A resume rarely captures entrepreneurial behaviour. It optimises for the past, not for emergence.
§ Build Passport · v0
Every Loop leaves evidence.
The Build Passport documents entrepreneurial learning through interviews, experiments, prototypes, decisions and market signals - owned by the participant.
§ 01 - What it tracks
Ten categories of founder-grade evidence.
Everything a resume hides and a pitch deck flattens.
- Customer interviews
- Verbatims
- Prototypes
- Tests & experiments
- Pivots & kills
- Sales attempts
- First revenue
- Learning logs
- Team contributions
- Impact observations
§ 02 - Why it matters01 - Resumes 02 - Pitch decks 03 - Pre-startup 04 - Observable
Founder emergence happens before startups exist.
Resumes capture roles. Pitch decks compress narrative. Neither captures the behaviour that predicts a founder.
Pitch decks reward narrative compression. They hide failed experiments and quiet learning.
The decisive founder signals appear before the company. They live in interviews, tests, and decisions.
Observable evidence creates better signals - for ecosystems, operators, and venture partners.
Proof beats pitch.
§ 03 - Ethics
We do not sell students.
The Build Passport exists for the participant first. Visibility is opt-in, withdrawable, and never automatic.
- Participant-owned evidence
- Explicit, informed consent
- Opt-in visibility for operators and partners
- Right to withdraw evidence at any time
- No hidden scoring or shadow ranking
- Strict separation and protection of minors
§ 04 - Future evolution
Evidence becomes recognition, never ranking.
Future layers may extend the passport with operator-validated artifacts. Evolution is opt-in and always under participant control.
- Skill certifications
- Founder signals
- Operator validation
- Ecosystem recognition
- Venture visibility (opt-in)
