Methodology in public

Three retrospectives — what our framework would have flagged

Before you trust an investor-grade read, see the framework run on companies whose outcomes are now public. No private claims, no unnamed founders, no rewrites.

We don't publish unnamed-client testimonials. When a sponsor allows it, we'll cite them by name. Until then, our work is judged on retrospective accuracy and methodology you can read end to end.
