You should give the money to a startup with a product, traction and excited users that is founded by (a) non-dudebro(s).

Because those founders don't get the capital they need, because folks like you unfairly do.

This is because the system is zero-sum and wack, but such as it is, what I suggest is a much better place for the money to go, in terms of profitability (as well as for other obvious reasons).

From there, you should get a job at an established tech startup in a BD role.

The last part is what is likely to happen anyway, after you guys give up within the next 2-4 months. But it would be so much cooler if you did the first part before that happens.

With Good Intentions, A Non-dudebro Founder Not in Need of Capital Because of My Ability to Build Product/Traction with Little Funding

As a founder embarking on a seed round, found this article incredibly helpful. Imagine Transcriptic's raise will be a sort of landmark event as the JOBS Act figures out what it's going to mean for startup investment going forward. Thanks Max.
