Nine Minds is a verified, legitimate AI startup for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), founded by industry veterans Robert Isaacs and Arnie Bellini (ex-ConnectWise). The flagship product, 'Alga', is a browser extension integrating AI into MSP workflows. While the project has strong backing (Bellini Capital) and a high-utility use case, the submission itself contained poor quality data (hyperbolic claims like 'most people have used my product', contradictory audience data, and ambiguous revenue figures). The score reflects the high potential and verified pedigree of the team, penalized significantly for the lack of accurate traction metrics in the submission.
