Run · Legal Health Check
What's missing, off, or next?
A useful startup legal health check should read the company record it actually has, surface missing evidence or inconsistencies, and route the founder to the next legal action—not just return a questionnaire score.
Results are limited by supported document types, connected records and the checks configured in the product. A missing document is not automatically a legal defect.
Direct answer
Don't score the founder. Check the record.
The differentiated job is to compare the available signed record, ownership state and supported workflow dependencies, then show concrete exceptions. “Missing,” “Off” and “Next” are diagnostic states, not universal legal conclusions.
Diagnostic proof
Three kinds of exception. Three different next moves.
- Executed contractor IP assignment not foundMissing
- Cap table and founder-stock evidence differOff
- Requested option grant still needs approval pathNext
A useful health check routes each exception to the underlying legal workflow instead of returning only a score.
Coverage
Route company-state issues to the right legal pillar.
Formation + IP
Organizational evidence, founder ownership and supported IP records.
Equity
Plans, grants, pricing support, approvals and tax-sensitive follow-up where supported.
Cap table
Ownership summaries compared to available legal evidence.
Hiring
Worker agreements, IP and connected equity routes.
Fundraising
Financing instruments, rights and company-state dependencies.
Commercial
Supported customer/vendor agreements and continuing commitments.
What happens after the check
Exceptions should become workflows.
Founder questions
Useful diagnostics are precise about what they do not know.
What does the legal health check review?
The legal health check reviews supported company records available to Solvd across formation, equity, ownership, financing, hiring and commercial work. Coverage depends on connected records and the checks configured in the product.
Is this a legal audit?
No broad assurance should be implied. It is a company-state diagnostic over the records and rules the product is configured to check, with exceptions qualified by source coverage and legal-review level.
What does “Missing” mean?
Expected or relevant evidence was not found in the records available to the check. It does not necessarily prove the underlying legal act never occurred.
What does “Off” mean?
Two available records appear inconsistent—for example, an ownership summary and the executed evidence behind it. The mismatch should be investigated before either side is treated as authoritative.
What does “Next” mean?
A known workflow dependency, follow-up or future action has been surfaced from the current company state. Universal deadline monitoring should not be promised unless that exact capability is verified.
