Red Flags Scanner

What problem does it solve?

Systematically scan an investment opportunity for warning signals across five categories: Integrity/Consistency, Team, Market, Traction, and Legal/Compliance. Use this skill when building a risk register for a deal, scanning founder materials for internal contradictions, running external background checks on founders and companies, checking corporate hygiene signals, producing a ranked flag table with severity and recommended validation steps, or preparing the risk input for an IC memo.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured flag discovery: identify and label flags across all five categories with evidence, severity, and confidence.
• Evidence-backed prioritization: generate a ranked risk table with recommended next steps for validation.
• Cross-source pattern detection: surface multi-flag patterns that indicate underlying concerns.
• Escalation guidance: provide concrete questions and actions for internal or external review.
