Straight Arrow News is on a mission to raise the bar on journalism in a time of media bias and mistrust. We do it via fact-based reporting and hearing from both sides. Overall, our focus is serving you the truth. We report down the middle with facts. Our reporting is delivered to you without bias, filter, or spin. We are here to empower you with cutting-edge insights. With our Media Miss™ tool you can discover stories being underreported (or even not reported) by different sides of mainstream media. It is our way of making sure you have a complete picture of the news. We foster a balanced space for differing opinions. In our opinion section, we provide opposing views from our contributors with equal time for each side.

Zingage is rebuilding the infrastructure behind home care. When the system breaks, families break with it — missed visits, compliance failures, and patients left waiting are the result of fragile, manual coordination. The company’s AI agents resolve emergencies in real time, enforce compliance, ensure patients receive the care they’re promised, and free agencies to take on more families. Zingage already powers hundreds of agencies and millions of patient encounters, embedding into the operational core of home care delivery. Zingage is well-funded by tier-1 investors and backed by operators who have scaled companies such as Uber, Datadog, Tennr, and Ramp. The team values velocity, ownership, and impact — giving every new hire the opportunity to ship into production quickly and contribute directly to solving one of the hardest coordination problems in healthcare.

RewardOps has a suite of RESTful APIs that powers rewards programs of all sizes. The RewardOps team is dedicated to making rewards... well.. more rewarding! Our goal is simple — make it easier for companies to give members incentives for positive engagement. RewardOps was conceived while Azim and Jon were working together on the Recyclebank rewards program. They were frustrated by how hard it was to integrate and manage reward partners. Brands had products and offers they wanted to distribute, rewards programs had a delivery channel, and members wanted free stuff, but there was no easy way to connect all of them together. When they couldn’t find a good solution in the market, they decided to build a platform that would do exactly that, and RewardOps was born. They've been lucky enough to meet some great people along the way who shared their vision (and frustrations).

Base runs your business. It connects to the tools you already use, lets you control everything from a plain English command bar, watches your business in the background, and surfaces what needs attention before you have to ask. The morning after a product launch, every founder hits the same wall. They suddenly need a CRM, a way to send contracts, financial visibility, a hiring process, a marketing setup, and more. The default is to spend weeks sourcing, signing up and configuring multiple tools. Running each tool separately means constant context switching and no unified view of what is happening. Base solves all of that in one place by replacing the entire stack with a single workspace, operated by a plain English command bar, with a single source of truth. Base has five layers 1. Setup. Base guides founders to the right tools and connects them via a secure login in under a minute. The Foundations module walks founders through every one-time setup task: DNS records, Google Search Console, social profiles, SEO basics, and email deliverability. 2. Orchestration. A single plain English command bar controls every connected tool. Type what you need and Base routes it to the correct tool and executes it after you confirm. The founder never has to switch tabs. 3. Company brain. All data from every connected tool is unified in one place. The dashboard shows live runway, MRR, pipeline, and headcount. Ask how the business is doing and get one plain English answer across Finance, CRM, Analytics, and Email. 4. Memory. Base logs every action, command, and significant event permanently. Every contract sent, every hire made, every investor update sent. The full history is searchable. When a founder raises funding, Base generates the data room from its memory. 5. Intelligence. Base compares key metrics against industry benchmarks for founders at the same stage. Runway, MRR growth, churn rate, and pipeline coverage are all benchmarked and interpreted in plain English.

Landjourney is the all-in-one platform for agricultural lenders. We build cloud-native software that helps banks double loan-production efficiency: AI-powered origination, automated document collection, white-labeled digital servicing portals, and capital-markets tooling. Agriculture has been underserved by financial technology for decades. A new generation of farmers expects a digital experience, and lenders need to deliver it without giving up the relationships that make ag lending work. That is the gap we close. Relationships should not come at the expense of efficiency, transparency, or certainty. What we build: Origination. An AI-powered loan application with bank-specific smart suggestions that match farmers with the loans they actually qualify for, on any device, online or on the farm. Servicing. A white-labeled portal where borrowers see balances and available credit, request credit releases, and renew loans directly. Data and document collection. Upload a document and a complete loan file assembles itself, organized, data-validated, and checked for missing or inconsistent information in real time. Capital markets. An auto-decisioning model using eligibility criteria from your bank and alternative institutions, so receiving institutions never have to re-originate the loan. The platform is SOC 2 Type II compliant with bank-level security, and automates regulatory reporting requirements such as 1071. Within our first year after launch we signed one of the largest independent ag lenders and the largest cooperative client in the nation. We are a seed-stage team headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, with engineering in Boulder, Calgary and Montreal. The engineering group is small and deliberately senior, which means real ownership over the platform rather than a narrow slice of it. We look for strong work ethic, grit, humbleness, humor, and a genuine interest in the people we build for: farmers and the lenders who serve them.
