About
StartupSim is a startup management game set in the AI boom. Build products, hire a team, choose models, manage compute and runway, launch into markets, react to competitors and chaos, and grow from a tiny apartment into an AI empire.
Attention & discussion velocity
Not enough snapshots yet. Run the snapshot worker every 15 min to build the time-series.
Performance
Pace needs two or more snapshots. This launch has 1, so velocity and momentum read as unmeasured rather than zero.
