Analyze a startup from three perspectives — VC investor, job applicant, and CEO/founder — covering market, traction, unit economics, team, defensibility, runway, equity value, culture, and competitive position, with a verdict for each. Use this skill whenever the user wants to evaluate a startup or private tech company: due diligence, whether to invest in it or join it, weighing a startup job offer, company health, outlook, or competitive position, or open-ended asks such as "what do you think of [company]" or "research [company] for me".

# Startup Analysis

Produces a multi-perspective analysis of a startup, examining it through three lenses that each reveal different aspects of company health and potential:

1. **VC Investor Lens** — Is this a good investment? Market size, unit economics, growth trajectory, team quality, defensibility
2. **Job Applicant Lens** — Should I work here? Equity value, runway risk, culture signals, career growth, compensation fairness
3. **CEO/Founder Lens** — How healthy is this company? Product-market fit, burn efficiency, competitive moat, organizational health

Each perspective surfaces insights the others miss. A company can be a great investment but a terrible place to work (or vice versa). The goal is to give the user a 360-degree view so they can make informed decisions.
