SaaS Business Health Diagnostic vs Contract Review

Two business operations skills. Which one fits your job? Side-by-side below.

The short version

SaaS Business Health Diagnostic

By Dean Peters (PM)

Diagnose your SaaS business health, spot red flags, and prioritize what to fix first.

Contract Review

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

Flag risky clauses, missing protections, and negotiation points in any legal agreement.

What each one does

SaaS Business Health Diagnostic

  • Assesses business health across four dimensions: growth & retention, unit economics, capital efficiency, and strategic position
  • Identifies red flags and categorizes them by urgency (critical, high priority, medium priority)
  • Applies stage-specific benchmarks so early-stage businesses aren't judged by scale-stage standards
  • Delivers a comprehensive scorecard with clear, prioritized action items
  • Connects metrics together to reveal systemic issues (e.g., strong growth masking poor unit economics)

Contract Review

  • Reads any contract and produces a structured review with risk rating and key terms summary
  • Flags unusual or risky clauses with plain English explanations of what they mean
  • Identifies missing protections that should normally be in this type of agreement
  • Recommends specific actions for each clause (negotiate, accept, seek legal advice, or query)
  • Translates legal jargon into a summary anyone can understand

When to pick each one

Reach for SaaS Business Health Diagnostic when…

  • You're preparing for a board meeting or investor update and need a complete business health snapshot
  • You suspect problems but can't pinpoint whether it's growth, retention, economics, or burn
  • You're doing a quarterly business review and want to prioritize improvement areas
  • You're fundraising and need to know your numbers inside-out before pitching
  • A new executive is joining and needs to understand where the business stands

Reach for Contract Review when…

  • You're about to sign a SaaS agreement, NDA, employment contract, or supplier deal
  • You need to understand what a contract actually says before sending it to a lawyer
  • You want to spot red flags or missing clauses before negotiations start
  • You're a founder or operator reviewing agreements without in-house legal support
