Description

Flag equal participant identifiers across different supplied interviews.

Venture calculations depend on funding scope, fee bases, repayment terms, equity conventions and reporting periods. A post-money investor fraction differs from a pre-money valuation ratio, while constant-burn runway is conditional on a positive burn assumption. Interview consent and reported hypothesis support remain source-record assertions rather than verified evidence.

Flag equal participant identifiers across different supplied interviews.

When to use this tool

Use Entrepreneurship Interview Duplicate Participant Flag when you already have firstInterviewId, secondInterviewId, firstParticipantId, secondParticipantId and need to flag equal participant identifiers across different supplied interviews.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter firstInterviewId, secondInterviewId, firstParticipantId, secondParticipantId. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read duplicateParticipant, sameInterview. Inspect duplicateParticipant, sameInterview before interpreting the associated values.

Require all four IDs nonempty; sameInterview compares interview IDs, and duplicateParticipant requires distinct interview IDs with equal participant IDs.1

Limitations and assumptions

  • Comparison is literal and case-sensitive. Equal strings do not verify personal identity; identical interview IDs never set duplicateParticipant.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Reconcile the actual cash-flow forecast, financing agreement, cap table and experiment records for a venture decision. Use the full vesting and funding terms and inspect evidence quality; one balance, status label or supplied fraction does not establish feasibility, ownership or customer demand.
