How CodeOpps Empowered Fanbasis to Make a Smarter Acquisition

Saturday, June 7, 2025

“The CodeOpps audit was huge for us—it completely validated our concerns and uncovered technical debt that would have taken us hundreds of days and potentially seven figures in engineering resources to remediate. Without this audit, we would have been way over budget and walking blind into the deal. It was by far the most ROI-positive investment we made throughout the acquisition process.”

Company Profile
Fanbasis is a rapidly scaling digital business platform—described as a Shopify for digital products, services, and communities—led by CEO Yash Daftary. With a ten-figure annual run rate and a recent $20 million Series A, Fanbasis is building the operating system for modern digital businesses.

The Challenge: Navigating a High-Stakes Acquisition
As Fanbasis considered acquiring a complementary software platform, the leadership team recognized the need for a comprehensive code audit. Their CTO, experienced in M&A from his time at Salesforce, conducted a preliminary review but sought an independent, expert assessment to validate concerns and uncover hidden technical risks.

Before engaging CodeOpps, Fanbasis suspected that the target company’s technical infrastructure was not as robust as claimed. The team needed an objective evaluation to understand the true state of the codebase, the extent of technical debt, and the potential impact on valuation and integration.

The Solution: Expert Code Audit by CodeOpps
Fanbasis partnered with CodeOpps to perform a thorough audit of the target company’s code. The audit was designed to:

  • Uncover hidden technical debt that could affect integration and future development.

  • Assess the impact on valuation by quantifying the resources required to remediate issues.

  • Provide an objective, third-party perspective to inform strategic decision-making.
