I spent 5 years in B2B growth - first as Growth Marketer at Bluesquare.io in Paris, helping startups and enterprises build digital products, then as an independent growth consultant working with B2B companies on RevOps, CRM (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce), marketing automation, and lead generation.
The pattern was always the same: the founders who validated hard and early survived. The ones who skipped it built beautiful products for markets that didn't exist. I watched too many founders burn months on ideas nobody wanted.
According to CB Insights, 42% of startups fail because there's no market need. That's the blind spot I built Preuve AI to catch - the tool I wish existed when I was advising startups on go-to-market.
Preuve AI is an agentic RAG pipeline - not a ChatGPT wrapper. Autonomous AI agents search the live web in parallel, retrieving real data from 40+ sources. Every claim links back to where it was found. I've analyzed 4,500+ startup ideas across 13 industries since launch. Only 18.3% earned a go verdict at 70 or above, the threshold I consider launch-ready.
