Would people pay for this service?
icey: I'm not sure about your monetization strategy, but I'm positive there would be customers for this.In 1999 I spent a lot of time helping out some investors I knew by providing technical expertise after they'd gotten burnt by people proposing things that had a lot of ocean boiling numbers and hand wavy technologies. In doing that, I saw a lot of what you saw with regards to terrible and weird presentations, but I also saw some groups that looked like they had a ton of promise but were terrible and communicating the point.That being said, you may want to consider also providing services to some of the smaller funds out there as a bullshit detector. I think by and large investors are MUCH more technologically savvy these days, but I still get the feeling that there is a fair amount of money outside of SF/NYC/Boston/London that lacks confidence for some of the more interesting technology companies.
