Risk register
R-001: Financial quality, revenue and retention are not public
No public audited financials, revenue/ARR, retention, churn, gross margin, cash, debt, burn or forecast model were available for Alloy.
Diligence request: Request audited financials, management KPI pack, cohort retention, customer/revenue bridge, cash/debt schedule and forecast model.
R-002: Headline valuation may not reflect current financing economics
Alloy has a public $1.55B unicorn-list valuation, but current valuation bridge, liquidation preferences, secondary-market marks, option pool and debt stack are private.
Diligence request: Request cap table, financing documents, current 409A, option plan, SAFE/note/debt schedule and liquidation preference waterfall.
R-006: Legal, regulatory, privacy and IP matters require counsel review
Alloy supports regulated financial-services compliance workflows and processes sensitive identity data, creating privacy, data-rights and vendor-risk exposure.
Diligence request: Request counsel disclosure schedule, litigation search, regulatory correspondence, privacy/security reports, IP assignments and material contracts.
R-003: Customer concentration, retention and satisfaction are unknown
Public customer/logo/app evidence for Alloy does not disclose revenue concentration, active paying cohorts, renewal health, support burden, churn or expansion.
Diligence request: Request top customer/cohort economics, contracts, renewals, churn/NRR cohorts, support/complaint metrics and independent references.
R-004: Competitive and pricing pressure
Identity, KYC, KYB, AML and fraud orchestration markets are crowded, with partner-overlap and competitor-overlap risks.
Diligence request: Request win/loss analysis, competitive quote set, pricing history, discount waterfall and market-share/cohort trends.
R-007: Third-party platform, data, supplier or ecosystem dependence
The product depends on third-party data providers, verification partners and financial-institution workflow integrations.
Diligence request: Request top supplier/partner contracts, SLAs, minimums, data rights, concentration analysis and contingency plans.
R-005: Product, reliability and technical-performance evidence is incomplete
Fraud model performance, false-positive rates, data quality, uptime and explainability cannot be verified from marketing pages.
Diligence request: Request roadmap, incident register, uptime/reliability metrics, architecture review, technical-debt backlog and security test results.
R-008: Management depth, retention and incentives are not public
Current executive roster, retention, incentive alignment and regulated-control ownership were not fully public in the reviewed evidence.
Diligence request: Request org chart, HRIS export, employment agreements, option grants, compensation, attrition data and management references.
