Questions about the check
Do I need to upload anything for the fit check?
No. The check only uses your answers. We never ask for your data, and nothing in the check touches your systems.
What happens to my fit check answers?
Your fit check answers stay in your browser until you hit send. Then Matt reads them so he can reply.
Can a small company license its records?
A small company can license its records when it meets a partner's minimum. Each partner sets its own, usually a headcount and years in operation, and acceptance depends on its own review and current demand. A company under a partner's minimum should expect a no from that partner.
How does Vaultfish make money?
The fit check, a discovery call, tools, guides and introductions are free to your company. Managed readiness is optional, scoped and quoted in writing before you pay. Partners may pay us a referral fee if a company we introduce goes ahead with them. We never take a percentage of your deal, and we do not negotiate for you.
Is the fit check legal advice?
No. We gather facts and checklists and never judge a specific contract. That call belongs to your lawyer.
How does the fit check score work?
Five of the seven answers are scored: company size, years of records, systems, outcome linkage and exportability. The personal-data answer takes points away. The rights and regulated-data answers add no points and work as gates that hide any range. This is a preliminary screen based on your answers. It does not establish licensing rights, buyer acceptance or a valuation. The methodology page shows every number.
