VCs don't wait for your data room to be ready. They move on to the next founder who already has the documents.

Due diligence is not what happens after you get a term sheet. It's what you prepare for in the months before you start fundraising. DDLab gives you a regional checklist across every folder a VC will open, so when they ask for something, your answer is "already here" rather than "we'll get back to you."

How it works

Work through 7 folders before investors ask.

1

Select your region

DDLab auto-detects your region from your onboarding answers. You can also toggle manually. India and US Delaware have different corporate documents, compliance requirements, and legal structures, so the checklists are tailored accordingly.

US Delaware68 items

Work through the 7 folders

Corporate documents, cap table and equity, financials, legal and compliance, IP and technology, team and HR, and customer and commercial. Each folder is independent so you can work through them in any order.

Check off items as you gather documents

Open any folder and tick off items as you gather them. DDLab saves your progress automatically. Come back any time to see which folders are complete and which still need work before your next investor meeting.

What's inside

A structured data room before any VC asks for one.

🌏
Two regions
India (59 items across 14 categories) and US Delaware C-Corp (68 items across 18 categories). Checklists are tailored to the actual documents each region requires.
📁
7 folders
Corporate, cap table, financials, legal, IP, team, and commercial. The same structure VCs use when they open a data room so your prep maps directly to their process.
Progress tracking
Check off items as you gather them. DDLab saves your progress and shows completion percentage per folder so you always know where the gaps are.
🔄
Region toggle
Auto-detected from onboarding, manually overridable. Your progress is saved separately for each region so you can maintain both if you have entities in both.
📦
ZIP download
Founder Pro users can download the structured checklist as a ZIP to share with lawyers, co-founders, or put directly into a Notion or Google Drive data room.
🔗
Links to CapLab
The cap table folder links to CapLab for your share register and round history, so you don't need to explain your structure twice.
