Location: Remote · Type: Independent contractor · Hours: Flexible hours · Payouts: Weekly

Overview

Models love a founder's story and can't tell a real market from a rounded-up one: a TAM built by multiplying optimism, traction metrics that don't cohort, a moat that's really just a feature. Someone has to separate the venture-scale bet from the nice small business, and that someone is you.

As a Venture Capitalist you'll evaluate AI-built startup diligence and market analysis, check the sizing and the signal, and write the judgments that teach models how early-stage bets are really made.

What you’ll actually do

• Evaluate AI startup diligence: the market, the team, the product, and whether the opportunity is venture-scale at all.
• Break down the market math: TAM built bottom-up, unit economics, and traction that actually cohorts.
• Write the investment memo when the model falls short, honest about the risk and the reason to fund anyway.
