Wire
Evidence-backed startup intelligence. In active development.
Wire is designed to help investors, scouts, and startup researchers follow private-market activity without losing the evidence trail. Claims are segregated by truth type — confirmed fact, media-derived narrative, or model-only inference — so fast-moving stories stay auditable.
The design walkthrough below shows where Wire is going. The founding slice — ranked daily brief, claim and evidence architecture, and portable research receipts — is built and running in code. The broader terminal shell is in design prototype form.
Design Walkthrough
The screens below are design prototypes. They show the intended research loop — spot the signal, open the company record, keep the evidence trail intact — not the current product surface.
Today View
Start with the ranked daily brief and see which companies, launches, or developments deserve attention before the session disappears into open tabs.
Company Profile
Open the company record to review the timeline, key people, source inventory, and claim register in one place instead of rebuilding the picture by hand.
Media Room
See how live discussion, transcript context, quotes, and entity mentions stay connected to the same research object instead of living in a separate media silo.
Why Startup Research Breaks Down
Private-market research is unusually noisy. The first useful signal often shows up in media, transcripts, launch chatter, or hiring behavior long before the story is settled. The problem is not finding more content. It is turning messy signal into something a team can actually review and reuse.
The First Signal Arrives In Messy Places
Important company movement often surfaces in podcasts, broadcasts, transcripts, launches, hiring changes, or second-order online behavior before there is a clean formal announcement.
The Evidence Trail Falls Apart
By the time someone revisits the story, the claims, links, quotes, and supporting sources are usually scattered across tabs, notes, screenshots, and half-finished documents.
The Useful Output Does Not Survive
A good research session should leave behind something durable: a company view, a claim trail, and a record of what was worth tracking. Most tools do not preserve that.
What's Built Today
The founding slice is the part of Wire that's implemented in code. The broader terminal — dossier, compare view, founder profiles, market map — is in design prototype form, not live product.
Daily Brief With Ranked Signals
A ranked briefing surface with entity following, watchlists, and live context. The founding slice of the product — the part that already works in code.
Claim And Evidence Architecture
Every claim links back to its source. The truth-type tagging (confirmed fact, media-derived narrative, model-only inference) is enforced at the schema layer, not added later as metadata.
Portable Research Receipts
Research state is designed to be exportable — the goal is a receipt a scout can forward outside the product without losing provenance.
