Brandon Shelton, Founder and Managing Partner of Task Force X Capital, needed to evaluate the technical soundness of potential investments in Veteran-led technology startups.
His team had financial and legal expertise in-house but lacked technical evaluation capabilities — we filled that gap with hands-on code review plus follow-on support for portfolio companies.
As an investor assessing ideas and strategy, Shelton acknowledged his limitations: 'I couldn't tell you if the technology is scalable. I couldn't tell you what kind of code base it's written on.'
He sought a partner who could thoroughly examine software and deliver findings in accessible, non-technical language.
I wanted a team that would test our software thoroughly, pinpoint weaknesses, and deliver practical insights we could act on. That is exactly what they did, giving us clarity and confidence in every iteration.
We designed a technology-assessment scorecard analyzing each potential investment across multiple dimensions: code quality, priority fixes, future development roadmap, and overall development-approach evaluation.
The solution included comprehensive reports prioritizing clarity and readability, plus direct meetings with company founders to discuss findings transparently.

Findings written in accessible, non-technical language and walked through with founders in live working sessions.
