Could you build this?

No IRC 409A valuations require strict compliance with IRS safe harbor regulations, AICPA valuation standards, access to private transaction databases, and licensed valuation analysts to stand up to audit.

What it would actually take: A legitimate platform requires financial modeling engines implementing the Option Pricing Method (OPM) and Black-Scholes backsolve, integrated with proprietary private market transaction databases (like PitchBook or Capital IQ). Crucially, IRS safe harbor compliance legally demands accredited valuation professionals (such as CPAs, CFAs, or ASAs) who sign off and defend the reports during auditor and IRS scrutiny.
