Could you build this?
Partial The front-end graph visualization and search can be vibe-coded, but the product is fundamentally dependent on having access to a massive, continually refreshed proprietary B2B graph dataset of founders, education, and funding.
What it would actually take: The system requires large-scale scrapers and enrichment pipelines aggregating LinkedIn profiles, Crunchbase/PitchBook data, company registries, and university alumni lists. Behind the UI sits a dedicated graph database (like Neo4j) to compute relational paths and connection strengths, along with identity resolution algorithms to deduplicate entities across disparate corporate and educational databases.
