When it comes to investing, our pipeline methodology contemplates four dimensions:
I. FROC'ing
FROC refers to "Front Running Opportunity Cost". How much are you leaving on the table to pursue your vision? Others look obliquely at this signal. Our model places it front and center.
II. Glove Theory
Before, folks had to learn tech. These days, the tech learns us, converging to glove-like personalization. Now ain't the time for clunky, awkward interfaces. Instead, let's promulgate a renaissance in usability and human-centered design. Example: coffee agent, for degenerates who order coffee drinks for delivery.
III. Future-fwd
Legacy, "Portugese" VC needs to validate the founder's vision. But what about the opposite, preferring stuff that can't be well-modeled? At DIY Lithium, we develop an instinct for the unprovable. Real misfits FROC millions.
IV. Overflow
Of course, the front line of attack is overflow from our incubator. We have lifetimes of stuff. Please steal our ideas.
