Venture capital, startups and investing, on tape.
Every prediction, opinion and bold claim from the Startup Ideas Podcast: extracted from the transcript, verified against the tape, checked against cited public sources, playable at the exact moment it was said.

every statement was checked. The predictions and assertions are the claims: statements the public record can support or contradict. Of those 1,791 claims, 681 carry an assessment, 78 are not yet assessed, and 1,032 name no date, number or outcome precise enough to pin down. The rest (opinions, what ifs, insights) carry no assessment because the record can never settle them.
Powered by StarZero: transcripts that keep every stumble, speaker identity, and playback that starts at the exact word. An agentic research harness does the extraction, verification and grounded fact checking · how it works → · we audit our assessments →
