Use these frameworks when introducing VIU Capital™ to institutional prospects.
01
When They Ask "What Is It?"
It is a diagnostic engine that produces a bankability score — think of it as a financial fingerprint for any company, public or private.
It uses six pillars — profitability, valuation, cash flow, balance sheet, risk, and growth — each with disclosed metrics and weights.
It is deterministic — the same inputs always produce the same score. No opinion, no interpretation, no conflict of interest.
"It produces verdicts, not opinions. That is what a credit committee needs."
02
When They Ask "How Is It Different?"
It is the only platform that scores private companies under the same methodology as public ones — no ticker required.
It shows three scenarios simultaneously — where the company is today, where it was, and where it will be after the capital raise.
Every diagnostic is cryptographically timestamped — you can prove to any counterparty exactly when the analysis was performed.
"ChatGPT independently described VIU as transparent and audit-ready — without being prompted."
03
When They Ask "Who Is It For?"
Lenders evaluating private credit mandates — Engine B tells them exactly how much debt the issuer can absorb before bankability collapses.
Private equity firms with portfolio companies seeking capital raises — the three-scenario framework shows the optimal raise structure.
DFI and institutional investors in Africa corridor, trade finance, and infrastructure — where single-obligor limits and surety bonds require defensible diagnostics.
"If your client needs a lender to trust their numbers, VIU gives them proof."
04
When They Ask "What Does It Cost?"
Engine B engagement starts at USD $10,000 for a standard diagnostic — full tearsheet, three scenarios, DSCR validation, cryptographic reference.
Monthly subscription tiers from USD $299 (professional) to USD $20,000 (DFI institutional) — full pricing at theviuinc.com/pricing/.
A single diagnostic that prevents one bad capital raise decision recovers its cost by a factor of 100. That is the ROI conversation.
"The question is not what the diagnostic costs. It is what a wrong lending decision costs."
05
When They Ask "Can I See Proof?"
CS-2026-001: A private equity client scored 69.14 STRONG. Two independent methods — Engine B and a manual assessment — produced identical conclusions three months apart.
The cryptographic reference VIU-2026-05-03_13-18-19-EA7BE7A306 is stored in the VIU mandate ledger at api.theviuinc.ca — verifiable by any counterparty.
ChatGPT independently validated the methodology as transparent and audit-ready after reading the published case study — no prompting required.
"Here is the hash. Here is the timestamp. Here is the score. That is the proof."
06
When They Ask "What Happens Next?"
Your prospect provides financial statements. VIU Advisory processes the diagnostic under the Canonical Data Protocol. Results delivered in 18–21 business days.
The diagnostic includes a bankability ceiling analysis — the precise raise amount that preserves the issuer's zone — and a phased capital strategy if the full amount is not yet achievable.
The cryptographic reference is embedded in every deliverable — the lender receives not just the score but proof of when and how it was produced.
"Introduce them to VIU. VIU handles everything from there."
