GoodGoblin.ai is the ultimate "Admissions Operating System" designed to democratize elite college guidance. We believe expert mentorship shouldn't be a luxury for the few, so we built a data-driven platform that levels the playing field for every student. Our Four Pillars of Success Our platform guides students through the entire journey—from freshman strategy to senior year submission:   Architect (Grades 9–11): Builds a multi-year roadmap and identifies "profile gaps" early on.   Strategist (Grades 10–12): Uses data to find the perfect mix of "Reach," "Target," and "Safety" schools.   Editor (Grades 11–12): Provides 24/7 AI narrative coaching with instant feedback on clarity, story, and structure.   Analyst (Grade 12): Performs a final holistic audit to calculate real-time acceptance probabilities before you hit submit. Why It Matters Proven Results: Our users see a 31% boost in admission odds, with 97% of students securing a spot at a Top-30 university.   Radical Transparency: We show students exactly why an essay works using the same metrics admissions officers use.   Engineering Precision: We turn "guessing" into "optimizing" by analyzing millions of data points from successful applicants.   Join us in our mission to make the path to a dream university predictable, affordable, and stress-free for over 50,000 students worldwide.

Revenue Vessel is a growing, venture backed software company on a mission to revolutionize how logistics companies sell. In ten months and only a pre-seed of funding, we’ve built a fully functioning product that our customers **love,** hundreds of thousands in ARR, and a path to grow to over a $1M in revenue by Q4 of next year. Revenue Vessel is operating in the highly-specialized vertical of logistics, but we’re doing something totally different than other logistics software companies. While other companies sell to operations teams that have entirely unique, mission critical processes, we’re taking advantage of a key secret: **every logistics team sells roughly the same, and all of them are poorly served right now.** The three co-founders have strong backgrounds in the space: former Head of Demand Gen at Flexport, former top performing SDR manager at Flexport, former Head of Eng at Rutter API, respectively. This could be a billion dollar business, and we don’t need to compete with other Silicon Valley founders in order to get there. We just need your help to pull it off.
