vc-founder-assessment

What problem does it solve?

Provide rigorous, evidence-driven research to determine whether specific founders and their teams have the experience, domain insight, and execution capability required to succeed in early-stage, founder-led investments. The output clarifies founder-market fit, surfaces objective prior-outcome signals, and identifies team gaps that materially affect investment risk.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured multi-wave research: Parallel searches for career histories, prior outcomes, public presence, and team composition to build verifiable evidence rather than impressions.
• Member-level pattern matching: Compares founders to an investor's conviction_patterns JSONB to surface alignment with historical backing patterns without making recommendations.
• Actionable output: Produces a standardized founder-assessment.md with founder profiles, team composition, founder-market fit judgment, hard questions, data gaps, and flags for follow-up.
• Use Case: Ideal for VC analysts running due diligence on early-stage deals where the team is the primary investment thesis, or for integration into a vc-diligence-brief pipeline.
