Problem
Founders often rely on intuition when selecting a market to pursue, lacking concrete data that links their unique experience to emerging opportunities. Simultaneously, AI agents operating in the “agent economy” have limited access to real‑time, founder‑specific market signals, reducing their ability to provide relevant recommendations.
Solution
StoryFrame delivers a dual‑surface AI platform that bridges this gap. For founders, a guided interface ingests personal and professional histories, identifies patterns across domains, and surfaces market gaps where the founder’s background offers a competitive edge, delivering a multi‑dimensional founder‑market fit score. For AI agents, an agent‑discoverable API exposes the same opportunity intelligence, allowing external agents to query real‑time signal matches and structured opportunity data without requiring user sign‑up. The platform’s inference‑first architecture emphasizes depth of analysis over raw speed, ensuring nuanced insights that can be directly integrated into both human decision‑making workflows and automated AI services.
Target Audience
Primary users are early‑stage founders seeking data‑driven guidance on market selection, and AI agents or platforms that require founder‑specific opportunity intelligence to enhance their service offerings.
