    Understanding Modern Scams: How AI Is Changing the Game

    One thing people don’t talk about enough is fatigue. When every message could be fake, people either become paranoid or careless. Both outcomes help scammers. AI didn’t just improve scams, it increased mental load on everyone.

    Understanding Modern Scams: How AI Is Changing the Game

    I’ve been following scam trends for years, and this feels like a real turning point. The scams themselves aren’t new, but the delivery is. When messages are personalized, grammatically correct, and emotionally tuned, even cautious people hesitate. That hesitation is where the damage happens.

    Scott Kitun and the rise of custom music through Songfinch

    One more thought: industry press coverage that focuses on the product or company growth — even if it doesn’t mention the founder by name — can still reflect back on the founder’s public footprint. For example, the Inc. ranking and the articles about Songfinch’s marketplace success tell you the...

    Scott Kitun and the rise of custom music through Songfinch

    One thing I sometimes look for beyond interviews and business data is how a founder’s previous ventures are referenced in other public records. In Kitun’s case, his experience with Technori and as an investor in startup ecosystems shows a broader pattern of entrepreneurship. Those details might...

    Public background on Dmitry Malin and the Novakid education platform

    That’s exactly what caught my eye too. The interview piece is very narrative, but knowing that there’s external investment and measurable platform growth helps anchor it. I’m still figuring out how much weight to put on the founder’s personal story versus these business signals when thinking...

    Public background on Dmitry Malin and the Novakid education platform

    I came across a profile of Dmitry Malin, who is publicly described as a co-founder and operations leader for Novakid, an online English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) learning platform geared toward children. The profile highlights his role in building and managing remote teams and helping the...

    Founder profile of Pavel Osokin and the development of AMAI

    That’s helpful. I hadn’t thought to weigh profile elements like mentoring roles and ecosystem involvement as part of the founder’s public footprint. It does feel like part of understanding someone’s background beyond just the company narrative.

    Founder profile of Pavel Osokin and the development of AMAI

    That’s what stood out to me too. It feels like a lot of the pieces are either interviews or coming from startup review sites that echo the founder narrative. I’d be curious to see if there are any evaluations of the technology itself or use cases described in independent sources rather than...

    I came across a founder profile of Pavel Osokin, who is described as the co-founder and CEO of AMAI, a technology startup based in San Francisco that develops highly realistic AI voice engines and conversational voice synthesis tools. Public profiles note that Osokin has about 15 years of...

    Professional profile of Jim Raptis and his visual content software

    When I review founders like this, I tend to look for hard usage indicators in addition to interview narratives. One interesting thing I found about BrandBird is that some SaaS data sites list revenue figures and growth — including revenue around $70k and a small team structure — which suggests...

    Professional profile of Mary Marsh and the Aim2Assist venture

    Thanks for sharing this. On Mary Marsh and Aim2Assist, I also noticed that the core public info is narrative-driven, mostly from founder interviews and company-related pages. That tells me a lot about her career journey and why she started the business, but not as much about external validation...

    Public background on Josh Haynam and the Interact quiz platform

    That’s helpful context. I wasn’t sure how much to weigh the founder storytelling versus more concrete usage indications. Seeing consistent references to how many businesses use Interact — even if it’s from founder comments — does add something beyond just the narrative itself.

    Public background on Josh Haynam and the Interact quiz platform

    I recently read a founder profile of Josh Haynam, who is described as the co-founder and CEO of Interact, a quiz building and interactive content platform used by many businesses for lead generation and audience engagement. Public information shows that Interact was started in 2013 by Haynam and...

    Founder profile of Aman Goel and the journey of Cogno AI

    One thing to remember is that founder interviews naturally focus on the person’s journey and perspective, which is fine for narrative but not enough on its own to form a full picture. If you can find things like LinkedIn career history, company profiles, acquisition announcements, and client...

    Professional profile of Megan Preston Meyer as an author and communications consultant

    One thing I check for founder profiles like this is mention in local press or regional news, which sometimes happens when authors release niche educational books. I saw a brief mention in a regional newspaper about her work introducing kids to business concepts with these stories, and that helps...

    Professional profile of Megan Preston Meyer as an author and communications consultant

    I agree with UserOne. In cases like this, founder interviews and personal site content can be great for understanding background and what the project is meant to do. I also tend to look for mentions in independent outlets — for example the supply chain article that talks about the Supply Jane &...

    What’s publicly known about Debra Harris and the Hush Tours concept

    I was reading about Debra Harris, who is publicly described as the founder of Hush Tours Inc, a New York City sightseeing company that focuses on hip-hop history and culture. According to interviews and tourism features, Harris is a Bronx native who started the business in the early 2000s with...

    Founder profile of Ian Robertson in investment and proxy transparency

    One thing that stood out to me when I looked into this is that OxProx is still early stage and hiring a CEO separate from the founder, which suggests it’s transitioning from academic concept to operational venture. That’s a kind of public signal in itself — a structured leadership beyond just...

    Public background on Gabriel Munnich and Design with FRANK

    That’s helpful. I did see some design-oriented coverage, which suggests the project exists beyond the interview, but it’s still mostly narrative about the goals rather than adoption or impact. I’m trying to gauge what can be reasonably concluded from public profiles when there’s not much outside...

    I recently read a profile about Gabriel Munnich, who is described publicly as a co-founder of Design with FRANK, a software project that aims to make architectural design more accessible by embedding design intelligence into a user-friendly interface. According to the material, Munnich has...
