Stop guessing. See where you stand, what is missing, what each gap is worth, and the order to close them in, while it is still cheap to close.
The European standard for backability.
Helping founders and investors trust each other faster. We measure what founders and investors currently guess, and we show the path that works for both.
A venture doesn’t die of a no. It dies because it runs out of gas.

Investors are losing capital
71%
of European venture funds fail to return capital. 2002 to 2020 vintages, outside the UK. 70% inside it. In the US, 57%.
6x
Capital goes in at 6 times the rate it comes back out. 2025: 19.7bn euro invested into 4,827 companies. 3.2bn euro realised at cost from 1,211.
One failure, two victims.
The founder acts. The investor decides. The board governs.
So, what are we doing about it?
One read of a venture against one method, applied the same way every time. Where it stands on its own evidence, what is missing, what closing each gap is worth, and the order to close them in. Then it recalculates when the evidence changes, because a company at this stage moves every week.
We take no fee from any transaction, no carry from any fund, and no payment that moves with a finding.
Stop guessing. See where you stand, what is missing, what each gap is worth, and the order to close them in, while it is still cheap to close.
See the gap while it is still fixable. Help close it, or step away before it becomes a loss. Every venture read on the same basis, whoever looked and whenever.
Milestones that carry forward, instead of being rebuilt for every new reader. A named position, a named route, and a record of what was known and when.
What we never do: advise, prepare, broker, invest. We introduce nobody.

“Simply put, Brainforest would not be where it is today without Camille’s leadership and craft. She has a rare ability to bring energy and clarity to complex ideas, making her equally effective in the boardroom, in workshops, and in one-to-one founder coaching.”

“The session Camille shaped at Climate Hub Davos sparked meaningful ripples across networks and earned recognition far beyond what any organizer could have anticipated. That’s not luck. That’s the result of her thoughtful curation and her instinct for what matters.”

Where we are going.
By 2030, a serious European raise carries a Trust Exchange assessment, and its absence is what raises the question.
