How to read this report

Novelty Score (0–100)

Measures how differentiated this product's technical approach is. Combines three signals: Uniqueness (40%) — fewer products on the same papers means a more unique approach. Research Recency (30%) — building on recent papers (2020+) suggests cutting-edge work; older papers (pre-2015) are more commoditized. Founder Authorship (30%) — if the founder authored the underlying papers, they have deep domain expertise and a technical moat.

Research Lineage

The academic papers this product builds on. Each link has a source type (who declared it: the maintainer, automated extraction from READMEs, community contribution, or AI detection) and a confidence score (0–100%). Higher confidence = stronger evidence.

Competitive Map

Other products that build on the same research papers. The overlap % shows what fraction of this product's papers are shared. 100% overlap = building on identical research. 10% = mostly different foundations.

Domain Trends

Are the domains this product operates in accelerating (more products being built recently), steady, or slowing? Based on the rate of new paper-to-product links over the last 30 and 90 days.

Paper Adoption Timeline

Shows when each product adopted each paper. If many products adopted the same paper recently, it's a trending technique. If only this product uses it, it's a differentiated bet.

Domain Trends

Is this product's domain accelerating or cooling down? Based on new paper→product links over time

About this report

Research lineage is based on builder-declared paper links with provenance tracking. Novelty scores are computed from paper uniqueness (fewer products = more novel), research recency, and founder authorship. Competitive maps show other products building on the same research papers. This is not investment advice.
