4 predictions · 1 assertion · 5 insights · 1 disclosure · every statement was checked. The predictions and assertion are the 5 claims: statements the public record can support or contradict. 0 are resolved, 1 is not yet assessed, and 4 name no date, number or outcome precise enough to check. Everything else (opinions, insights, what ifs, disclosures) can never be settled by the record, so it carries no assessment.

How they sound: not measured why? →

We measure speaking style by listening to the audio itself, and a fair number needs at least 2,000 words from one person on tape we have measured. There is too little of Ray Meiring on measured tape to publish a rate. This says nothing about how they speak.

Meiring: RFP and proposal AI software must go vertical, not horizontal

Meiring: Startups should sell highly focused AI agents to enterprise buyers

“And I actually think it's a better time than ever for smaller companies to be selling into the enterprise with agents, because if those agents can tackle one discrete problem and do it incredibly well, that frees up the humans to do other things, there's a rea…”
