What is Agent Ridge?
Agent Ridge tests the security of e-commerce sites and web platforms. The AI explores checkout flows, accounts, roles, private areas and exposed data within the scope you authorize, confirms vulnerabilities with evidence and reproduction steps, and exports a PDF report for your developer or agency. The audit engine runs locally on Mac or Windows, so results stay on your machine. Ideal before a launch or Black Friday, after a redesign, or after every update.

Cliff's unit-economics discipline is simple: if CAC is covered by the first payment, every subsequent renewal is profit. This framing forces creative and channel decisions to optimize for first payment conversion, not just installs or trial starts. It also means the team can scale spend confidently because they know the math works on day one — they don't have to bet on long-tail retention to justify acquisition costs.
we've had cases where the founder is like I've burned out here the keys I'm out in four weeks that doesn't really help the price then we have other cases where the founder is like I'm going to put half of my proceeds from the sale into that earnout well that founder is really putting his money with his mouth is and then of course we're able to pay more
Reinvesting half your earnout signals conviction — and unlocks a higher price
An earnout structure where the founder reinvests half their proceeds signals real conviction and unlocks a higher headline price. Burned-out founders handing over the keys in four weeks should expect a discount — alignment between exit terms and founder intent is priced in. The willingness to stay is the proof the business has a future.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
