SaaS Business Health Diagnostic

By Dean Peters (PM)

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

Legal Brief

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

Draft structured legal memos, case summaries, and argument outlines using IRAC format.

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)

Legal Brief

• Creates legal memos, case summaries, argument outlines, and letters before action
• Structures documents using IRAC format with issues, rules, application, and conclusions
• Flags disputed facts and areas requiring additional legal research
• Includes appropriate disclaimers and professional privilege headers
• Adapts to different jurisdictions including England & Wales, US, and EU
