A market-leading Nordic SaaS provider needed its platform, security and AI capabilities scrutinised ahead of a strategic acquisition. Netlight ran a two-phase technical due diligence, from an outside-in review to a deep dive into architecture and infrastructure with inside access. The assessment validated platform maturity and AI-driven innovation, enabling the largest M&A transaction in Europe in Q2 2025.
Challenge
The key challenge was to assess the complexity of the architecture under increasing demands for scalability, performance, and security. At the same time, the company needed to demonstrate a strong cybersecurity posture and regulatory compliance, while exploring how proprietary data could fuel AI-driven automation to strengthen its competitive advantage.
Solution
Netlight conducted the due diligence in a two-phased approach. The first phase was an outside-in review, during which Netlight gathered insights into the platform's performance, scalability, and user experience by assessing critical user flows and leveraging expert networks. The second phase, with inside access, involved a deep dive into the technical architecture, infrastructure, and security setup. This allowed the team to validate hypotheses, uncover potential risks, and evaluate how well the platform was positioned to support future growth and AI-driven innovation.
Impact
The client is a market-leading SaaS provider in the Nordics. Its platform, architecture and AI moat were the focus of this technical due diligence ahead of a strategic acquisition.
