AI Guest Researcher
Research a podcast guest and create a concise briefing with background, work, recent activity, and talking points.
Produces the briefing a host would write if they had two spare days: who the guest is, what they have built, what they have said recently, and what is worth asking that nobody else has. It reads the interviews, the writing and the coverage, and cites where each fact came from.

Why this audience
This audience contains people making their own long-form interviews, drawn by watching the format done at length. Guest research is the invisible work behind every good episode and the first thing that gets skipped. A briefing with sources is the part they cannot fake.

Fifty thousand paying users is the ceiling every one of these pages is drawn against, not a forecast. It opens at a thousand, the bottom of the range, so the first figures you see are the modest ones. What the cap buys is comparability: the same range on every app, and the percentage of the audience it takes as the number that moves.

We fund it, build it, and run it. You bring the audience and take a share of the revenue. Nothing to pay and nothing to build.
