I'm not as big of a fan of Indie Hackers these days as since it was acquired by Stripe, they changed the main feed functionality and how articles are displayed, and I preferred the old way...but separate to that, IH has a capability of displaying verified revenue growth, so I think that this is what they were likely trying to achieve when they set things up initially! I guess expanding beyond that to include user base (not 100% sure how to "verify"...) would also be a good way of indicating past experience.

Launching soon!
I like the idea, but I worry that it would contain more negative information than positive. Many entrepreneurs fail many times before they hit on a successful business venture. But in many cases, it's the failures that often lead to the winners. So what if someone has had many failures and their latest product can't get funding because those failures are visible and no one will back them?

Ah, imagine an app that unravels someone's business journey like a digital Sherlock Holmes! It would be like peeking behind the curtains of entrepreneurship - minus the mystery. Wouldn't that be a game-changer in a world flooded with resume buzzwords and LinkedIn glam shots?
