ValWithProof Get started

Validate your startup idea with proof, not opinions.

ValWithProof turns your idea into an evidence-backed report, a working prototype, the right APIs, and answers from industry experts — before you write a single line of code.

Founders and mentors both start here. Reports, prototypes and API recommendations are free — the only thing that costs anything is time with a mentor, and they set that price.

Four features, one idea

Everything between “I have an idea” and “I know it works.”

Each one is a complete engine in its own right. You write your idea once and it runs through all four — no feature asks you to type it again.

Reports

Your idea scored against 278,288 real records — hybrid lexical and semantic retrieval, no language model inventing numbers.

Prototypes

A themed, navigable set of screens built from the same paragraph, in about 58 milliseconds, exportable as a runnable React project.

APIs

The capabilities those screens imply, matched to a catalogue of real APIs and ranked by what your product actually needs.

Experts

Operators who have shipped something like it. They set their own price, and many list sessions as free.

How it works

One paragraph in. Four kinds of proof out.

No account setup, no configuration, no waiting on a model to think about it.

Describe the idea

A paragraph of plain English, entered once. Nothing structured, no forms, no taxonomy to learn.

Get scored against reality

Your idea is matched against 278,288 real records — hybrid lexical and semantic retrieval, no language model inventing numbers.

See it as a product

The prototype generator reads the same idea and builds a themed, navigable set of screens, then exports a runnable React project.

Line up what you need

The APIs those screens imply, ranked. Then the operators who have shipped something like it — free to meet.

FAQ

The questions worth asking first.

Where do the numbers come from?

From retrieval over 278,288 real records, using TF-IDF with a 160-dimension SVD and a hybrid lexical/semantic blend. No number in a report is generated by a language model. That constraint is the entire point of the product, and it is why the Reports engine loads a real index at startup rather than calling an API.

Do I have to describe my idea four times?

No — once. It is the only input in the product. The report scores it, the generator builds screens from it, the API engine reads it for the capabilities it implies, and the expert brief is matched on the same text. Change it on the home page and every feature picks up the new one.

Is the prototype generated by AI?

No. It is deterministic — rules, templates and an industry classifier trained offline on 75,658 startup descriptions. The same idea produces the same prototype every time, in about 58 milliseconds, with no network call. What you get is a themed set of screens with navigation and flows, exportable as a runnable React + Vite project.

What does it cost?

Reports, prototypes and API recommendations are free — generate as many as you like, download them, export the code. The only thing that costs anything is time with a mentor, and the mentor sets that price themselves; many list sessions as free. You see the exact amount before you book, in rupees, with the platform fee shown as a separate line.

Do I need any API keys to run this?

No. Every feature runs on its bundled data with no keys set — the API engine falls back to a catalogue of 76 APIs and deterministic extraction, and the other three never call out at all. Adding a language-model key improves the prose in API explanations; it does not change any score.

The people behind ValWithProof

A founding team building evidence-first validation.

Seven of us, working on the same problem: that founders are asked to bet a year of their life on an opinion. Every number this product shows is arithmetic on records that exist.

Get started

Bring the idea. We will bring the evidence.

Founders validate an idea and book mentors. Mentors keep a profile, set their own price and take sessions. Both start at the same door.
