Where does execution break under scale — before capital commits.
Deploy scaling capital
Deploy fix capital (gated)
Do not deploy
Go · Fix · Pass —
before capital commits
DPI
On paper: ~1.7× TVPI
Paper value ≠ cash returned
missed winners
DPI leaks through picked
failures and missed fixes
The problem isn’t the deal.
It’s what happens after capital goes in.
0.26× DPI · On paper: ~1.7× TVPI
Execution risk is missing capability before scale.
Capital exposes it under load.
Without execution validation,
DPI loss is structural.
The system detects execution risk.
Humans validate reality.
Traditional DD ends in invest or decline.
ClimeNow DD⁺ adds a third path:
Go · Fix · Pass.
Capital decision compression.
capital outcomes
Execution risk verdict
Go · Fix · Pass
+ scaled
Execution scaled under load
The real risk isn’t missing the next winner.
It’s funding execution gaps at scale.
An IC decision is not “Is this a good company?”
It’s whether capital reduces execution risk — or amplifies it.
ClimateTech is not SaaS.
Regulation, hardware, and ecosystem constraints scale with capital.
