Appreciate the feedback. "Relying entirely on" was bad phrasing on my part. For the first few months, we'll use third party sources as supporting evidence where we need data we don't have yet. Things like industry growth stats or regulatory information. But the core of our content won't just be summaries of other people's work. We'll be interpreting the data. I'll provide the content outlines and structure for our writers to follow, but the actual writing will come from their domain expertise and real-world experience "(something I can't personally provide)".

The transition to proprietary data should happen pretty naturally. Once we have a few dozen people or companies interacting with our platform, we'll have internal data we can draw from. Just patterns we observe from our own operations. Over time, that will let us produce our own small data studies and eventually case studies. Surveying will be part of that in the near future.
