# About Preuve AI

> **TL;DR:** Preuve AI is a startup idea validation tool founded in 2025 by Vincent Forat that scans 50+ live data sources (Crunchbase, Google Trends, Reddit, Product Hunt, G2, and more) through an agentic RAG pipeline of autonomous AI agents to score viability on a 0-100 scale, map real competitors, and surface blind spots, with thousands of ideas scanned across 13 industries and a median viability score of 55/100 where only 18.3% of ideas earn a GO verdict at 70 or above.

## What Preuve AI does

Preuve AI scans 50+ live sources to score your idea, map competitors, and surface what you cannot see. Used by thousands of entrepreneurs.

Crunchbase for funding. Reddit for real complaints. G2 for what users actually say. Every claim links to its source. CB Insights found 42% of startups fail from no market need. That is the blind spot Preuve catches.

You leave with the 3 reasons it could fail, the 2 reasons it could work, and a verdict you can defend to a business partner, an investor, or yourself.

## Common questions

### What is Preuve AI?
Preuve AI is a startup idea validation tool that scans 50+ live data sources (Crunchbase, Google Trends, Reddit, Product Hunt, G2, and more) to score your idea's viability, map competitors, and surface blind spots. Thousands of startup ideas have been scanned across 13 industries.

### How does the AI actually work?
It is an agentic RAG pipeline, not a ChatGPT prompt. Autonomous AI agents search the live web in parallel, retrieving real data from 50+ sources. Junk gets filtered out. Verified facts feed a reasoning model that scores your idea. Standard code handles deterministic logic. The AI handles only the heavy synthesis. Every claim in the report links to its source.

### Is Preuve AI just a ChatGPT wrapper?
No. Most AI tools paste your input into a prompt and return whatever the model hallucinates. Preuve AI never invents competitors, never guesses market sizes, never fabricates data. It synthesizes facts that were already retrieved and verified from live sources. Every number in the report has a clickable source link.

### Who built Preuve AI?
Preuve AI was built by Vincent, a solo founder. After watching startups fail from blind spots nobody caught, he automated the validation process into a tool that scans real market data to find what would otherwise take weeks of manual research, before you build.

> "The data are on point and the recommendations are accurate. I even discovered a copycat of my idea that launched weeks ago!" - Galilee, Entrepreneur
