The global opportunity for AI-driven matching platforms like Cosolvent to unlock value in thin markets and long tail B2B segments represents a $3-5 trillion annual transaction value opportunity, with potential to capture $200-400 billion in incremental revenue through improved market…
Cosolvent is not a finished product. It’s an experiment—an open-source playground designed to test the possibilities and limits of AI-enhanced market matching. The Unknowns: These are open questions. Cosolvent is being released not as a polished solution, but as a…
Thin Market Characteristics Assessment Information Asymmetry: HIGH Complex Matching Criteria: VERY HIGH Scattered Participants: MODERATE Economic Viability Analysis Transaction Value vs. Platform Costs: STRONG Friction Cost Reduction: VERY HIGH Risk Mitigation Value: EXTREMELY HIGH Revenue Model Potential Pricing Power: STRONG…
It’s early days, but Cosolvent’s approach to using AI to facilitate thin markets has a vast range of potential applications. Here is a list of 100 potential uses. Cosolvent probably won’t be asked to address many of them, but…
As powerful as Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) can be, they come with real risks—especially when applied to market matching in thin and high-stakes environments. Common Risks: How Cosolvent Minimizes These Risks: Cosolvent’s approach blends automation with…
