Hey, welcome to Decoded Startups.

Before you dive in, here are a few things worth knowing about how this site works and what you can expect from us (and what we’d expect from you).

How You Can Use This Site

Everything here, the articles, breakdowns, revenue deep-dives, and strategy guides, is meant to inform and inspire. Use it for good. Don’t use it to do anything illegal, and please don’t try to hack, spam, or break the site. That’s really all we ask.

Our Content Is Ours (But We’re Happy You’re Reading It)

The writing, graphics, logos, and analysis on Decoded Startups belong to us. If you’d like to share or republish something, just reach out first, we’re usually pretty reasonable about it.

We Do Our Best, But We’re Not Perfect

We work hard to make sure the startup data, revenue estimates, and business breakdowns you read here are accurate and well-researched. But the startup world moves fast, and some information is based on publicly available data that may not always tell the whole story. Use what you find here as a starting point, not a final answer.

Links to Other Sites

Sometimes we’ll link out to other websites. Those are their own thing, we don’t control them and can’t be responsible for what’s on them. Click wisely.

A Word on Decisions

We love that you’re here learning and building. But please don’t make major business or financial decisions based solely on what you read on this site. Do your own research, talk to experts, and make the call that’s right for your specific situation. We’re not liable for outcomes that follow from information here.

These Terms May Change

If we update these terms, we’ll post the changes here. Nothing sneaky, just the usual housekeeping.

Questions?

If anything here is unclear or you want to get in touch, you can reach us through the website. We’re real people, and we do read messages.
