Venture Audit · Free
Which stage are you actually in?
The audit establishes one thing: which Stuck-to-Scale stage the venture is in, against the one you believe it is in. It qualifies in both directions — the honest outcome is sometimes not yet, and we say so directly.
The filter
The exclusions run in public.
We decline ventures where nothing is built yet, companies past $250K MRR, and consumer apps, marketplaces, hardware, crypto and DTC e-commerce.
The line that decides more engagements than any other: your co-founder is not aligned that brand and product craft matter.
What we ask
Nine fields, one that matters.
01Stage and revenue bandPre-MVP through past $250K MRR.
02What you have shippedPlainly, without the pitch.
03Where you are stuckThe field that matters. Be specific — vague in, vague out.
04What you have already triedSo we do not propose it back to you.
05Who else is on the founding teamAlignment is a qualification criterion.
06Timeline pressureA date, a runway number, a board meeting — not a dropdown of urgency.
