Questions
- Does the product become more useful as operational context accumulates?
- Can it reach a narrow wedge before expanding across a workflow?
- Is the founder close enough to the work to see what horizontal software misses?
- Can the partnership preserve technical ambition without forcing premature scale?
- Can the product win without relying on a single incentive regime?
- Is deployment designed for the realities of existing infrastructure?
- Does each installation improve the next?
- Does the capital plan match the physical pace of deployment and proof?
