Startup Analysis

One startup, three verdicts: would a VC invest, would you take the job, and how healthy is it from the founder's chair, with the evidence shown.

⚠️ **Trading warning / Avertissement trading** : informational only, not investment advice. A startup verdict built from public information is a structured opinion, not diligence-grade proof: private financials are usually invisible, early-stage investing and startup equity carry a real risk of loss up to the whole amount, and no score here is a promise of return or of a successful exit. Curated by Skill Harbor: a three-lens research report for any startup or private tech company. The VC investor lens weighs market size and timing, product-market fit signals, unit economics (customer acquisition cost, lifetime value, burn multiple), team quality and defensibility, and ends in an investment verdict from strong pass to strong invest with a bull thesis and key risks. The job applicant lens weighs runway and burn, what an equity package could realistically be worth after dilution and preferences, career growth, culture signals and red flags like high turnover or constant pivots, and ends in a join verdict. The CEO and founder lens weighs product-market fit, growth efficiency, competitive position, organizational health and fundraising readiness, and ends in a health grade from critical to exceptional. A closing synthesis shows where the three lenses agree (probably real), where they diverge (a company can be exciting for investors and risky for employees at the same time), and the bottom line for your situation. Research comes from web search, the company site, press and other public sources, using its three included framework files for criteria and benchmarks. From the himself65/finance-skills repository (MIT). Honest caveats: when public information is thin, the skill is told to ask you for the company website URL or a deck or listing rather than guess, and to state its confidence instead of fabricating metrics; revenue and runway for private companies are often inferred from indirect signals like hiring pace and customer logos, so treat precise-looking numbers as estimates; and the verdict scales are judgment aids for a decision that stays yours. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use.

How to check a build before installing →

After installation, ask me if I want to leave private feedback
Private for now: only the Skill Harbor team sees it. Sellers may be looped in later.

Use "Startup Analysis" with your Muse. Prerequisites: web search access for your agent, and the company website URL if the startup is small or little covered (the skill will ask for it rather than guess). No API key and no paid database are required; Crunchbase or PitchBook links help if you have them, since private financials are not public. 1. Open the skill: https://github.com/himself65/finance-skills/blob/main/plugins/startup-tools/skills/startup-analysis/SKILL.md and copy the full SKILL.md text (the skill also reads its included references/ framework files for the VC, job applicant and CEO lenses, keep the repo folder handy). 2. Paste it into a chat with Muse and add: "Analyze [COMPANY] from all three perspectives: VC investor, job applicant, and CEO. Give me the three verdicts up front, the evidence behind each, and the cross-perspective synthesis." 3. Say which chair you sit in (investing, joining, or running it) so the report leads with your lens, and challenge any metric that arrives without a public source behind it. Tip: paste the job listing or the offer terms when you have them; the equity and runway sections get much sharper with the real numbers instead of sector guesses. Safety: a skill is plain-text instructions; it runs nothing by itself. Verdicts are research aids built on public data, not diligence and not a recommendation. Informational only, not investment advice.

Questions

How do I install a build?

Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.

Where does my money go?

Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.

What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?

It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
