ABOUT US

Why We Exist

Startup Researcher exists to turn startup and venture information into clear, actionable insight, and to support founders directly, helping them move faster, stay focused, and scale with confidence.

Our Vision

Our vision is to become the operating system and infrastructure for the startup world, combining signal-first intelligence with hands-on support that helps founders and teams execute, communicate, and scale.

What We Deliver

Signal-First Intelligence

Startup ecosystems produce endless updates, but very little usable clarity. We filter the noise, verify what matters, and turn it into insight you can act on, whether you are building, investing, or running an ecosystem program.

Founder and Team Enablement

We support founders with work that saves time and reduces uncertainty. That means sharper focus, clearer decisions, and stronger execution, so teams spend less energy on confusion and more on building.

Outputs That Create Leverage

We create work that travels, internally and externally. The kind of outputs that align teams, accelerate conversations, and make the story easier to repeat correctly.

Infrastructure, Not Just Content

We’re building beyond content into infrastructure, a platform layer that makes discovery, understanding, and execution easier across the global startup ecosystem.

Team and Culture

Startup Researcher is powered by a multidisciplinary team spanning journalism, research, venture analysis, design, and product. We work in tight, cross-functional squads that ship quickly, pressure-test every claim, and keep the bar high on clarity and credibility.

Collaboration sits at the core of our workflow. We default to open feedback loops, shared standards, and weekly review rhythms that surface what worked, what didn’t, and what we’re improving next.

Our culture is underpinned by five guiding values:

Truth and rigor

We verify before we publish, and we validate before we recommend. Whether it’s a story or a deliverable, credibility is the baseline.

Clarity that drives action

We turn complexity into decisions. The standard is simple: if it’s not understandable and usable fast, it’s not done.

Craft and standards

We care about the finish. Strong thinking deserves strong execution, in writing, research, and how work is presented.

Partnership mindset

We take accountability, communicate directly, and optimize for long-term trust. When we support a team, we treat outcomes like they matter, because they do.

Continuous learning and iteration

We improve through tight loops: test, review, refine. Markets move, so we evolve with them.

Partners and Supporters

Startup Researcher is built with and alongside the ecosystem. Partners and supporters help expand our reach, strengthen our research, and bring practical value to founders and investors across regions.
