All features

Due Diligence

Structured DD request lists, centralized Q&A, document review, and automated checklists — all inside the deal room.

Why this matters

The old way

Spreadsheets and email for DD tracking

Due diligence runs on giant spreadsheet matrices, email threads for Q&A, and shared folders with no access tracking. Nothing is centralized, nothing is auditable.

  • DD request lists live in spreadsheets that go stale immediately
  • Q&A buried in email chains — impossible to track resolution status
  • No way to see which documents have been reviewed or approved
  • No visibility into overall DD progress across workstreams

The Lawden way

Structured DD with full visibility

Every deal gets a structured due diligence tracker. Groups and items with assignees, reviewers, linked documents, and weighted progress. Q&A lives in the same room — organized, categorized, and auditable.

  • Organized DD groups: Financial, Legal, Tax, IP, Commercial — per deal type
  • Items with assignees, reviewers, due dates, and status tracking
  • Linked documents: each DD item connects to the relevant uploaded file
  • Centralized Q&A module with categories, internal/external visibility
  • Weighted progress: see exactly how far along each workstream is
