About the Free Diagnostic
The Free Diagnostic is a conversation-based structural review for founders running a US company — usually a single-member LLC — from outside the US. It maps your setup across four dimensions: Money (how income moves), Entity (what legally exists and where), Tax (which jurisdictions have a claim), and Accountability (what you can document when asked). The result is a structured risk report, free, with no paid tier behind it.
How it works
- You describe your setup in plain language — where you live, where the business is registered (if anywhere), and where your customers or income come from.
- The system walks through 18 structural signals across the four dimensions, built on the META framework. The question flow is deterministic: the same setup produces the same risk map. AI is used to understand your answers, not to make the judgments.
- You get a structured report: severity-mapped findings, what each pattern indicates, and — just as deliberately — which parts of your structure remain unclear.
What it deliberately does not do
The diagnostic is a visibility tool, not an advice engine. It does not tell you what to do, sell you a fix, or substitute for a licensed professional. It surfaces where the structural risk sits, so that a conversation with your CPA or lawyer starts from a map instead of a blank page. When something is unknown, the report says unknown — silence is treated as a signal, not papered over.
