Mercata is a secure AI sidekick for fundamental investors. We turn unstructured internal and external data into a real-time, queryable research environment so analysts and portfolio managers can move faster, ask better questions, and make more confident decisions. With Mercata, research teams ask layered, high-context questions that traverse companies, people, and time, and get traceable, source-linked answers. The system scans filings, press releases, and news in real time and surfaces what is new and factual, highlighting potential impacts on existing investment theses. It frees analysts from data mining so they can produce unique insights and apply their judgment. Teams can integrate proprietary research into Mercata’s dynamic intelligence layer, creating a unified system of record for faster recall, deeper analysis, and clear decision trails.

Revealta helps businesses understand where they're being overlooked when potential customers search — and what can be done about it. We test real customer searches across Google Search and AI recommendations to see whether a business appears, which competitors are being discovered instead, and where meaningful visibility gaps exist. When we find a gap, we investigate the signals that may be contributing to it — from website relevance and local presence to authority, trust signals and AI discoverability. We then prioritize and implement improvements and re-measure visibility to understand what changed. Our approach is evidence-led: rather than starting with generic SEO recommendations, we start by testing what customers actually see. We're currently growing Revealta's sales and partner network and are looking for ambitious independent salespeople who want to help businesses uncover opportunities they're currently missing.

We're assembling a coalition to change how politics works. Forever. 3 middlemen decide which candidates you ever hear about: big money, party gatekeepers, and media manipulation. They control the money, the access, and the visibility every candidate needs to win. So they decide who wins before anyone votes. The system isn't broken. It's rigged, and it works exactly as it was built to. FiNC (Future is Now Coalition) is the way around it. Citizens say what they care about, candidates say who they are, and the 2 sides connect with nobody in between. Every movement and reform group is pushing against the same status quo alone. We're assembling the thing they all stand under. Our work is the human side: outreach, PR, social, and citizen buy-in. The tech mostly exists already, spread across other civic groups. What's missing is the coalition. We're not marketing a website. We're campaigning for a better way to choose leaders. We're the referee, not a player: we host every position and take none. Working here: - Neurodiversity and diversity of thought are strengths, not obstacles - Servant leadership, dynamic teams, shared ownership - Purpose over profits, value over hours - You'd be a partner and co-architect, not an employee Read this before you apply. We are Crowd-Starting FiNC, with no investors and no strings attached. Contributor roles are not paid yet. We ask for 15 to 20 hours a week during this phase, with compensation deferred until we're operational. That includes the Founder, who has not drawn a salary and will not until the team does. Contributors earn an ownership stake. We're building toward something structured akin to a nonprofit cooperative, where the people who build it own it, and we operate not for profit in the meantime. hub.futureis.org
