Filipino name forms instead of skipping them.
Evidence 06
Every pack states what was checked and what was not.
Coverage is reported honestly: what was found, what was not searched, and where paid or official portal access is still needed to go further.
You see it in: the "what we checked" section, which reads as gaps you can act on, not as prose.
Evidence 07
Deep work tracks every claim in a ledger.
In deeper engagements, each claim carries its source, its status, and when it was verified. Nothing is silently promoted from working view to established.
You see it in: the claim ledger and source grading in deeper engagement packs.
Evidence 08
Thoroughness is measured, not claimed.
Screens are scored against known-answer benchmarks, with precision and coverage recorded in a results log. The word "thorough" is earned by a number, not by an adjective.
You see it in: the documented quality discipline behind every screen.
What we do not claim
Clear boundaries.
We do not claim the expensive weeks away. Legal opinion, quality of earnings, and audit-style assurance stay with the specialists who own those lanes. Where a matter needs licensed databases, court dockets, or local counsel, we add them for that matter, and the pack says so.
Screen and due diligence findings are support for decisions, not legal advice and not an audit opinion.
How it starts
Three steps. No sales funnel.
- Email staff.duediligence@attestdojo.com with the entity or matter and the decision you are trying to make, and the desk replies with scope and price
- We agree scope, price, and what we will and will not do, by email (engagement letter + conflict check)
- If it fits, work starts. You receive a written pack that states what was checked and what was not
Payment
Scope and price by email first.
Due Diligence fees are agreed by email for the scoped matter. No public fixed price band on this desk. After agreement: email invoice, Square per-client invoice, bank transfer, or NOWPayments crypto. Crypto is for Attest Dojo services (this desk), not CyberKaze LIVE.
Public crypto buttons appear only if a DD retainer link is published. Otherwise staff sends a one-off NOWPayments invoice after scope agreement. Separate merchant from CyberKaze product checkout.
