Investor Fit
| Investor style | Fit | Why |
|---|---|---|

| Competition risk (platform bundles) | High | Large platforms like ServiceNow may bundle incident management into existing suites, increasing pricing pressure. |
| Business quality | Medium | The sticky nature of incident response software provides strong retention, though growth has slowed. |
