Diligence, modelling, development and M&A. One data center brain.

Whether you're developing a site, buying a part-built asset to finish, or acquiring a stabilized one, Megawatt IQ runs the diligence through 200+ weighted items, models the build or the cap-rate valuation, and drives the deal — surfacing the gaps, the red flags and whether it pays, live as you answer.

Who it's for

One brain. Every side of the deal.

Sell-side or buy-side, capital or counterparty — everyone runs the same diligence from a different angle. Megawatt IQ gives each of them the same rigor.

Developers

Front-load every gap

Walk into a capital raise knowing exactly what you'll be asked — and having an answer. Close the lacunae before the market finds them.

Equity & sponsors

Underwrite with confidence

A DD score that traces to every weighted answer and gate. Know precisely where the deal is exposed before the IC.

Lenders & infra credit

Test bankability first

Surface the red flags that move a credit decision — indicative-only power, unsigned ESAs, DSCR fragility — before you commit debt.

Asset acquirers and M&A

Buy with eyes open

Run acquisition diligence on a stabilized asset — rent roll, WALT, change-of-control consents, on-supply legality — value it on a going-in cap rate with an institutional or ABS take-out, and export a one-page deal summary for the IC.

Tenants

Will it actually deliver?

Pressure-test power, commissioning and operations before you sign for capacity. Know the facility behind the brochure.

Neoclouds

Secure capacity, eyes open

Read the power timeline and grid risk that decide whether your GPUs come online on schedule — or slip two phases.

Hyperscalers

Standardize site selection

One defensible framework for BTS and site diligence across every region and jurisdiction your team evaluates.

Permitting authorities

Assess consistently

Evaluate applications against one transparent, weighted standard — with the local regime already built in.

Professional advisors

Run it for clients

Structure diligence end-to-end, then export a per-discipline DD report — Legal, Commercial (CDD), Financial (FDD), Technical, ESG, Insurance or Tax — to hand each adviser their slice, plus a tailored questionnaire and risk report in a click.

The risk engine

Not a checklist. A weighted model that knows what's late.

Every item carries an intrinsic importance and a due-by phase gate — so severity escalates the longer a critical point stays unresolved.

RAG heatmap

All 21 workstreams scored from your live answers — red on any high flag or two critical gaps.

DD confidence score

A single 0–100 read. Projects start red and earn green by closing the right things at the right time.

Lacuna detector

The critical open questions, isolated — the gaps a sharp analyst challenges before committing.

Red-flag register

Conditions fire automatically: indicative-only power, unsigned ESAs, queue position, FX risk.

Phase-readiness

A front-loading view: on-gate, due-now, or carrying overdue blockers as the deal advances.

Ask-the-other-side export

A tailored diligence questionnaire and printable risk report, generated in one click.

Per-discipline DD reports

Export a standalone Legal, Commercial, Financial, Technical, ESG, Insurance or Tax DD report from one project — to hand each adviser their slice.

Risk and return

Underwrite the money, not just the risk.

A project-finance model for what you build — and a cap-rate valuation for what you buy — sits beside the diligence, so the same tool that finds the gaps tells you whether the deal pays.

Capex & returns

Parametric build cost and a levered, after-tax IRR with DSCR — tuned to what you're building, from powered land to a full-stack AI cloud.

Acquisition valuation

For stabilized assets: an entry/exit cap-rate valuation on in-place NOI — going-in yield, WALT and a debt-yield-sized institutional or ABS take-out. The M&A lens beside the development model.

Stress & Monte Carlo

Drag the drivers against the market band, or run 2,000 simulations for a P10–P90 cone and the odds of clearing your hurdle.

Phased & financed

Stage capacity over time and finance each phase — and each asset layer — on its own terms. Routes and capital gates show what's left to bank it.

Whole-portfolio roll-up

Select a slate — development and stabilized together — rolled up on capital actually deployed (build cost plus purchase prices), with the development spread (build yield-on-cost vs buy-in cap), concentration, the capital-call schedule, a blended return and the correlated risks across the book.

Global coverage

The brain knows the local rules.

Twelve market tiers and forty-plus jurisdictions, each with the named grid operator, permitting regime and FDI screening statute — injected automatically as you type the country.

Drop in the teaser. Get challenged.

Add your Claude API key and Megawatt IQ reads an uploaded deck or IM, auto-fills what it can evidence and flags the risks a sharp analyst would push on — then researches the web to verify facts with sources, briefs the jurisdiction's political and country risk, and drafts the IC memo. AI answers are tagged and never overwrite your input; the key stays in your browser. Optional — the brain works fully without it.
