Assemble Regulatory and Technical Inputs
The founder collects and organises all existing legal opinions, regulatory mappings, data flow diagrams, and technical architecture documents. They audit current customer onboarding flows, transaction paths, and data retention policies to identify integration points.
Gathering these inputs establishes an empirical baseline of the venture's current regulatory posture and technical readiness. It prevents duplicated effort and ensures decisions are grounded in actual technical realities rather than assumptions.
A curated collection of verified documentation, including system data flows, legal counsel advice, and existing API specifications. The founder must demonstrate that all inputs have been validated for accuracy and currency.
