ABOUT VERDIKT

Built for the question that actually matters.

"Does the evidence support this idea?" shouldn't require a week of manual research or a chatbot that hallucinates the TAM. Verdikt generates a structured research report with named risks and cited sources.

THE GAP

The gap between a hunch and a defensible memo is where founders bury three months.

Founders don't ship the wrong thing because they're not smart. They ship it because nothing closes the gap between "I have a hunch" and "I have evidence I can inspect." That gap costs three months and a hard conversation.

What's missing is the structured research a thoughtful founder would do, if they had the time and the tools to do it well.

A NOTE FROM THE COFOUNDERS

We built Verdikt because we were tired of watching founders build the wrong thing.

TUAHA

Seven years in agencies taught me a depressing pattern: confident teams shipping on bad assumptions. Beautiful decks, wrong inputs, predictable graveyards. Founders asked us to validate ideas after they'd shipped them. I wanted the verdict before the build.

"A model that won't show its sources doesn't belong in a verdict. A score that can't name what would change it is vibes in a serif font."
FARZAN

I came at it from the other side: systems that produce defensible answers, not confident ones. Every model cites, surfaces its falsifier, and runs under our providers' standard API terms, so your brief is never used to train a model. Rigor is the product.

That's why we charge real money. Frontier models and paid data cost real money to run. Cheap tools give you generic guesses. Verdikt gives you a report you can inspect.

If you have an idea you keep returning to, run it through before you spend three months building it. The output is evidence, not advice: use it to sharpen your own judgment.
