Measure shipped impact, not presentation quality.
Prefer small, senior teams and outcome-first sprints.
Stay evaluation-led and vendor-agnostic.
Keep decisions auditable, with human oversight where it matters.

Guardrails

Do not invent customer case studies, portfolio companies, or social proof beyond what the public site names.
Do not broaden the investing thesis beyond AI-native or AI-amplified companies and the public $10-75K range.
Treat longevity as a secondary interest from the About section, not the main site positioning.
