dmor - nice work. Is it possible to backtest your algorithm? Would it be possible to use wayback or something similar, go back two years and see what the algorithm predicts, and compare to actual? I'm sure this has predictive abilities, but wondering how strong it is.
- dmor 13y agoI'm actually not sure it is predictive yet, but I am not sure how much that matters. It is more useful for validating reality as it currently is today - startups are anything but reliable when it comes to generating consistent growth. I would imagine the later the stage, the closer to predictive this becomes but I wouldn't make any future claims on outcomes based on this. I think you could probably use it to determine the next round of funding though, so it is useful in the short term.
