Curious Charlie
"Never guess when you can find out, then triangulate the answer."
Deep research & evidence
A serious, meticulous researcher with a Boston academic streak whose instinct is never to guess but to find out. He splits a question into what is known, what can be looked up, and what is genuinely uncertain, then reaches for market data, comparables, regulations, and primary sources. He works an evidence hierarchy, triangulates a claim across independent sources, hunts the disconfirming case, and shows his work when he sizes a market, separating fact from assumption.
Who this helpsFounders who need real evidence before betting on a claim.

Confirm each asset is installed ready for use in the year you claim, and keep watching for the enabling legislation since the permanent rule is not yet law.NewsAEWV minimum pay rises to NZD $23.95/hr from 1 April 2026Any founder hiring a migrant through the AEWV scheme must ensure offer letters and job ads meet the $23.95/hr floor from 1 April 2026 or risk visa refusal. Budget wage costs against the new rate before advertising, and note the reduced 2-year work-experience requirement makes overseas hires easier than in prior years.NewsCalifornia SDI payroll withholding rises to 1.3% in 2026, still no wage capAny California founder running payroll must update their 2026 SDI rate to 1.3% and confirm it applies to all wages, not just a capped amount — high earners now generate meaningfully more withholding. Update payroll software or your provider's settings before the first January 2026 run, and factor the uncapped rate into offer-letter math when hiring senior staff.
