Problem

Accelerator and VC analysts investing in AI startups struggle to identify 'thin AI wrapper' businesses. Evaluating a target's technical moat and substitutability takes 5–8 hours per deal per analyst, and losses from investing in wrapper businesses with no defensibility are increasing due to insufficient technical expertise.

Solution

A SaaS audit framework that systematically analyzes an AI startup's tech stack, API dependency, and differentiation factors. Input the target's GitHub repos, tech blog, and product demos to automatically calculate an 'AI Wrapper Risk Score,' technical moat level, and LLM API dependency ratio.

Target: Early-stage AI startup investment analysts at accelerators and VCs (teams of 3–10), aged 30–40
Revenue Model: Audit Report at ~$149/report (~199,000 KRW), Monthly Subscription at ~$224/month (~299,000 KRW, includes 5 reports). 30% discount for annual contracts.
Ecosystem Role: Regulation
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
